* Kinesiology is the Science of how and where bones move when one or more muscles pull on them. … There is the simple one muscle, one bone interaction. Then there are the more complex actions of multiple interactions between more than one muscle and one or more bones. …
At the SAB, you’ll study Kinesiology so you can more precisely evaluate which specific muscles are most responsible for a Client’s or Patient’s pain or dysfunction. This provides a more efficient & effective approach to tracking down soft tissue issues many, if not most, therapists have trouble resolving. …

Passing the MBLEx, the
North Carolina Licensing Exam
An important criterion in determining the school offering you the best education is the pass rate on the Massage & Bodywork Licensing Exam (MBLEx). We maintained a 100% pass rate for 5 years. Most states require a passing grade on this test to qualify for licensure, which affords you the privilege to practice in that state. It is offered at testing centers all over the country including 3 in the Charlotte area.
Your NCSAB instructors are highly experienced practitioners and are living and breathing experts and specialists in soft tissue therapeutics.
Even if you have no background in massage therapy, our staff will take you step–by–step through the process of learning the basics. Upon graduation, you’ll understand and be competent and efficient in treating the most common soft tissue pathologies experienced by the vast majority of Clients.
NOW, for a Deep Dive into Who We Are and
What You Will Learn at the NCSAB …
Again … OUR MISSION … is to Educate & Support YOU In Becoming a Leading Edge Therapist in Medical Massage Therapy & Musculo–Fascial Therapy…
HERE’S HOW WE DO IT …
Myo–Structural Factors in Posture, Pain & Dysfunction
The NCSAB believes there is a fundamental lack of understanding relative to how postural distortions directly and negatively impact the human body. Many people are not aware that poor posture very often leads to musculoskeletal pathology, including neuromuscular, myofascial, and various myo-structural issues.
“Myo–” refers to the muscular system, including the muscle fibers, the musculo–fascia, and the nerves controlling them.
Yet in OTHER cases, but no less important, it is the opposite. … Musculoskeletal pathology and pain can affect structural & postural balance and distortions. Either way, these factors are critical to recovering and optimizing the Health & Function of the Human Body & Mind of your Clients. And while Pain is very often an indicator of such “soft tissue issues,” at other times, their Postural Distortions are far MORE important than where the pain is. Sometimes, the pain distracts you from where your Client’s problems really are. … In our Medical Massage Therapy & Myo–Structural Balancing School, we teach you how to distinguish the many, and sometimes little–known, differences in determining & treating what your Client’s TRUE source of pain or dysfunction really is. Our advanced medical massage training sets you apart from the “standard” training in most massage schools out there. Our Clinical / Medical Massage Therapy School uses Structure & Posture as a Core Focus for your Therapeutic Education, helping you develop your Strategy & Tactics for recognizing, analyzing & treating such conditions.
Structural Balancing & Postural Evaluation
Structural Balancing refers to the overall analysis of the Client’s Personal “Big Picture.” It includes various elements of their health history, what kinds of exercise or stretching they do, what accidents they’ve been in, and so on. …
Postural Evaluation is a highly specific examination of where their bones are in space, and relative to each other. This helps you understand which are the most over–shortened muscles. These are very often where a Client holds the most tension, stress, and even trauma, and are usually the very first muscle(s) to address in a proper Myo–Structural Balancing Therapy Session. …
The “Myo–” refers to the actual treatment of the muscle(s), which by traditional definition INCLUDES the Myo–FASCIA, to bring the Client’s physical structure back into proper balance.

