TESTIMONIALS

I am so grateful I came here.  I take for granted what I learned here.  Other therapists have not idea about the things I learned here: energy, neuro, muscular.  I get so many complements from the clients. Steve Reynolds.

I PASSED my National Exam!  I am so glad that my education at Synergy covered so many different areas of study.  When I talked to Angie she said she had mostly muscle based questions. Then Mandy  and Katrina said they had mostly body systems type of questions.  Well, I am here to tell you that I had everything on my exam! It covered everything from the muscles, to body systems. to gait patterns etc.....It was a exam to see exactly how broad my knowledge was!  THANK YOU so much for my education! My year at Synergy along with your study guide prepared me for my exam!  Liz Larson.
 

Thank you for the work that you are teaching.  Healing in all it's aspects:  physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual, is what wholeness and life are about.  Terry Gore.

With one concentrated massage he was able to relieve the muscle tension causing the problem and my arm has been pain-free since.  I congratulate you on the quality of the education your school is providing and the quality of your students.  Bonnie Weaver.
 

I recently attended the AMTA meeting on November 8th and want to thank you for such a great presentation.  Sometimes it is the smallest things that really stick in our minds.  Last night I had a client that had a really stuck area and I used the finger rolls and voila – it completely assisted a change!  I also really like the hooks from feet and sits bones – previously I have imagined roots from my feet attaching to roots in the earth – I like the variation.  Watching you flow in your body work was really beautiful and I can only hope that I continue to grow to that level of energetic harmony with my body work.  Beth Rankin.

I am finding there is a shortage of good massage therapists, and what I learned at Synergy is very advanced.  Thank you!.   Liz Larson

We had a wonderful time in the class...the class I was dreading to take.  You made it fun and informational...and that is saying something with the subjects.  Chuck Armstrong.

I graduated from the 624 hour program at Synergy and many doctors want me to work in their offices.      Katrina Martindale
