Expanding Access to Massage Therapy Education in Northern Manitoba

Wellington College — The Pas Campus

Wellington College is proud to offer massage therapy education in The Pas, creating greater access to professional training for northern communities.

This campus exists for a reason: to support the North by training skilled massage therapists who understand their communities and are committed to improving local health care access. Our program is designed to allow students to remain in their home region while completing a rigorous, professional education that meets industry standards.

By offering a weekend-based format, students can pursue massage therapy training without relocating, disrupting family life, or leaving existing employment—while still meeting the academic and clinical requirements of the profession.

Wellington College — The Pas Campus

  • The Pas campus offers a weekend-based massage therapy program designed for self-motivated students who need flexibility while completing a professional education.

    In-person instruction is delivered through scheduled weekend sessions focused on hands-on practical skills, clinical application, and performance-based learning. Theory components are completed independently between weekends, requiring students to manage their time effectively and arrive prepared for in-person training.

    Students are also required to complete supervised student clinic shifts to develop real-world experience in assessment, treatment planning, professionalism, and client communication.

    This program is intentionally structured to support access while maintaining clear expectations around accountability, attendance, and independent study.

    Program structure highlights:

    • In-person practical instruction delivered on scheduled weekends

    • Independent, self-directed theory completed between sessions