You Too Can Become An Expert At Relieving Pain,
Lost Range of Motion, “Weakness,” and
Many Other Dysfunctions by Resolving
Postural & Structural Imbalances
Our advanced approach to myo-structural bodywork and medical massage therapy at our school in Charlotte, NC includes addressing and eliminating postural distortions caused by muscular tension and myofascial imbalances. We believe the body’s inefficient opposition to gravity can cause many forms of musculoskeletal pain. 
You will discover how the body’s inefficient opposition to gravity can cause musculoskeletal pain and many other problems people face on a daily, hourly basis.
In other words, gravity forces the body’s weight to shift off the bones and onto the muscles. This shifting, altering, and compensating often leads to the formation of local pain points, trigger points (referral of pain to distant areas), deviations (unevenness) in hip & leg lengths, distortions in the pelvis and spine (misalignments), depressed or elevated shoulder girdles, collapsed (stooped or slouched) upper body, forward neck & head positioning, and many other ailments.
Our objective is to have students focus on musculo–fascial units that are overly “locked short” from C.E.M.&.N.T. (Chronic, Excess, Muscle & Nerve Tension & Stress), specializing in resolving muscular imbalances linking poor posture, musculoskeletal pain, a wide variety of dysfunctions, and restriction of body movements. Yet sometimes, pain from other causes distorts the posture. Learning to SEE and Understand these many factors sets YOU apart from other practitioners.
AND, YOU will KNOW how to Recognize those differences, and What to DO about them.
Hands-On, Clinical / Medical
Massage Therapy
Our unique approach to Skillful Resolution of Chronic Muscle Tension & Stress (AKA “tight muscles”) and the many problems it causes is the primary skill you’ll be developing at the North Carolina School of Advanced Bodywork.
With the addition of this Clinical / Medical Massage Therapy School in Charlotte, North Carolina, the city regains the teachings of one of its early contributors to the enhancement of clinical and structural bodywork, Kyle C. Wright, LMBT
Many of our Clients* over the years have been to many forms of therapy — including various kinds of massage and bodywork such as Rolfing®, neuromuscular, myofascial, deep tissue therapy, acupressure, etc. — searching for relief from a variety of soft tissue and musculoskeletal related problems.
Yet they had not found sufficient or complete relief until they experienced our unique approach to soft–tissue therapy, brought to Charlotte (and Jacksonville, Florida, by Mr. Kyle C. Wright in 1994) and further developed over the years since.
* Client: One who is under the Protection of another.
~ Webster’s Dictionary
This skill — and the related knowledge — is what will set YOU apart from many, if not most, of the therapists out there today. We encourage our students to work at a higher standard of Professionalism and Interaction with their Clients.

Charlotte, NC The Queen City
Why A Clinical / Medical Massage Therapy &
Myo-Structural Bodywork School?
. . . Because . . .
From CDC Weekly / April 14, 2023 … During 2021, an estimated 20.9% of U.S. adults (51.6 million persons)bhb inexperienced chronic pain, and 6.9% (17.1 million cc TV persons) experienced high-impact chronic pain (i.e., chronic pain that results in substantial restriction to daily activities) Rikard SM, Strahan AE, Schmit KM, Guy GP Jr.. Chronic Pain Among Adults — United States, 2019–2021. MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep 2023;72:379–385. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15585/mmwr.mm7215a1.
From NIH News Releases / May 16, 2023 … Overall, the study found that the rate of chronic pain and high-impact chronic pain (HICP) among adults is approximately 21% and 8%, respectively. Chronic pain is pain that is experienced on most days or every day in the past three months; and HICP is pain that limits life or work activities on most days or every day during the past three months. The links between the widespread burden of chronic pain and the country’s opioid epidemic underscore the urgency to understand and address the issue of pain. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-study-finds-high-rates-persistent-chronic-pain-among-us-adults — Nahin RL, Feinberg T, Kapos FP, Terman GW. Estimated Rates of Incident and Persistent Chronic Pain Among US Adults, 2019-2020. JAMA Net 2023.
You’ll want to position yourself as someone who can help resolve such issues as the CDC and NIH described in the above Quotes from their publications. The U.S. National Institute of Health (NIH) says this …
“Based on the evidence, massage therapy, compared to no treatment,
should be strongly recommended as a pain management option.”
In Our Highly Specialized Program, You’ll Soon Be Learning To Reduce or Resolve Such Problems Such As:
- Sciatica
- Headaches
- Low Back Pain
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Stooped Posture
- Knee/Elbow Pain
- TMJ Issues

- Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
- Neck & Shoulder Pain
- And Many More Chronic Pain Issues For Which Many Have Not Yet Found Relief.

