Myofascial Release ~ This 20 hour workshop details anatomy, physiology and kinesiology as it relates to the
myofascial system of the body. Physiological processes that occur as myofascial techniques are applied are explained
in detail. The long-lasting postural and functional changes that occur during this work are explored along with the
sometimes profound personal changes that clients experience as myofascial restrictions are released throughout their
structure. Myofascial Release techniques will be demonstrated and then practiced by participants in a well-supervised,
supportive atmosphere. This workshop is taught by Chuck Carpenter, Certified Advanced Rolfer® and Co-Director of our
school.
Tuesdays, Summer, 2007 date To Be Announced 6 pm - 10 pm Cost: $350

Elder and Hospice Care ~ This 20 hour workshop deals with an extremely rewarding group of clients: the elderly and
those facing the end of life. As America's population ages, the needs of the elderly are often unmet by the medical
community. Such frequent complaints as joint stiffness, constipation, and difficulty sleeping are considered normal
effects of aging. These and other discomforts of growing older are often easily alleviated by massage. The amount of
touch this population receives is hugely inadequate, and the touch that is received is often task-based, rather than
given with a caring intention. Those who are experiencing the final stages of life, and their loved ones, benefit greatly
from gentle massage and energy techniques that can alleviate suffering and ease the individual's passage from this
world. Indications and contraindications for massage are detailed along with techniques for each part of the body that
can be adapted to a nursing home, hospital or hospice setting. Tips for working safely in these alternative settings
are also explored. This workshop is taught by Virginia Tingley, RN, CMT, and Co-Director of our school, who has
extensive experience with and enthusiasm for working with the elderly and those ending their journey in this lifetime.

Under the Stone ~ This 8-hour workshop explores the novel use of various stones developed by Henry Roth, DC. His
use of the stones as an extension of his gifted hands is a pleasure to watch. Using a variety of types of stones each
with unique healing potential is a refreshing alternative to everyday hot stone massage. The therapist will learn to
incorporate different stones into a full body massage, and to address common musculoskeletal complaints. This
method induces profound relaxation and is also surprisingly effective in addressing trigger points and myofascial
restrictions. Many types of stones will be available for purchase at affordable prices. Taught by Henry Roth, DC,
NCBTMB, a long-time and well-loved member of the NJ massage therapy community, who has achieved an
impressive array of education and training. A great way to prepare for the holiday season! NCBTMB approved!
