Review for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork Certification (Lww Massage Therapy & Bodywork Series)
…multiple choice review questions and review activities that summarize each content area…a full practice exam with 170 ncetmb-style questions that prepare readers for the actual exam
Customer Review: Disappointed…..
I purchased this book a few months ago, because of the reviews on Amazon. I used this study guide, made a few hundred flash cards and aced the review exams, but on the day I actually took the National Exam I failed. I was blown away by the difference between the type of questons asked on the exam vs. how I thought it was going to be from this review book. Yes, it was helpful to a degree, but I wouldn’t bother purchasing save your money and spend it somewhere else. It is misleading.
Customer Review: Should get this when you start classes….tons of info
Not only is this book great to review for the final…(I studied exclusively from this book alone and the online review that comes w/ book and passed with high scores 1st try)…but I wish I had purchased this when I first started my Massage courses because it breaks down all of the info you need into easy to read, easy to understand and pertinent information. A great book, you will not be disappointed. Click here for more info on this massage product

Living Arts Massage Practice for Pregnancy
An obliging father-to-be performs head-to-toe (actually, toe-to-head) massage on his appreciative partner in this too-good-to-be-true instructional video. Still, it’s worth a shot at guilting your partner into one of the three massages described in detail by massage therapist Michelle Kluck as the couple demonstrates each stroke. Much of the 25-minute video is dedicated to the feet and legs, as Kluck emphasizes the therapeutic benefit on the onslaught of symptoms a pregnant woman deals with in these body parts–leg cramps, edema, varicose veins, stretch marks, and such. Time is also spent on a back and shoulder massage and one for the head and neck. Kluck outlines the special conditions of a prenatal rubdown (no lying on the back or stomach, etc.) and on- screen graphics pop up to show reflexology points and a cutaway view of the pregnant body. Kluck asserts that massage can prevent many prenatal ailments without backing up her claim, but you don’t have to tell your partner that part. –Kimberly Heinrichs
Customer Review: Fabulous Pregnancy Massage!
I loved this video. My husband found it very easy to follow and he gave me a wonderful massage on my legs & feet, back & shoulders and my head & neck. The music was very relaxing and the techniques were clear and easy to understand. I felt great and he was so happy to bring me some relief during my last few months of pregnancy. I highly recommend this video to all pregnant couples! Click here for more info on this massage product

Puritec PT-SF 365 GAC/KDF 1-year Shower Filter with Amcor Power Massage Shower Head
This unique shower filter is a one-year filter that uses a combination of KDF media with granular activated carbon (GAC) for maximum reduction of chlorine and other water contaminants. The KDF and GAC combination provide greater protection than any other shower filter. The system is designed to backwash sediments as needed. Comes complete with a power-massage shower head (not shown). Replace the entire unit each year. A shower is an unhealthy atmosphere where contaminants vaporize in shower steam in concentrated amounts. We breathe these directly into our lungs. And, it allows for your skin and to absorb up to 100 times more of these chemicals than if you drink the same water. The PuriTec SF-365 effectively removes chlorine and other contaminants from your shower water, giving you a clean, healthy and refreshing shower experience. You will notice softer, smoother skin and hair. The SF-365 will even reduce mold, bacteria, algae, and fungi in your tub or shower. Click here for more info on this massage product

Customer Review: The Bomb!
This is simply the best showerhead we have ever had. It is a snap to install and changing the settings is smooth and easy. There is a flow setting for every need. You get a wonderful shower with no “missing” spots in the water delivery.Having the ability to remove the shower head from the holder makes cleaning the shower a breeze now. It is so inexpensive too when you see what you get for the money. Highly recommend.
Customer Review: Misleading Packaging
I like the 3 main settings, but the package says “6 settings”, which lead me to believe those were 6 different settings. They are counting the in-betweens as other settings. I was pretty disappointed. I looked extensively at different models and at the description of this one, and I couldn’t find those details I was looking for. Some models didn’t even have descriptions at all.
Anyway buyer beware of packaging. Other than that main point, it’s a really nice alternative to the standard head. My kids actually like showers when they can control the stream of water. Also the settings it does have are good standards to have if there are only 3. Click here for more info on this massage product
