🌿 Transform Lives — Starting with Your Own 🌿

Massage therapy isn’t just a service — it’s a calling.

💆‍♀️ Did you know?
✔ Massage lowers stress hormones, boosts your mood, and improves sleep.
✔ The demand for licensed massage therapists is growing faster than almost any other profession.
✔ You can build a career with flexibility, independence, and the power to make people feel better every single day.

At The Wellness Academy of Dothan, we believe massage school is more than training — it’s community, connection, and a pathway to a meaningful career.

If you’ve ever thought, “I want a career where I truly help people” — this is your sign.

🧠 Just something I’ve been reflecting on lately…

I saw a video the other day of a self-driving car, and it made me pause.
Technology is moving fast—AI is showing up in so many places: customer service, content creation, even parts of healthcare and education.

It got me thinking about the kind of work that still depends on our presence.
The kind of work that can’t be automated.

Massage therapy is one of those careers.

It’s quiet, grounding, intentional.
It requires listening, intuition, and human connection—things no machine can replicate.

If you’ve ever wanted a career where your energy matters…
Where people leave feeling lighter just because you were you…
Where presence is the job…

Massage therapy might be something to explore.

We need people.
And people need connection.
That will never change.
I truly believe it’s how we were designed.

Massage doesn’t just help others — it helps you too.
Studies show massage therapists report lower stress, higher job satisfaction, and more freedom in their daily lives than many other health professions.
It’s not just a career — it’s a lifestyle of care.

✅ Learn. Heal. Thrive.

Meet Erica Powers, LMT
Massage Therapy Instructor

At The Wellness Academy of Dothan, I have the privilege of teaching what I love—massage therapy, healing, and self-empowerment. I’m Erica Powers, a Licensed Massage Therapist, skincare artisan, and lifelong student of the healing arts. With over a decade of experience in both massage and holistic skincare, I bring a hands-on, heart-led approach to everything I do.

I entered this field because I believe in the power of intentional touch—not just as a physical relief, but as a way to reconnect people to their bodies, emotions, and peace. Over the years, I’ve cultivated a thriving massage practice and launched Skin Powers, my all-natural skincare line, both born from a desire to help others feel seen, safe, and cared for in their own skin.

As an instructor, I’m here to help students tap into their own power and purpose. I believe learning massage therapy is more than memorizing strokes—it’s about building intuition, confidence, and compassion. My goal is to guide students as they grow into skilled professionals who aren’t just ready for a career—but ready to change lives, starting with their own.

Joining The Wellness Academy has been a full-circle moment for me. It’s a space where community, authenticity, and growth are front and center. I’m proud to walk alongside our students as they discover the healer within—and I’m honored to be a part of their journey.