You Will Become A Specialist in Reducing …
C.E.M.&.N.T.
(Chronic, Excess Muscle & Nerve Tension & Stress)
As David Scott Lynn puts it, we have found many of the seemingly unresolvable problems people face to be the result of C.E.M.&.N.T. — or Chronic, Excess Muscle & Nerve Tension & Stress — or its less precise medical term, hypertonicity.
Or, Just “Tight Muscles.”
This is an almost unrecognized source of trouble for large numbers of people, and few healthcare professionals or therapists have mastered the techniques, strategies, and subtleties needed to recognize, manage, or resolve this widely pervasive cause of many common problems.
Because the ability to contract and relax muscles is, obviously, necessary to almost ALL our bodily functions on a daily basis, few recognize contracted muscles as a “problem.” The problem with that is that while everyone is pretty good at contracting their muscles, very few know how to truly DE–Contract, or fully Relax their muscles.
Chronically Contracted & Over–Shortened Muscles become our Primary Focus for resolving many of the clinical, soft tissue issues therapists regularly encounter in their practices.
Many muscles are excessively contracted; yet they are at the same time, paradoxically, overly lengthened. Too many therapists think the over-lengthened muscles are “Too Weak.” While this often FEELS or APPEARS correct, this is rarely the case. Allegedly “weak” muscles are not that common and lead to great misunderstandings on how to do therapy. Understanding the strategy & tactics necessary to evaluate and treat such “weak / strong” muscles versus “short / long” muscle paradoxes is central to the Medical Massage Therapy & Myo–Structural Balancing Process you’ll learn at NCSAB.
Along those lines, a well–functioning human body wanting Precise, Effective & Efficient Action must be able to RELAX or DE-Contract its muscles just as easily as they contract them. The balance between musculo-fascial contraction & relaxation must be VERY close to equally balanced.
Massage & Bodywork, along with Conscious Stretching, and other related modalities, are excellent ways to support your Clients in achieving far deeper levels of relaxation — of Muscular De–Contraction — than they’ve ever experienced.
I am a therapist and I own my own practice in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. I get to help change and improve people’s lives on a daily basis. It’s the most satisfying and rewarding way I could ever hope to make a living. Graduating from one of Kyle’s former schools made all these opportunities possible. It really did change my life.
~ Chad Jasmine, LMT, NCTMB Ponte Vedra Beach, FL
THIS Is Your Unique Opportunity At A Clinical / Medical Massage Therapy School in Charlotte, NC
Some Problems Causing, Or Closely Related To,
Chronic, Excess Muscle & Nerve Tension:
Imbalances between muscle groups- Poor posture & stooping
- Faulty movement patterns
- Pressure on and irritation of nerves
- Trigger Points & referred pain
- Myofascial pain syndromes
- Disc related problems
- Sports-related injuries
- Faulty ergonomics
- General & Specific chronic pain
- Many problems of aging
- Scoliosis and kyphosis
And that’s just a short list. … To be honest, we’re often amazed, though now rarely surprised, by how many symptoms our Clients experience caused by excess muscle tension.
So Much In So Little Time?
Now, HOW can we give you what amounts to an Advanced Education in only 650 hours when other massage therapy schools offer more hours for a more spa–style or general relaxation–based training, a less overtly therapeutic training?
All massage schools, including NCSAB, will give full training in Swedish Massage. It’s what we all do afterward that makes each school different.
The path WE chose is a more overtly clinical & medical approach to pain & dysfunction management.
We can provide the education you need to be an excellent practitioner of Therapeutic Swedish Massage, while at the same time teaching you how to achieve higher levels of therapeutic skill through our advanced training in Clinical / Medical Massage Therapy and Myo–Structural Bodywork.
Regardless of which method — Swedish versus Clinical / Medical — you choose to emphasize in your own practice, you’ll be far more competent in helping your Clients or Patients with their musculoskeletal and soft tissue issues.
How Can We Do This?
We focus on THE ESSENTIALS, without the “stuff” or “fluff” that does not matter.
With well over 35 years of clinical practice and teaching medical massage therapy, Kyle Wright and his seasoned staff (with over 50 years combined experience) have developed and continuously refined the process of teaching this material to a high art.
The training curriculum has been precisely thought out and sequenced allowing the material to be delivered in the most efficient and effective way possible. This efficiency combined with a small, high–caliber group of students, allows us to teach you far more than the basic requirements in a shorter time.
If you are already convinced the North Carolina School of Advanced Bodywork might be The Place For You, contact our school to hold your place today. Classes are small, so don’t delay.
Participate in a Kinesiology Class any Wednesday. Just show up at 9 AM for the day class or by 6 pm for an evening class.
Once we have determined we are a good fit, we may offer you our application and will walk you through the enrollment process.

My association with Kyle Wright began many years ago. He has treated me for various muscular symptoms which have helped me with my game tremendously. His knowledge of the muscular and skeletal systems of the body has given me an insight on how sports and muscle injuries interact and the subsequent treatment plan needed to alleviate the underlying cause. Kyle has a warm disposition and a keen dedication to the work he believes in. I wish him much success in the years to come.

