Course Reviews

T. Beyjo Gunnell, LMT

This course was extremely informative, not only for understanding possible medical issues with clients but for personal reasons as well, having known so many people affected by many of these diagnoses.

Pamela S. Clark, LMT, BCTMB

The age old question: What do you know about what you don't know? This is material I will re-read and keep close at hand, and share with my clients. There is just so much to understand and know from the physiological side---it over taxes the mind with just how fascinating the body is and how marvelous it all works together to create homeostasis. So glad I stumbled on this course.

Maryjane Michaud O'Connor, LMT

I found this course to be extremely helpful. It's easy to get complacent after comfortably working with many clients for 27 years without incident. As I age, so do many of my regular clients. I would highly recommend this course to colleagues as an invaluable refresher.

P. Benson, LMP, AMTA

Extremely relevant information and topics. A delight to find such informative information on such advanced subjects.

E. Allen, LMT

I always study with a marker in hand and highlight all useful information. My whole course is now a glowing yellow! Your course is excellent!
