Hi Jon,
Okay, put your ideas on paper and bring them forward at the symposium.
I will make sure there is a vote taken by the (MTAC) Massage Therapy
Advocacy Council at the Festival and we will send the results along
with our findings to President Obama's staff for their review. We all
know it is the best thing people can do for themselves. Maybe someday
the rest of the population will agree. I believe by Summer the economy
will be back and it will be a great Festival. Great teachers and I
can't wai to meet Jean Shea. Biotone will be the Institution of the Year.
Take it easy,
Mike

Hi Jon, this is a great idea. I wish it was mandatory to get at least
one massage a month. Just like it is manadatory to vote in Australia.
It would end all war. This alone would make it worthwhile. Jon this is
such a great idea. Could you bring it up at this year's World Massage
Festival in New Braunfels, Texas at the symposium? It would make a
great topic.
Thanks,Mike

I wanted to see if I could get your quick help. I'm not sure if you've heard, but there's a movement of citizens inspired by the presidential campaign who are now submitting ideas for how they think the Obama Administration should change America. It's called "Ideas for Change in America."
I've submitted an idea and wanted to see if you could quickly vote for it. The title is: Therapeutic Massage Service Corps/Touch Care for All. You can read and vote for the idea by clicking on the following link:
The top 10 ideas are going to be presented to the Obama Administration on Inauguration Day and will be supported by a national lobbying campaign run by Change.org, MySpace, and more than a dozen leading nonprofits after the Inauguration. So each idea has a real chance at becoming policy. In brief, my idea is:
An initiative to fund skilled appropriate touch in all aspects of health care: preventative, skilled care(pre/post natal,homeless, infants,children, teens, orthopedic, psych., geriatric, diabetic, alzheimers, parkinson's) palliative, end-of-life care, survivor care. trauma, cancer, cardiac...every need addressed every burden of care level, every facility and new programs to help the aged.
Did you know that years ago nurses gave their pt's. a massage every day? first with alcohol then with lotion? ask an old nurse they'll tell you it eased the pt's suffering and they required less drugs.
That sort of therapeutic touch is absent in most care facilities today. Nurses don't have time, Medicare doesn't allow therapist's the time, insurance won't pay usually.
Where do you get the benefit of appropriate massage care? Maybe when you get into hospice, if there is a massage volunteer, or maybe not ever...help millions of suffering elderly receive regular skilled touch with well trained massage therapists. Then let's partner with schools and facilities to begin simple hand or foot massage training to help the burgeoning population of diabetic conditions in our nation. The research is there that says massage helps all conditions by reducing the seat of disease, stress. Now is the time to wrestle back quality in healthcare, not status quo Medi-crap. Down with drugs, up with touch!

Negative Pressure Cupping Massage, based on the ancient art of Baguanfa
and modern science, decreases the pressure on tissues, allowing lifting
of tissues and decreasing compression on lymph vessels, capillaries,
nerves and fascia. And it feels great. Clients feel warm and relaxed for
long after the sessions. And this technique is easily modified to
support an array of modalities – from MFR to deep tissue to lymph
drainage.
The weekend will include 8 hours of hand-on labs to practice the
technique with a variety of tools.
All massage cupping supplies are provided for use in the class and will
be available for purchase on site.