~ Gina Canzano
Living On The Leading Edge of Advanced Bodywork & Life Itself!
As you get to know us, you’ll understand more about The Edge. It is a central key to providing great bodywork for people and managing many of the aspects of your own life and self.
Working with THE EDGE, “Deep” Tissue Therapy Does NOT, Should Not, Be Painful!
The short story is that too many people think that “deep tissue” therapy has to be painful for it to work. On the other hand, there are massage therapists who seldom or never work deep enough.
But the best results come when your Client is within their own optimal levels of sensation, on the “Edges” of pain, meaning they LIKE (or are very neutral about) what they’re feeling, and not having to tolerate the pressure you are applying to their muscles and fascia.
One of our Mottos is “It’s easier to open the door before you walk through it … and You can’t peel an onion from the inside out.”
Because we start well within the Client’s comfort levels, and have them let us know when we’re getting too deep, or too intense, they develop a deep trust that we will not hurt them, allowing them to relax even more. Each thin layer of muscle — each layer of musculo/fascia is a doorway to the next layer — is relaxed, well within the Client’s comfort zone. This allows us to sink through each layer without causing pain, stress or resistance for the Client. We want them to INVITE what we’re doing, not FIGHT what we’re doing. Since we NEVER, or seldom, intentionally cause them pain from the therapy itself, they can, and do, relax far more deeply. When they DO feel pain, they KNOW and TRUST we will back off instantly, and they become far more cooperative and interactive in their therapeutic process. In this way, we very often end up working MUCH DEEPER than the “Deep Tissue” or other more aggressive therapists. And we can stay in the deeper tissues longer, getting more done, finding more “hot spots,” more effectively and efficiently than other methods.
Working with The Edge keeps You, the therapist, and your Client, more fully focused on their internal relaxation and tension release process, rather than distracted by dealing with or resisting pain, as a result making deeper neurological connections, increasing the effectiveness, efficiency, and results of the therapy you provide for them.
They VERY soon KNOW the difference between YOU and other therapists. And YOU will learn to provide those differences at your Clinical / Medical Massage Therapy School in Charlotte, NC.
Like much of what you’ll be learning with us, there’s A LOT more to it than the above simple descriptions. Yes, our technique treats the deep tissues. Many say we go deeper than most.
Yet in many cases, the “Trick” is to let the skin and surface tissues “release” first, THEN go deeper, thin layer by thin layer (like working through the layers of an onion) of musculo–fascial tissue, allowing the No Pain, MORE Gain process to work. You’ll learn to deliver deeper bodywork with no significant levels of pain necessarily involved.
Our entry-level program at our medical massage therapy school gives you all the tools you need to be a VERY successful practitioner with these methods.

In almost twenty years of practice and who knows how many continuing education courses I have taken, there have been two styles that have defined how I practice. The work I learned from Kyle – “Playing The Edge,” neuromuscular, and structural rebalancing and so much more.

What, Exactly, Will You Be Able To Do When You’ve Graduated?
Well, it’s a wide-open field, ripe for innovation and creativity.
One huge market opening up is the Baby Boomers who have started retiring in large numbers. They are one of the most health-conscious groups of people we’ve ever seen.
Another opportunity is working with physicians who understand the value of soft tissue therapy treatments for many of their patients’ painful afflictions difficult to treat by other means. (Although many physicians will need you to give them an education on how it all works. We’ll prepare you for those interactions.)
I have referred many patients to Mr. Kyle Wright, LMT, NCTMB, for clinical neuromuscular and structural bodywork. These have been my patients with soft tissue dysfunction, generally secondary to trauma. My experience has been positive, in that the patients involved have increased range of motion of the affected areas and have a decrease in their complaints of pain.
I have found this type of therapy to be a very useful modality in the treatment of soft tissue disorders. I have found Mr. Kyle Wright to be an articulate and competent therapist.
~ Ronald W. Dennie, M.D. Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Another market is athletes and sports enthusiasts. Most of us have heard about top athletes who consider some form of massage or bodywork as vital to their professional success and injury prevention.
Kyle Wright personally worked with a number of world-class, professional athletes who’ve been extremely appreciative of the benefits our approach to therapy provided them.
But please bear in mind that if I was using techniques most therapists use, and that I used in my early days as a therapist, I most likely would not have gotten the level of results I did with many of my Clients. I firmly believe you’ll be hard pressed to find this approach in many places in America. ~Kyle Wright
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee how well you will do as a professional massage and bodywork therapist. Only You can determine how dedicated and hard-working you’ll be. It takes diligent, consistent work to get started, find Clients, and build a practice.
Yet in truth, you’re only limited by your imagination and willingness to work hard & smart, along with the quality of your training. And of course, if you go into private practice, like any other business, you’ll need to develop your marketing & networking skills, and we will help get you started on that.

