Hey there friends,
This is my site for all things massage & bodywork! I sure hope you like it, use it, and learn to love it! This is the passion project of one lone massage therapy instructor.
Here you will find handouts and important links for bodywork related subjects! All science class materials are listed under "biology classes" whereas technique classes are listed under "hands-on." There is a separate page for Ethics and Business courses. And there is even a special section for Asian Bodywork and Energy Healing.
Yes the site is rarely maintained, yes it looks like a site from the freakin' 90's... but I have worked in massage schools since the early 2000's and I can tell you, the information herein is not found elsewhere, at least, not in one place....
It is my hope that massage therapy students and teachers will use this site to enhance their classroom experience!
Thanks,

The fascia was scraped away to reveal other structures that were; one can only assume, more glamorous or in some way took precedence over the casings around those structures. [full article]
