BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN A LICENSE AND A SUCCESSFUL CAREER

Next Level Massage Academy

I guide new massage therapists in launching their independent practice with confidence by providing clear steps, real support, and a proven path to building a sustainable business, without the stress of having to figure it all out on their own.

THE NEXT LEVEL LAUNCH

THE FAST TRACK TO YOUR INDEPENDENT PRACTICE

Stop the trial-and-error phase. This focused three-session sprint simplifies your startup so you can get bodies on your table this week.

THE IRRESISTIBLE OFFER

Don't overcomplicate it; start selling solutions. Implement a simple, "All-Inclusive" pricing model that reflects your true expertise and eliminates client confusion.

THE WORD-OF-MOUTH ENGINE

Build a local referral network without awkward sales pitches. Use the "Transparency Script" to turn community connectors into your loudest advocates and fill your book fast.

THE FACE & SPACE STRATEGY

Master high-conversion ads without the generic "spa" stock photos. Use a simple, trust-building selfie strategy and targeted Facebook ads to bring in consistent bookings with a minimal budget.

MEET THE FOUNDER

A NEW STANDARD FOR THE INDUSTRY.

Christopher Schroeder established the Academy to elevate the industry standard, shifting from a decade of clinical practice to professional education. He is dedicated to bridging the critical gap between massage school and a fully booked practice. His goal is to give you the confidence to skip the franchise grind and successfully launch your own independent business from day one.
