Training

My Training

The following are TYPES of Manual Therapy and related Modalities and Education that I have undertaken, whether formally or self taught. They are not INDIVIDUAL Techniques, as many therapists list in their profiles, as I would have to list far too many.

(I am not saying there are (massage) therapists with minimal training who do not treat well, but if you have the choice, wouldn't you rather be treated by someone with more training, knowledge, and experience?)
