Blue Cliff College

Overview of Blue Cliff College

Blue Cliff College was established in 1987 in New Orleans to provide training in the field of massage therapy. Additional campuses have since been established and acquired so that there are now seven locations: Five carrying the Blue Cliff College name plus two others - Massage Therapy College of Baton Rouge and White River School of Massage in Fayetteville, AR. In additional to its physical expansion, the school has leveraged its reputation in massage therapy to provide additional career training programs.

Massage Therapy College of Baton Rouge is accredited by the Commission On Massage Therapy Accreditation (COMTA). All other locations have received accreditation from ACCSCT (Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology).
