How are Raynor Massage courses different?

Our massage courses were developed with the learner in mind by a therapist who has been practicing in the field for many years. They are hands-on and individualized courses, designed to get you massaging from day one without spending time on theory that you never use. In our massage courses you will learn to develop your sense of touch so as to detect muscle tension and blocked energy in its many forms, layers and channels in the individual patient’s body. You will learn to trace problems to their source rather than just treating them locally. For more information please see the articles What is Raynor massage, and What is Chi.

We train the therapist to work with the whole body and to work to restore it to wellness, you can read more of this in the article What is Health. A client may be getting headaches but the real problem with that person may be tightness in their hands which travels up the arms into the neck and into the head causing headaches. We will teach you to get to the source of this muscle tension and relieve it. This heightened sense of touch, and knowledge of how the body functions in a holistic manner, as well as the knowledge of a variety of techniques from the worlds' most renowned massage styles, will give you the ability to break up and release this muscle tension from its roots.

A massage that can actually release the tension and frees the body's subtle energies on this deepest level works wonders with emotional and physical ailments, as many emotional problems actually have physical interaction. Our cutting edge approach to therapeutic massage is one of the best remedies to treat anxiety, depression, deep seated emotional disturbances, stress and can assist in healing back pain, various injuries, repetitive strain injury, pinched nerves, sciatica, muscular spasms, aches, pain, stiffness, migraines, arthritis, scoliosis, and some forms of immobility.

Student Testimonial

Hey Brandon,

First of all, I'd like to thank you for the wonderful course you created and the incredible technique you developed. I apologize for not giving you some feedback sooner.

The two weeks of taking the course were two of the most life-changing weeks of my life. Terry was an excellent teacher and mentor. We were lucky, having a small class and getting more attention. I found that Terry was extremely patient and allowed me to come to my own realizations, while repeatedly hitting important points. It was also good to have his partner Stephanie there, because she was familiar with the technique and able to help out.

Receiving the treatment was amazing. I felt a lot of electricity and had an extremely intense release. It opened me up in a way I've never experienced before. As I got into working on others I felt more of a connection to the energy. Some of the experiences I had, I can only describe as supernatural. I never knew such things were possible.

Its hard to put my experience into words.

I'm back full-time at University, working part-time. As I re-acclimatize myself to the academic world, I know that I can stay rooted through massage and tuning into my body. I'm pumped to start up my practice. For now, I'm content to give massages, it keeps me grounded and feels good to be of service and spread healing.

It's wonderful what you've brought into the world and I express my humblest gratitude.

Thank you,

Our teacher was a very good instructor. He puts his heart into his teachings and was very professional. He always went to lengths to make sure that he was understood and that he understood you. It's almost unbelievable that you can learn such a great technique in 2 weeks!

I learnt techniques that will not only benefit me as a massage practitioner but also as a physical therapist I have felt pain in my hip and entire right side since Feb 2005 and the pain is gone. My mind is also clear which has not been for years. Great instructor! I will be back for the Diploma!

I would recommend this massage course to everyone and anyone seeking knowledge of the healing power of touch from teachers to Doctors. I truly could not envision a more perfect way to learn such basic essential knowledge that we should all know as a human community. You are all the best hands down. This course will change my life
