The Complete Guide to Modern Massage

“A great book for beginners, but even after 20 years in this industry, I learned new things. There is so much here! From the mind-body connection and the history of massage to massage techniques from around the world, there is truly something here for everyone.”–Jeppe Tengbjerg, Owner of World Massage Championship“An effortless, straightforward, and exciting read. So much information is packed inside this book, but the simple format makes the illustrations, definitions, charts on the body, muscles, bones and simple guides clear and accessible. I highly recommend this book.”–Jane M. Loecher, LMT, BCTMB (Massage Educator)“With such a variety of massage techniques and modalities, Modern Massage takes me back to my classroom days when my sense of curiosity and wonder about the massage profession were first piqued. This book is a great refresher for any massage therapist or a wonderful way for a beginner to start. There’s something for everyone and Ryan’s passion is an added bonus.”–Crystal Ristau, LMT, BCTMB, Mayo Clinic Massage Therapist
