The Student Clinic is a crucial component of the 500-hour massage therapy program at Bodhi Panya Institute (BPI). It offers students hands-on experience in a real-world setting, helping them prepare to become professional massage therapists. During the clinic, students perform a range of massage assignments under the close supervision of clinic instructors.
Important Note: The student clinic is intended for educational purposes, and all massage sessions are conducted in a communal, open-room environment. There are no private rooms, allowing instructors and fellow students to observe and provide evaluations.
We greatly appreciate your participation in the clinic, as your feedback is essential to the growth and development of our students. Your detailed input helps enhance their skills and prepares them for professional practice. We look forward to your valuable insights!
