I Passed         

I took the NCBTMB exam after studying this program and passed effortlessly. I believe you can too, if you choose to take the time to study the material. Everyone is different as to how long it will take for you to retain the information. If you set your exam date you will have three months to take the exam I found it helpful to set the exam date this gave me a goal and encouraged me to buckle down and learn the material. 

If its been awhile sense you have attended class this program is for you. The information will also improve your massage practice. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you along the way.
