Response to Maggie Fritzie's post regarding saving your hands - There's a wonderful book by Lauriann Greene, "Save Your Hands." I highly recommend it. The URL is

href="http://www.saveyourhands.com" target="_blank">http://www.saveyourhands.com. Lauriann is a member of Massage and Bodywork Professionals. You can friend her on this site. Here is information about her book: "Injury is common among manual therapists, but it can be prevented. Practitioners and students in massage, physical therapy, chiropractic and more will find proven injury prevention and ergonomics strategies in our best-selling book, Save Your Hands! 2nd Edition, and our continuing education (CE) courses. For spas and clinics, our experts provide consulting and training to reduce costly workers comp, turnover and absenteeism due to injury." Ariana Vincent, Ariana Institute

Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being. They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness, and of their soul’s resources in general, much like a person who, out of his whole bodily organism, should get into a habit of using ...and moving only his little finger. – William James

Hello from London! I have an unusual question. Could anyone recommend a good US massage magazine in which I can offer an extract of a book I wrote on deep tissue massage? My publishers are asking for advice on the US market and whilst I meet around 400 therapists a year in my work we are all based here in the UK. Any tips, ideas, contacts from you guys across the pond would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Dear colleagues,

I am happy to invite you to join my group:” Medical and Sports Massage” including FREE Medical and Sports massage lessons. Not alot of practitioners in the US are familiar with Russian Medical and Sports massage as it was proposed by a Russian physician professor of medicine Anatoly Sherback . I'm happy to offer you information about this methodology as well as some additional information about me. I hope that our friendship will be pleasant and mutual beneficial. I believe in sharing knowledge. In such a case you will be able to learn from me as well as I can learn from you . If after reading information about medical and sports massage, or viewing lessons you will have any question I'm encouraging you to make comments or initiate discussion topic . In such a case my replies will be available for many to read, as well as your replies. Looking forward for great relationship.

Best wishes.
Boris
