    I bumped into the owner of HLI , Jan , at a Health Fair and was so surprised to know this school existed in Oakdale.

It's a positive, supportive and beneficial program. All the mentors and staff are super helpful and care about each and every one of their students. NHI is like a second home to me. The Modesto Campus has gathered individuals that come from different walks of life, searching for a new career path and placed us under one roof. We all may be different but we're all similar on a certain level. The one thing we have all in common is that we are healers that want to help others. I just love how diverse our staff is and how they came from different areas of the massage therapy world. Getting into this field can open so many opportunities as students and future massage therapists. You're able to attend on line seminars and classes to help advance your education. NHI will help you get to your goals and reach for the stars. Emily C. is an amazing campus manager and has so much background with the massage therapy world. She's still is continuing her education to become a doctor. She's your go to person if you have any questions about the field. I love how she's so transparent about everything! :) Kristine B. is an awesome mentor. She's not only a Massage Therapist but as well as a Licensed Cosmetologist. I love how she has reiki and spa background. She has so much knowledge under her belt. Kristine definitely wants what's best for her students and always willing to work with you to succeed. She's our mama bear! :) Moe M. is an awesome evening mentor and has taught us some ooey gooey deep tissue massage techniques. I love her big personality as well as her bold hair. I love how Moe has so much knowledge and is hands on with teaching. I love how she tells it like it is! :) Julisa S. has such a bubbly and positive personality. She's a joy to be around and makes it an exciting journey to join NHI. She's extremely helpful with the admission process. You can ask her anything and she'll be there to help! :) Leanne C. is extremely helpful as well with the financial aid portion. Anything you need help with financially, she's your gal! :) Special Shoutout to all the mentors that visited and contributed to our education when we first started off as Juniors to Gonzalo L., Frankie M., Breanna C., Jessica M., and Gabriel B. Thank you to all that's contributed or is currently helping us with our journey. NHI is definitely a prestige school! :)

For this I need to thank the owner/instructor Michael Eakin for his dedication to teaching. I know other massage therapist who do not feel that the education they received from other schools is as good as the education that I am receiving here at Body Tune Up School of Massage.

    Michael Eakin's techniques are awesome! I studied with him and have been a massage therapist for 5…read moreyears, first in CA, then the last 2 years in NYC. At first I thought it was because I was in a small town, but now that I compete with the big boys in the Big Apple, I can see that my results far surpass what the majority of other therapists can accomplish. I have become the local fixit guy for people with chronic pain and disabilities. Oftentimes I surprise myself with the degree of improvement clients experience. Most telling is my mother's condition. For 16 years she suffered increasingly bad sciatic pains associated with scoliosis, until she could barely walk a few steps without being wracked by sharp pains. MDs, PTs, MTs, and acupuncturists had all given up on her. After moving back to NY I worked on her using what Michael taught me. Within 2 months Mom was walking for over an hour at a time. She has plateaued, but her level of functioning is way beyond what she put up with for 16 years. Michael, thank you for being so generous in sharing your knowledge. You are the best!

Her name calling, character attacks, and return to my review even 10 days ago have proven that indeed I made the correct assessment. I understand things happen, and as I stated in my reply that I felt bad she was sick. I had no way of knowing that, because she never responded or created a message. I actually would have changed my review had she reached out and explained. But that was not her choice response. She called me names, she implied I was a person who had no empathy or compassion. She continues to return to my original post and makes or other one-touch comments. A person like this isn't somebody I would ever want in my personal space, let alone touching me. Just so you know... I don't care how many 5 stars she has from people, you don't attack people. I would suggest people don't make a bad review because they'll hear about it!

    I recently completed the day Esthetician program and wanted to write a review! I really had a lot…read moremore fun than I thought I would doing this program. It's built into two phases with the first being a couple weeks long of learning material and some light hands on training before you can start working with clients. They teach facials, waxing, and anything to beautify the skin (dermaplaning/extractions/chemical peels/eyelash extensions/body wraps/etc.) You are given a full dermologica kit of goodies and pro products for your use only because on campus they have an entire dermologica back bar of which you get your product from for use with any clients you might get. Class is 3x weekly with 2 being in person and the 3rd being remote and those days will focus of theory and coursework. Overall my experience was excellent, they don't "punish" you for being absent and you have more time than your actual grad date to finish if you need to miss class for whatever reason. They also have a great leave of absence policy that made me feel a lot more ready to start the program while also working full time with two young children. I loved loved loved the teachers. Adored them. Ms Julie, ms kelle and ms Kristen are fountains of knowledge and I think the networking from them and fellow classmates already with experience in the industry is an invaluable resource. I'm really glad I chose Milan and I feel very prepared to take my licensing exam and am very excited to start working

The atmosphere Thomas creates makes it the most natural thing in the world to remember your power and your compassion, as the core of who you are. And you also learn about massage haha. At an extremely sophisticated level. I was a body worker for many years and most people I worked with said it was the best massage they ever had in their entire life. The review saying he's a liar and thief is funny to me, because in my class 4 of us who showed up came with nothing even remotely close to the full tuition. We were all very young and just decided to go I guess. He didn't bat an eye, said if we showed up then he was supposed to teach us, and gave us nothing less than his complete dedicated focus and care. That says a lot about a man.

He was generous to a fault not charging those in need out of compassion and not "grooming" women or was he a thief as those two bitter losers who posted those evil comments said. Mi casa su casa was always the case with this teacher and his generosity was for all of us students not just the women. I saw him give cars to people, $450.00 Earthlite tables, stools, curriculum books,money if you were hungry and yes some were taught for free. It so so pathetic to see people have to write such horrible things on YELP to hurt him for their own evil reasons.
