The Grampian School of Massage was founded in 1992 by Maggie Brooks-Carter (DO RGN SMTO) and Nick Carter (DO MBRA FSMTO) to be a centre of excellence in the training of all levels of Massage Therapy – a science that has been used throughout time.
Massage is now a growth industry thanks to its success in treating many common disorders as well as playing an important part in health maintenance.
Despite there being very little publicity for Complementary Therapies in 1992, there was lots of interest in the first course - and it started in the teaching facilities at the Royal Infirmary at Foresterhill, Aberdeen. In 1994, Grampian School of Massage moved to Aberdeen University.
