Founded in 1976, Bellevue Massage School is now Washington Spa Academy.

Washington Spa Academy offers a range of educational programs in massage therapy, esthetics, reflexology training and continuing education. Approved by Washington State and Veterans Affairs, the academy equips students with the skills and knowledge needed for successful careers in the spa and wellness industry.

Our Mission

At Washington Spa Academy, we love what we do! Rather than taking a single, defined approach to massage and skincare therapy, we strive to nurture and empower each individual. Our mission is to help students discover their unique massage and skincare expression and become exceptional, confident and intuitive practitioners who facilitate the well-being of others.
