Videos for Viewing & Download to Keep:

Each month we’ll add three to four hours of new video to the site that you can watch online anytime, just like You Tube or Netflicks.

You also have the option to download the videos to your own computer's hard drive for viewing when you're not online.

The videos include talks covering The Essentials of Clinical Practice, Specific Problems Effectively Addressed, Therapeutic Hydrotherapy and the Soft Tissue Pathologies that are the backbone of Medical Massage Therapy.

The videos also include detailed hands-on demonstrations, with great close up shots of Assessment Tests and Specific Hands-on Massage Techniques for you to learn, including how to use the "Thumbsaver" tools and the ergonomic strategies that are so valuable for
extending your career as a massage therapist.

We also show important Rehabilitation Exercises
that you can teach your clients.

Illustrated Course Manuals:

Enhancing the videos are six comprehensive Course Manuals with detailed photos and diagrams that you can study and keep handy as a quick reference.

You'll find these course manuals to be an enormously valuable asset to support your learning of physiology and soft tissue pathologies.

They come wrapped in a handsome spiral binder to hold it all and we encourage you to keep this handy in your treatment room for easy reference when working with your clients.

Interactive Private Membership Website:

Our interactive, private Facebook group includes a Community Forum where you can post questions to our instructors directly and interact with other students world-wide.

For those who are, or want to be in a clinical rehab setting, this course provides essential information to allow you to communicate effectively with physicians and insurance providers. 

Through effective documentation and knowledge of medical assessment protocols the path is opened to an increased level of physician referrals. In this course, we will review, practice and document all the Orthopedic Physical Assessments from the other five Medical Massage Therapy Courses. 

We will practice: AROM measurement of all major joints with the Goniometer and the Tri-Measure for the TMJ and all Special Tests and Postural Assessments from the basic 5 courses. 

Students will receive a Course Manual containing a printable set of forms including client history, informed consent, all MMT assessments, STT chart,SOAP chart, and sample reporting forms to be sent to Physicians and Dentists.

Your passing grade on the multiple choice test for each of the six courses makes you eligible for a 72 On-Line CE Hour Certificate of Achievement, suitable for framing.

*State CE requirements vary widely.
Please find out if your state accepts or limits On-Line Study CE Hours.

In this Comprehensive On-Line Medical Massage Masterclass you will learn:


Over 100 Physical Assessments for pain, posture, and active and passive range of motion. 

Over 50 Special Regional tests that can pinpoint specific pathologies.

We cover over 100 different pathologies that can be successfully addressed through massage therapy and a bunch more are identified that a massage therapist is likely to see but cannot really impact.

43 of which are easily approachable in the side lying position that is rarely ever taught in traditional massage school.

We cover over 30 contraindications of what not to do and when.

And finally we highlight over 175 specific musculoskeletal injuries, conditions and pains.

Through presentations, demonstrations and on-line interaction you will learn skills to enhance your massage therapy practice by applying the process of the clinical or medical model as you work with every client.
You’ll also be able to extend your massage career by adopting ergonomically correct, alternative techniques and tools that replace "thumb work" and repetitive pushing!
We’ll review relevant anatomy and you’ll learn how to apply medical terminology, documentation, assessment tests, remedial exercises and hydrotherapy for your client’s maximum benefit.
Our pathology review will detail relevant soft tissue injuries and conditions as well as their indications and contraindications for massage therapy.
We also add information on common maladies that often are relevant in musculoskeletal pain complaints that may require referral to another health professional and / or require massage therapy modification during therapeutic application.
You’ll learn how to better prepare your clients to receive your treatments through the clothes on, no oil approach and how by adding in the side-lying body position with proper pillow support, and other particular body positioning “tricks”, you can gain better access to discrete muscles to deliver the most effective treatment.
You’ll also learn how to establish and maintain communication with you client to keep your pressure “just right”.
The massage therapy techniques we present include basic Swedish techniques (with an emphasis on friction and gliding) to manage hypertonicity, trigger point therapy to eliminate referred pain, muscle energy techniques for muscle tone and spasm complaints, myofascial techniques to address fascial restrictions and osteopathic oscillation movements for relaxation of articular tension.
But most importantly, rather than providing particular recipes for particular pathologies, David and Wanita will give you the background and teach you the critical thinking process you’ll need for client centered care.
Our intention is to help you develop and deliver an effective multi-session treatment plan, based on multiple scientific assessments that, along with your holistic unique intuitive and sensitive hands-on talents, will help you integrate into a medical or clinical environment and communicate better with other health professionals.
These are the clinical skills that will set you apart as a Medical Massage Therapist, providing soft tissue manipulation that gets results where others fail, playing a vital, truly hands-on role in resolving your client’s injuries, conditions, pain and dysfunction.

DEMONSTRATIONS:

Detailed demonstrations of specific soft tissue treatment techniques make up a significant portion of the video content available exclusively through this course.

These demos are included on the Bonus DVDs we will send you, which are no longer available for sale outside of this course.

The demonstrations were shot in a studio, using multiple cameras and include detailed close-ups so you can best observe the techniques David is teaching.
It's actually more effective to learn these techniques from the video than from participating in a group class.
Here you have an unobstructed close-up view and you can rewind and repeat any part of the video so you can really absorb and learn each move.
The demos also frequently detail specific ergonomic alternatives, like using the Thumbsaver, beveled L-bar and his "less push, more pull" techniques, as well as supporting body positioning with holds or with pillows to put muscles on slack for better access and treatment.
