Touch is communication. We believe that to know the body, you must first know the self. To know the self, you must know the body. At Professional Massage Training Center, we teach from a point of view which recognizes the importance of the functional, structural, kinesthetic, and energetic aspects of the body. This view is based on the paradigm that the body is shaped by our experience. We can better connect with our clients if we know the physical body and understand other human components as well. Only with this understanding are we able to apply a truly skilled touch. This is the basis for holistic care that applies the science of the body, comprehends the influence of the mind and acknowledges the presence of the spirit.
All PMTC instructors are trained in instructional methods and teaching skills so they are able to teach in a manner that permits the educational objectives of their course to be achieved. All faculty demonstrate a command of theory and practice, contemporary knowledge, continuing study in their field, and a minimum of three years of related practical work experience. PMTC students receive their neuromuscular training from the creator of Precision Neuromuscular Therapy, Doug Nelson, and his team of instructors.
