Comment by Gary W Addis, LMT on August 13, 2012 at 5:42pm: Hey, everybody (all four of us :) )

I took and passed MBLEX today, passing was 630, I scored 761-- 85%.

This test concentrated on assessment issues. Only 5 or 6 energy questions, lots of A&P, some kineseology; the hardest questions were about pathology.

Comment by Gary W Addis, LMT on January 13, 2011 at 3:45pm: Good afternoon, Teron. Too bad that we don't have contact info for Amy...we could help her catch up. I hope she isn't dropped for the two absences (medical issue, I think).

My email is garywaddis and its on gmail. Write me any time at the address when you can't reach me here. Apparently, cableone is having trouble receiving massageprofessionals for some reason--I'm on wireless right now..

Comment by Teron Benjamin on January 12, 2011 at 10:39am: Thanks for the invitation and I will see if I can assist in gettin the others to join Gary.

Comment by Jennifer Adams on January 12, 2011 at 8:01am: studystack.com is an excellent way of sharing notes, and studying as a group before tests. You can key in your notes and study them like flash cards, or it makes quizzes and word puzzles out of your vocab to test you as well. :P

Comment by Gary W Addis, LMT on January 11, 2011 at 8:46pm: Welcome, Teron, fellow Virginia College student. If we get everybody to sign up, we could pass class notes around before tests to those who might not have them. For instance, Amy. I hope she shows up tomorrow.

See you in class.

Comment by Gary W Addis, LMT on January 7, 2011 at 1:42pm: Jennifer, this is the message on the site you gave:

"This domain is for sale! Buy domain at NoktaDomains.com"

Oops! My bad, just noticed the typo 3rd "s" in your posting (I copied and pasted).

Just visited the correct site. It is very nice, very professional. Did you build it yourself? Am impressed with your reiki training. I've never experienced reiki, but admit to resistance to the energy modalities (borne of my ignorance, no doubt.)

I have more than a year left in my schooling. Proud to report a 4.0 GPA to date, although I realize that grades ain't nothing if the hands lack the touch. A long process but think I'll get there.

Email me direct if you like.

Comment by Jennifer Adams on January 7, 2011 at 1:00pm: Site looks good. :D My one concern is the amount of text on your front page. I am told that when someone is looking for something they don't want to read through a novel to get it. But hey, I am just a student as well.

Check out my page and let me know what you think. bellasundries.masssagetherapy.com

I am going in with someone who is already established, but she is out on maternity leave right now. She will get back in the swing of things in February and I am hoping to get certified in March. Not sure how long that process takes tho. My last day of class is 3/18, but I hear that they only issue certifications once a quarter so I don't know HOW that is going to affect me.

Comment by Gary W Addis, LMT on January 5, 2011 at 5:02pm: Welcome, Jennifer. I'm a student at Virginia College, Biloxi. Recently became a student member of ABMP. I've talked to a Mobile MT clinic regarding employment after graduation and certification. And family and I visit Mobile often.

I won't be graduating for another year. Sigh. But am enjoying the classes. There is so much to learn, isn't there.

My new website is http://garyaddis.massagetherapy.com

Love to have you review it.

= Gary

Comment by Jennifer Adams on January 5, 2011 at 4:36pm: Not quite in Biloxi, but I am in Mobile and I have friends and family stretching from Moss Point to Pass Christian and everywhere in between. :D

Currently a student at Fortis in Mobile. Last day of classes is March 18th! Can't wait!
