Hello and welcome!
You are receiving this newsletter because you have taken a class with me, or because you signed up to receive email about my classes.
I trust everyone had a warm and merry holiday season. As you start to look towards the year ahead, I want to make you a special offer! Sign up for any class in 2014 during the month of January and receive 10% off the class tuition. Setting prices has always been a challenge (as you probably know from your massage and bodywork practice!), and this year after much consideration I have raised my tuition prices just a bit. The tutition price raise comes to about $45 for a 3-day class and is negligible for one-day or half-day classes. By choosing now what you would like to take, you can keep your cost at the same level as last year, or even a little below.
To sign up for any class, email me the name of the class, the date, your name, address and phone number. I'll put you on the roster with a note to give you the discount when the time comes to pay your tuition.
You can always see my teaching schedule at a glance on my website, www.DynamicEquilibrium.com. Use the menu item "Calendar" on the home page to easily view all my classes. You can also click on "Professional Classes" and see a list of classes offered for massage therapists and bodyworkers OR click "Personal Growth Classes" to see a list of classes that are for everyone.
Scroll down this newsletter to see what's up for the New Year!
And please know that I DO NOT cancel classes in October because I know that my students depend on these classes to renew their licenses in a timely manner.
Regards,
Nancy Toner Weinberger

The material in this 3-day course will give you a foundation in the bodywork that I have joyously done in my practice for over 28 years. Based on my understanding and interpretation of the Trager® Approach as taught by Dr. Milton Trager, who I had the pleasure of studying with. Dr. Trager was a physiotherapist and then an MD. Combined with his experience of transcendental meditation, he came to an understanding of how the mind influences body; he believed that every restrictive condition in the body was a reflection of a restrictive condition in the mind, and worked in a manner that allowed him to reach the mind with profound effects on the body. As Milton said, the development of the work is in each of us, and so now I share with those who care to learn, how this work how developed with me, as well as how it has developed me as a person.
Come learn a new way to work. Read more by clicking on the title link above.

A reflexive therapy of the connective tissue, this structured medical massage protocol was developed by a German Physiotherapist and enjoys widespread use in Europe. The technique is particularly useful for difficult to treat conditions, including most inflammatory conditions, adhesions, breathing problems, menstrual problems, frozen shoulder, blood pressure, migraines, sinus conditions, to name a few. Treatments engage the reflexes of the connective tissue and the autonomic nervous system to bring on powerful healing responses in the body.
All treatments begin at the sacrum, activating the parasympathetic portion of the autonomic nervous system. Treatments are generally given to the client in a seated position; the client wears underwear and a hospital gown.
Each course is constructed of 4 modules which are 4 hours each. For the Basic Bindegewebsmassage course each student is required to receive one Basic sequence session (approximately 1/2 hour) from a classmate or professional between the first and second weekend of the class. Courses are only open to health professionals. Sixteen CE hours are awarded to massage therapists and body workers for each completed course.
Click on the title link for lots more information about this powerful modality.
Important note regarding taking these classes! Students must participate fully in the class in order to receive credit for the class. Therefore they must RECEIVE the work as well as give it in class. A brief health history is required when you enroll in the class. If you have contraindications for receiving Bindegewebsmassage, you will not be able to take the class at this time. This includes pregnancy. The health history is also taken so the instructor can be informed about health conditions students might have, and monitor how much work students receive so they will not be overworked in the classroom setting.
