Madison’s East-West Healing Arts Institute Expands to Milwaukee Area

The new Wauwatosa campus of the East-West Healing Arts Institute (EWHAI) is accepting applications for its fall semester, which begins October 11. Located at 2949 West Mayfair Road, just four blocks north of the Mayfair Mall, the new campus resides along Wauwatosa’s Innovation Parkway, a top new economy area in Wisconsin. The institute will host an informational massage workshop from 1 to 3:30 p.m., September 13.

EWHAI is a national leader in fully integrated Asian-bodywork and therapeutic massage training. Its 800-hour Therapeutic Massage and AsianBodywork Massage Therapy program, one of the most comprehensive in the country, can be completed in as little as 10 months. The institute also offers a 320-hour Asian Bodywork Certificate for massage therapists and bodyworkers that are already licensed.

East West was founded by Dr. Xiping Zhou, a doctor of Oriental medicine, licensed massage therapist and licensed acupuncturist with more than 35 years of experience as a practitioner and teacher of traditional Chinese medical acupuncture, tai chi and qigong and a nationally known speaker on Asian bodywork and Chinese medicine.

The school welcomes private tours, and student massages are available for $35 per hour through the Student Clinic on alternating Mondays and Tuesdays.
