Sorry to learn this place closed after the founder passed away, a great Spirit has moved on. With great gratitude, Patricia Cramer, thank you! I suspect there will be a follow up act by the nearly 10K students who graduated from the school. Check Andrew University in Berkeley for some continuing related course work, as far as I know.

The difference between World School of Massage and Holistic Healing and other massage schools is that World School's focus is on true inner healing and that of facilitating healing in others. Other massage schools only teach massage. World School Program is extensive, empowering, and life changing. My reason for having chosen World School was that I was in search of a more superior program that could incorporate a more complex program above only massage modalities.
World School truly delivered a superior program and their tuition was extremely affordable for the quality program they offered in comparison to other institutions. World School is very spiritual, a safe platform in which to truly learn the art of healing from the inside out and use that knowledge to promote healing in others incorporating massage with a superior and complex knowledgebase.

World School has provided me with the tools to heal my life so that I may contribute to the well being of others with confidence and empowerment. All of the teachers work compassionately and are highly skilled. If you want to transform your life, World School of Massage & Holistic Healing Arts is for you.

This school is a scam. The owners steal from everyone with a smile by the thousands. They're bankrupt so paying back refunds comes from the pockets of new students. Patricia Cramer is psychotic and is more than likey embezelling the money to cover the cost of her highly toxic lifestyle. Avoid this place like the hippy plague it is.

I have been learning from the World School for 10 months now, and my life will never be the same. I have had emotional and physical healing, while learning a new craft. I never want to go back to the way I was, and the school has helped me press forward with more confidence and excitement than I have had in years. What they provide is a fantastic new way of living, even for an older woman like me. "Kudos World School" Victoria

The World School is a challenge to describe. I went through the massage program. It is a small school where you get what you give. They provide classes in all the standard massage practices: business, ethics, clinical health and hygiene, pathology, physiology, anatomy, kinesiology, deep tissue and Swedish massage, as well as seasonal workshops in hot stone, pre-natal, shiatsu, lymphatic, and herbal wraps too.
And It is a holistic school so, you can learn bodywork skills through the school's founder's very own vibrational healing massage therapy. Oh, and Structural foot balancing is a game changer. Everyone who goes there has a personalized schedule, curriculum and experience. Great teachers. Loveable logistics. An awesome value. It helped my find work and ideas that bring me happiness.
I was also able to take some holistic life coaching courses as part of my program. It was a series of weekend seminars in which whoever wished to attend could discuss and consider neuro-linguistics, habit, and how to live the life of one's dreams. I know it might sound like something you wouldn't want, but those are the razor sharp instincts of your punishing ego telling you you can't have what you really want.
No matter your commitment to or interest in massage or holistics or whatever - it would behoove you to go to this school. Check it out. Thank and Be Wealthy, Intro to Healing, The Great Weekend, You're Power to Create, the list goes on. They call it many different things. I would call it Green Eggs and Ham. There is an idea that people are ticklish in the parts of their bodies to which they don't pay attention, or use very often or consider at all. The program stimulated the ticklish parts of my mind (body and spirit). I enjoyed it entirely.
