Northwest School of Animal Massage

About this Sponsor

NWSAM is the leader in animal massage and acupressure education for small and large animals. Chase your Passion with NWSAM, where the Future is in Your Hands

The Northwest School of Animal Massage was founded in 2001 in response to the growing demand for approved training programs in canine massage and equine massage in the State of Washington. Today, students seek out our programs from every state in the country and across the globe. 

NWSAM was founded on three guiding principles:

To foster compassion for the animal community

To support a higher standard of practice within our industry

To nurture the continued growth of our student body

Our faculty members are highly regarded professionals with extensive fieldwork and teaching experience. Each faculty member brings their own unique approach to the classroom and supports our online community.

Our main campus is located at Paxhia Farm, our equine retirement and rehabilitation farm on Vashon Island, WA. In addition we partner with several animal organizations around the country, including Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and several state humane societies. Our instructors have taught in Japan, Hong Kong, Mexico and Canada. Most recently we partnered with ASIS, a group of massage schools in Arizona. 

When you join the NWSAM family, you become part of a group dedicated to serving the animal, the profession and the industry.
