Swedish Institute has been a pillar in New York City’s education foundation for over 100 years. It holds the title as the oldest continuously operating massage therapy institution in the country, going back to when it first opened its doors in 1916. Since then, Swedish Institute has grown from a well-known school of massage therapy into a multi-purpose institution of allied health. We continue to provide a learning environment where students are supported and guided to succeed in the classroom and in their new careers.

We are committed to taking a proactive approach to the principles of diversity and inclusion through providing education that encourages civic engagement and intentionally prepares our students to be responsible members of the diverse societies that they will serve as health and wellness professionals.
