The "Tool Box" is the origin of this website. I have put together a therapy protocol that has helped thousands of clients and now want to share what we have learned. This is HOW we do what we do. I've studied a variety of body work techniques of the years and combined that learning with feedback from clients and my personal experience of getting a massage on a regular basis since 1986.
So, what IS the Tool Box? It's a list of massage "moves", "techniques" and "protocols" that clients have enjoyed over the years.
As we got client feedback, or learned new massage techniques over the years, or identified important body parts and muscles, we created this list.
When you are trying to achieve a goal, if the tool you are using doesn't get the job done, you get another tool from your Tool Box! (OK, I admit it, I like to have some fun, too! - Learning should be fun and educational!)
As a subscriber or if you are taking one of our on-line courses, you'll have access to written descriptions of these techniques, AND video demonstrations.
Our goal is for you to say, "I can do that, too!"
Why have a system?
1) Many clients tell us they have never experienced therapy like ours. The reason our therapy is "unique" is because of our system. It starts with client information intake, which helps us identify the problem, so we can create a solution using therapy techniques that clients enjoy. Our system will teach you a step by step method that can grow your business and add to your professional fulfillment.
Another reason to teach this system, is the fact that these techniques are not well known!
We want to teach more and more therapists, so that consumers will learn to search for a therapist who knows Neuromuscular Techniques.
2) I want to leave something of value behind. I feel like I've been blessed to learn and expand upon these body work techniques. Also, several clients call me a "rain maker". I want to teach you how to be a rain maker, so you can get too much business. When you multiply a system with hard work and effective marketing, good things happen!
What else is important?
- While Science (Anatomy and Physiology) are crucial to your success, so is Creativity and Artistry. We will teach you how to blend both Science and Artistry to increase your success.
- AND, "Everybody's different!" Success in body work is not "One size fits all." Which means: We need lots of tools to help all those different kinds of clients.
When you have more tools at your disposal, you'll have an easier time solving problems. Your own mission becomes easier. Jim Rohn says: "Success is simple, but it's not easy."
But - what if we can make your success a little easier?
As you study and internalize these body work concepts, your problem solving skills will improve. Everybody will win. So let's get learning!
Remember, I've already gone through the learning curve, so you don't have to! We all learn from our successes, but we can learn more from our failures. It took me several years to learn these lessons; I want to speed up your success!
