It's new... it's fresh...it's original!
Better yet, this therapeutic modality saves the Massage Therapists' body as your client receives a massage session they'll never forget!
It didn't happen overnight...it took several years to develop this style in a manner that would make sense to both your client's body and the therapist. The goal of Thermal Therapy is to create a style of massage that supports the body as tissues gently respond to change ... without pain!
Using heated Flax Pillows (we only endorse Mother Earth Pillows due to their excellent quality and durability), you will learn how to use measured compressions and therapeutic stretches to affect all the layers of connective tissues ...down to the depth of periosteum where the deepest pain may reside.
I am honored to teach this modality to therapists who are looking for techniques to provide skillful therapy for clients who live with conditions ranging from chronic pain, high levels of stress or in need of rehabilitation. The benefits will reach far beyond the massage session. You will learn novel Self-Care techniques so therapy can continue after the session. You will learn methods to help clients prolong and accelerate their healing, rehabilitation. and improve quality of life.
As you learn the dance of Pillossage™, you will find easier ways to offer deep therapy without strain.
We are looking forward to seeing you in one of our classes!

Visit our YouTube Page full of video clips from previous Training Classes and many Demonstrations. New clips are added as time allows.
Techniques range from creating the relaxation response, then slowly working gently through the layers of soft tissue to reach the periosteum.
Clients often want 'deep-tissue-massage' but the natural guarding will cause increased pain or reduce opportunities for reaching the causative factors of pain. Using Thermal Therapy, the therapist can access deep tissues that otherwise are too painful to affect.
By adding stretching, movement, Assisted Gravitational Stretching and focused compression, the client will benefit from increased range of motion and decreased pain and leave your table simply amazed!
