Testimonials
As a full-time Massage Therapist, I often found myself compromising my posture towards the end of a long workday. After taking Gary Schweitzer's Deep Tissue Therapy course my posture has improved, the nagging injuries are gone, and I have more energy at the end of the day. Now with Gary Schweitzer's Deep Tissue Therapy DVD set I have a great resource to remind me of the proper biomechanics and body positioning to minimize the stress on my muscles and joints. The DVDs are an excellent review of the 3-day course and Gary's techniques are easily adaptable into a regular massage. The instructions on the DVDs are clear, concise, and easy to follow for practice in the comfort of your home or office. Gary's DVDs cover the whole body, but the user friendly menu allows you to select the body parts that you want to study. The DVDs flow smoothly from one technique to the next and focus on the practical application of his work, by demonstrating the techniques, and providing time to practice each skill. Gary Schweitzer's DVD set has been an excellent addition to my personal library, and will undoubtedly prolong the length of my career as a Massage Therapist.

I wanted to thank you for the excellent work that you do with the Deep Tissue Therapy. It has made a tremendous difference in my health. I also commend you for producing excellent quality DVD's for teaching your techniques to other massage therapists. I was able to incorporate it into my practice right away and not only help myself but help my patients. As an RMT specialist for 24 years I highly recommend your program.

Gary Schweitzer's Deep Tissue Therapy DVD’s are like having the ability to take his course over again at home. His DVD’s are concise and very clear on hand and body positions and offers a very high standard of quality in regard to the audio visual filming. Thanks for the excellent course and DVDs. They have allowed me to work much longer hours with no strain or pain.

“Easy does it!” - I treat an average of seven patients daily, five times per week; 20 to 60 minutes; light to deep pressure. Gary Schweitzer’s professionally produced instruction DVD’s are excellent for maximizing effectiveness by employing innovative body mechanics with minimal but focused effort. He has developed functional, biomechanical tools that RMTs can use to delve deep into tissues and yet avoid serious occupational injuries that can jeopardize their careers. His specialized approach imparts specific manual techniques to locate and manipulate soft tissue structures without using excessive force. Schweitzer’s Deep Tissue Therapy incorporates harmoniously into my existing repertoire. These videos are an excellent resource for demonstrating step-by-step techniques with precise details of hand placements and body postures that will enable us to practice our professions for the long-term, safely. Thank you, Gary for making this knowledge available to massage therapists.

Being the mom of a toddler, the convenience of home study is invaluable, as is the added bonus of having a great resource always on hand for review. These DVDs are well put together and organized, and the filming gives excellent views of the techniques that Gary is demonstrating, as if you're there in the room with him. I've implemented many of the techniques and principles into my practice and have had a very positive client response. I highly recommend this DVD series. -Niki Martinus, RMT "I diligently practiced my deep tissue techniques every night to the Schweitzer deep tissue DVD's I purchased them in order to try and perfect my techniques. They are amazing! It's just like taking the course over again - critiquing any technique that you didn't quite grasp during the course - only its one-on-one and in your own living room! The DVDs are very well done and I recommend it to everyone taking the course to purchase them."

One reason why I took the course because of a very tiny female client, maybe 4'11" and maybe 95 lbs soaking wet, The first time I massaged her she asked me to go deeper at least 4 times, I thought I was going deep enough but not for her. A month later, I had her again and at what I thought was the deepest I could go, she asked me to go deeper, I tried but I do not think I made her to happy. I heard that Gary Schweitzer was coming to Winnipeg, but I had no time to go but the pamphlet also said I could purchase the video and study on my own time, I bought the course. When my little 4 foot eleven client showed up the next time I was ready, I warmed her up and when I started Gary's method I asked her how the pressure was, she said " Very Good” and five minutes later I asked her and she said it was excellent. Not one time during the massage did she ask me once to go deeper. Thanks Gary

In August 2008 I took the first two parts of the four part DVD Series. I found the video series easy to follow. The information given was well laid out and professionally demonstrated. I was able to incorporate it into my practice the next day. I am looking forward to taking the next two parts of the series.
