At the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts, we believe in walking your own path. If you’re ready to live a life of purpose, profit from your passion, and become an entrepreneur, take a look at the many choices available to you through on-campus education in Tempe, Arizona.
Our on-campus Integrative Healing Arts Practitioner Diploma provides proven wellness tools, introduces mind-body-spirit balance to your life, and prepares you to meet the needs of those you will ultimately serve.
Start with a suite of courses focused in Spiritual Coaching, Holistic Entrepreneurship & Business Development, Somatic Psychology, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Personal Development. With your newfound clarity of heart and mind, dive straight into a Coaching Focus & Specialty Focus and begin the work of building the foundation of your future business.
While SWIHA teaches all of the core competencies required of classically educated massage therapists, we also offer you the flexibility to choose what works best for you. Options include two comprehensive tracks — the therapeutic track and our Ayurvedic Bodywork track.
Choose among a variety of primary holistic wellness specialties that focus on the mind-body-soul connection in the Massage Therapy (MT) 1000 or an Associates of Occupational Science Degree in Holistic Healthcare with a concentration in MT 750.
After completing the 100-Hour Hypnotherapy Certificate of Excellence, you’re qualified to apply and enroll in our Advanced Professional Hypnotherapy Certificate.

Our comprehensive 100-hour Certificate of Excellence in Life Coaching provides the skills, tools, and training needed to help people overcome obstacles and the “stickiness” of some of life’s experiences and circumstances.