PFRIMMER DEEP MUSCLE THERAPY "Canadian
Massage" or "Deep Muscle Therapy" originally created by Thérèse
Pfrimmer in the 1940's, works on a cross-muscle-fiber principle and has
come to be known as Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy®. In the past50 years,
this therapy has changed the lives of literally thousands. It is one of
the most respected techniques in the world today. Her discovery, which
led to the reversal of her own paralysis, consists of an extremely
detailed, total-body cross-fiber treatment which causes corrective
changes in the muscle on a cellular level. Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy
works toward the correction and prevention of serious muscle conditions
such as ALS, Multiple Sclerosis, Muscular Dystrophy,Parkinson's,
Cerebral Palsy, brain injury, and stroke. It has also been effective in
alleviating muscular and joint pain, headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome,
sports injuries, trauma, occupational stress disorders, arthritis,
paralysis, back pain, whiplash, chronic fatigue syndrome, thoracic
outlet syndrome, constipation, and circulatory problems, to name a few. Course Description - LEVEL I (80 HOURS) LEVEL
I - Eighty hours of training in the basic total body corrective work
Level I; Graduate Status - "Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapist".Localized
Strokes for the Evaluation and Correction of particularly Difficult
Conditions. Learn The Basic Sequence of Pfrimmer Strokes for
Comprehensive Total-Body Correction. The Pfrimmer Level I portion
immerses the student in the total-body, basic, hands-on technique work
of Thérèse C. Pfrimmer. The student learns to comb the entire
body,muscle by muscle, seeking fascial restrictions, inflammation, and
congestion which impair the movement and function of that body
part.Serious attention is given to the student's body mechanics and to
their accurate execution of the many detailed strokes. Each student
will be observed individually during class. Additional Pfrimmer
instructors will assist for large classes when needed. The student
learns to deal kindly and supportively with each client; the student
receives support to diffuse their own fears about working with the
seriously handicapped client should they choose to pursue that
direction. Studying the complete sequence for the total body is
imperative for the therapist's comprehension of corrective body work.
It is also vital for the client's well being. Pfrimmer Level I provides
a sound foundation for all therapists embarking on a career of
corrective bodywork of any type. Successful completion of the Level I
program awards the practitioner a Level I diploma and the title
"Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapist".
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. For more info on Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy see www.pfrimmerinstitute.com.The Fall Level I Registration starts on August 1, 2008 at Austin Community College (ACC) and classes will begin on August 14th, 2008.

Subject: Healthcare protest in San Antonio on June 19
Dear HCFAT Austin Members,
Our coalition associate, HealthCare-Now (San Antonio) is trying to gain as much attendance as possible, at this protest against the practices of theinsurance industry, taking place in San Antonio, from 5:30 to 7:00 pm. If you can't drive down, please contact as many sympathetic friends (from San Antonio & Austin), to support this protest!! See flyer attachment as well as below.

Date: Thu, Jun 5, 2008 at 7:47 AM Subject: Healthcare protest in San Antonio on June 19
Health Care Activists: meet for the protest in San Antonio June 19 against the health care insurance industry! (For information, see below.)
The debate needs to be reframed: Instead of asking people the old question, "Are you willing to have a single payer National Health Insurance program, even if it means paying more taxes?" Ask: "Are you willing to have a single payer National Health Insurance program, even if it means not having private insurance companies?"
This is the question we need to ask ourselves!
-----Original Message----- From: Mark D. Camann
Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2008 10:39 PM To: Malinow, Ana; Katie Glantz Subject: Healthcare protest in San Antonio on June 19
The San Antonio Healthcare-Now Coalition is joining activists from coast to coast in a day of protest against the unconscionable practices of for-profit health insurance companies. June 19 is the day when 38,000 insurance executives and their political benefactors will hold their annual conference in San Francisco. It is coincidentally the celebration of emancipation from slavery. Protests will be staged in a dozen cities across the country demanding emancipation from the profit-driven insurance companies. We invite everyone concerned to join us in San Antonio in our effort to send a clear message to the healthcare insurance industry: we are mad and won't take it any more! We will meet outside the Humana Building, 8431 Fredericksburg Road, from 5:30 to 7:00 pm.
It is likely that Reggie Cervantes will take part in the San Antonio protest. She was a 9/11 rescue worker who went to Cuba with Michael Moore and was featured in SiCKO. Ray McMurrey, a single-payer advocate who recently ran for the U.S. Senate, will also attend.

My many thanks to Krista for taking over the lion's share of moderating
this group. I have converted us to a "members only" group and will be
approving memberships from now on; that will eradicate the spam Krista
has been cleaning up as of late.
This has been a very quiet group, though there are over 70 members. I
suspect it is because so many of us are on other discussion groups that
are more active. I hope you will all join Krista's group and make it a
lively one!
Best to everyone,
Stacey Lemire
