What participants are saying about our CMT Seminars:
"This course was well thought out, well structured, with plenty of useful techniques and enough time to understand their purpose, the application and the assessment of the result. Personally, I have already used all of the techniques and found them very effective. I don’t think I have taken away as much usable techniques before and felt fully confident of them..."
"The course added a vital layer of understanding to bodywork over sports and orthopaedic massage which focuses more on myofascial. Already two weeks after taking the course I am getting improved results with my clients."
~Alana.