Our NEXT 650-Hour Professional Class STARTS:Monday, March 3, 2025
Over many years Kyle Wright has brought Neuromuscular Therapy into my office. Through his knowledge and clinical experience, he has been an integral part in the assistance of correcting neuromuscular skeletal dysfunctions. This soft tissue work that has been used as an adjunct to spinal manipulation, works hand in hand to assist the patients through the biomechanics of reversing their conditions. …
Neuromuscular Therapy, particularly through Mr. Wright, is a great asset and brings a new dimension to my practice and the healthcare field.
~ Dr. Joseph J. Altomare, D.C. Chiropractic Physician
Passing the MBLEx, the North Carolina Licensing Exam
An important criterion in determining the school giving you the best education is the pass rate on the Massage and Bodywork Licensing Exam (MBLEx). We maintained a 100% pass rate for 5 years. Most states require a passing grade on this test to qualify for licensure, which affords you the privilege to practice in that state. It is offered at testing centers all over the country including 3 in the Charlotte area.
Your NCSAB instructors are highly experienced practitioners and are living and breathing experts and specialists in soft tissue therapeutics.
Even if you have no background in massage therapy, our staff will take you step–by–step through the process of learning the basics. Upon graduation, you’ll understand and be competent and efficient in treating the most common soft tissue pathologies experienced by the vast majority of Clients.

A NOTE from Kyle:
“I have to give due credit to one of MY most influential teachers, David Scott Lynn. He contributed three chapters on the physiology & philosophy of bodywork and other materials to the completely revised and professionally published version of my 380-page textbook, Structural Balancing: A Clinical Approach.
“Many of the concepts I teach, and you will be learning, at NCSAB, I learned from David in one of his DSL Method series of workshops for bodyworkers in the early 1990s. …
“This is among the Leading Edge material I’ll be incorporating and teaching you. It includes both Therapeutic Yoga and Hands-On, Myo-Structural Bodywork.”
~ Kyle C. Wright
Here are just three testimonials about David’s work:
Application of these Teachings will take Yoga to new heights in the Western World. The DSL Method is profoundly sensible.
Leslie Hunter Yoga Teacher Sedona, Arizona
Having had experience with many different bodyworkers, David’s [DSL Method] technique is certainly unique. There are levels of healing he achieves I’ve never seen before. This is clearly a result of a vast knowledge of anatomy and physiology combined with decades of hands–on experience.
Dr. John Bordiuk, M.D. Nutritionally Oriented M.D. & Yoga Teacher Marino Center • Wellesley, Massachusetts
I have worked with many soft tissue therapists over the years. David Scott Lynn is the only one educated and skilled enough to do what I want with full confidence that the job will be done. My patients definitely feel the difference. [Of course, Dr. Gary never met Kyle Wright!]

A Message From Kyle Wright,
Founder & Developer of:
Florida and North Carolina Schools of Advanced Bodywork: Clinical / Medical Massage & Bodywork Therapy Schools offering:
650–Hour Professional Massage & Bodywork Therapy
“It’s always nice to see when therapists quiet their minds and quiet their hands; the recipient of the bodywork goes to a deep level of the parasympathetic state, which allows for a deeper level of entry into the musculo–fascial layers of the body. When the recipient experiences no fear, resistance, guarding and armoring and no pain during their session, their muscles are more able to achieve relaxation and longer–lasting results.” ~Kyle Wright
(Screen Size Button is in Lower Right Corner of Video)
“After you get to know my work a little better, we can talk about your concerns and ambitions. We can help you decide if medical massage therapy and myo–structural bodywork is the right profession for You, and whether North Carolina SAB is the place for you to learn.”
~Kyle C. Wright, LMBT

Over the past six years, I have had the privilege of working with a number of graduates of [Kyle Wright’s schools of Clinical Massage Therapy]. I am engaged in a pain management practice and have found the technical support people who are graduates [of Kyle’s schools] to be exceptionally well trained and of immeasurable help in an integrated pain management program. They have an excellent knowledge of Anatomy and Physiology and their training in Neuromuscular Therapy is very beneficial to my patients who undergo a comprehensive therapy program following injury.
