Program Director and Instructor
Brittania Henry LMT NM#9876 and TX#MT145714 is a licensed massage therapist in both New Mexico (MT9678) and Texas (MT145714), bringing nearly four years of hands-on experience to the classroom. She specializes in orthopedic massage, lymphatic work, kinesiology taping, and prenatal care. Over the course of her career, she has worked alongside numerous doctors and gained professional experience in both clinical and spa environments.
With two years of teaching experience, Brittania will be guiding students through the entire massage therapy program. Her teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that massage helps people return to themselves. She is passionate about sharing the knowledge and skills that allow others to bring healing—whether in a medical setting or by simply offering someone the quiet, restorative space they need in a spa.
Outside of teaching and practicing bodywork, Brittania is a dedicated mother who loves reading, helping others, and volunteering with nonprofit organizations. Her compassion, expertise, and commitment to service shine through in everything she does—both in and out of the classroom.
