We
Teach Your Hands To Do Your Heart’s Work™
This program teaches the basic skills for the Natural
Healing Institute of Naturopathy, Inc. (NHI) "Healing
Touch Massage"™ as developed by Steve Schechter,
N.P., H.H.P. The NHI "Healing Touch Massage"™ is
a further development and refinement of the "Vitality
Massage"™. Both styles were exclusively
developed and taught by Steve Schechter to more than
4,000 licensed massage therapists practicing across
the country. Our "Healing Touch Massage"™ is
soothing, rejuvenating, relaxing and healing to the
nerves, muscles and the circulatory system. It integrates
techniques from Swedish massage that improve circulation
with the more nurturing style of Esalen massage plus
many of Dr. Schechter’s further stroke developments
and refinements. Dr. Schechter has been practicing
since 1966 and a nationally recognized, licensed instructor
since 1969 - longer
than any other school director in the country.
The program includes seventy-six hours of massage
demonstration and practice, with emphasis on integrating
the strokes into a flowing one hour or more massage.
You will learn how to use your body for proper leverage
and body mechanics in order to provide a healing massage
without strain while rejuvenating both you and the
client. In addition, the course covers basic anatomy,
physiology and kinesiology as relevant to massage.
You will learn the basics for establishing a massage
practice, how to apply for a massage technician's license,
body-mind and body psychology principles, hygiene,
ethics and much more.
Our massage technician program teaches you our widely
acclaimed "Healing Touch Massage"™ techniques,
maximum sensitivity, and generation of your energy
through properly aligned body motion, posture and breath
control.
