Our Spa Expert Says:

Located minutes from Mt. Rushmore, South Dakota's Black Hills Health and Education Center welcomes you to a world of education, health, and healing. Take this opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the offerings of this medical wellness and lifestyle center. Healing power is gained not simply through medicines and surgeries, which can often do more harm them help, but through the natural healing power of nutrition, exercise, sunlight, stress management, and hydration. Through utilizing these elements, the body reaches a level of health and awareness unobtainable through passive medicine.

Learn through action—that is the mission at the Black Hills Health and Education Center. Not only will you learn about nutrition, but you will experience it. Not only will you learn massage and bodywork techniques, but you will use them and experience them yourself. Not only will you learn how to become a personal trainer, but you will train and workout with other trainers as well. You will learn and you will teach, all in a safe, spiritual, and beautiful environment.

Become a certified massage therapist at the Black Hills Health and Education Center. The 700 hour course, complete with Student Massage Clinic, enables students build a solid foundation in the art of massage and to acquire the skills necessary to enter the workforce as certified massage therapists. Courses are offered in Swedish Massage, Trigger Point Therapy, Pregnancy and Infant Massage, Sports Massage, and Hydrotherapy, as well as nutrition, medical ethics, anatomy, and physiology courses.

What's in it for the lucky visitor? From April through July, guests can visit the Student Massage Clinic and get discounted massages for only about $25! All massages are supervised since they are carried out by students, but the fact that you are under relaxing, healing hands doesn't change!
