Meet the Director of Education
Welcome to The Wellness Academy of Dothan, where passion meets purpose. My name is Sandy Brooks, and I’m the founder and lead instructor of this school. I’ve been a licensed massage therapist since 2006 and a business owner in the wellness industry since 2008. Over the years, I’ve honed my craft, built thriving day spas, and had the privilege of helping countless clients find relief, relaxation, and healing. But my journey didn’t stop there—I felt a deeper calling to share my experience and knowledge with others who dream of making a difference in this field.
As a breast cancer survivor, single mother, and dedicated professional, I know firsthand the power of resilience and the importance of finding work that feels fulfilling. Starting The Wellness Academy of Dothan is my way of giving back to an industry that has not only supported me but has allowed me to grow and thrive. I created this school to help others unlock their potential, offering them the tools, education, and mentorship they need to succeed in the rewarding field of massage therapy.
At The Wellness Academy, we aim to set a new standard for massage therapy education in the Southeast. Our program is designed to meet the unique needs of our students, offering flexible schedules, affordable tuition, and a supportive learning environment. My goal is to ensure every student who walks through our doors feels empowered, inspired, and equipped to embark on a meaningful career.
I believe in teaching more than just massage techniques; I want to instill confidence, professionalism, and the mindset of a healer. Through this school, I’m dedicated to fostering a community where students are not just learning—they’re growing into the best versions of themselves, ready to impact the lives of others through their work.
When you choose The Wellness Academy of Dothan, you’re not just choosing a school—you’re joining a family that believes in you, supports you, and celebrates your success. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey. Together, we’re shaping the future of massage therapy, one incredible therapist at a time.
