Possibly the most famous and widely used resource in therapeutic bodywork (required for national massage therapy certification), this beautifully written, detailed, and reader-friendly picture of how and why the body responds to touch is both scientifically reliable and inspiring. Furthering the presentation of recent research in biochemistry, cell biology, and energy medicine in the Second Edition, this new update includes advances in neurophysiology and physics, reconfiguring knowledge of mind and body, from “microgenesis” to “quantum consciousness.” A rare book that fits general reader as much as professional and student.

Customer Review: Hello 1972!!
Just warning you that this video was made in 1972!! and you can tell, the hippies make you laugh a little. Other than that, it was a great video, teaches easy massage technique that any one can learn. My husband and I watched the video together, and we both learned how to give a nice massage. I never expected to get an hour massage from my husband, but I did with this video!!

Customer Review: Complete Body Massage with all the trimmings
Well organized, lovely to look at (nudity wtihout the clumsy lewdness that infects some massage videos) and comprehensive, this is a video to share with a loved one. It’s more an experience, than a video presentation. The introductory material takes you through preparing a massage area from scratch (easy!), setting up some massage oil, relaxing your partner and providing soothing background stimulation like music and scent.

The massage itself is presented in great detail with real expertise. The people in the film are attractive and really do look like they are being massaged. You watch a real massage move over the Chest and Abdomen, Head, Arms, Hands, Front of the legs, Feet, Back of the Legs and Back. Individual strokes are shown and explained well. You really can follow along stroke by stroke, trying things as you watch. There’s also lots of information about the body and the senses. The main emphasis throughout is on pleasure. You are encouraged to try what you see on the screen. There’s also lots of information on the effects massage has on the body. [Read more →]
