The benefits of massage  therapy are varied & far-reaching. As an accepted
part of many physical rehabilitation programs, massage therapy has also
proven beneficial for many chronic conditions, including low back pain,
arthritis, bursitis, fatigue, high blood pressure, diabetes, immunity
suppression, infertility, smoking cessation, depression, and more. And, as
many millions will attest, massage also helps relieve the stress and tension
of everyday living that can lead to disease and illness.

Forwarding this information because many therapists like to have client
education techniques and this class sounds really good.  There are no CEs for
Massage Therapists available for this class at this time that I am aware of. 
Maybe a CE instructor out there will take this class and add it to their
offerings?  Personally I'd be more likely to take the class if I got CE credit.

PFRIMMER DEEP MUSCLE THERAPY® 

Level 1 Classes 2009 - 2010

If you have clients that need more help than you can offer with your current skills, Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy® is a technique that will equip you. Pfrimmer Therapy® is a comprehensive corrective bodywork system that hones the therapist's palpation skills, and enables them to address every muscle in a sequence that utilizes the lymphatic and circulatory systems to make corrections on a cellular level.  It consists of an extremely effective systematic approach to the whole body using a specific series of cross fiber strokes.  Pfrimmer is a type of myofascial release, which should be the foundation for all corrective bodywork.  A trained Pfrimmer therapist has the acquired skills and knowledge to address any given pathology.  The study of Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy® guarantees a successful practice for a massage and bodywork professional that recognizes the benefit of providing pain relief for their clients.  For more info on Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy see www.pfrimmerinstitute.com.

The Fall Level I Registration starts now at Austin Community College (ACC) and classes will begin on August 20, 2009.   Class size is limited and classes must be taken in sequence.  Traveling from the other end of the State? Let us know...we may be able to help you find accommodations.   Call Janine with questions!

Each 20-Hour Weekend course is only $525.00 per session in Texas (plus $13.00 ACC insurance fee).  Texas needs massage therapists that are trained in medical massage!  There are NO Pfrimmer Therapists in the  South Texas, Dallas or Houston areas and we receive calls for referrals all the time.

Dear TX Massage Therapists, Massage Establishment Owners, and friends of Massage Therapy:

This is a call to action.  If you would not like to see the language in the law of the state of Texas stating that "Massage Parlors are Massage Establishments", then you need to act now by contacting your Senator and the Senators on the Criminal Justice Committee. (See list at the end of email...please note that some of these senators have multiple district offices that need to hear from their constituents...if you are in one of these districts, I suggest that you contact your sphere of influence to have them participate in this also.) If you go to the individual Senator's website you will be able to send an email: http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/Committees/MembershipCmte.aspx?LegSess=81R&CmteCode=C590

Attached is a list of the Senators in the Criminal justice Committee who will be having a hearing on SB1980.  This is a link to the bill text: http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/BillLookup/Text.aspx?LegSess=81R&Bill=SB1980 It always helps if you have read the bill and can articulate your point of view!  This one is easy to read!  The massage therapy profession has been battling the association with sexually oriented businesses since the beginning of time, and this language is an affront to professionals in the world.  There are plenty of laws in place to prosecute "prostitution" without engaging our Occupations Code.  It is already illegal to use the word "massage" without state licensure. 

The identical bill, HB3094 has passed the County Affairs Committee in the House and has been sent to the Senate for approval. 

This is the lasted posting on the Texas Legislation On Line website:

Sen. John Carona

District: 16 Capitol Office: CAP 4E.2

Capitol Phone: (512) 463-0116

Thank you for participating in the Legislative process!

I am excited to be participating in teaching this class with Mike.  If you
enjoy helping your clients get out of pain, these are the best techniques in
the world!  This class will also make you re-think the benefits of having a
protocol.  These techniques are easy, fairly painless and highly effective.
Sign up by next week for the amazing price of $59

Reflex Therapies are therapies in which specialized massage techniques are

massage techniques have a healing effect upon the entire body. Nerve endings
embedded in the hands and feet connect all areas of the body through nerve

relaxation, stimulate vital organs and encourages the natural healing
processes of the body. In the class we will explore some of the most common
