NO APPROACH TREATS LOW BACK PAIN MORE EFFECTIVELY THAN A MEDICAL MASSAGE!
Now there is a successful protocol you can follow to treat it!

The 2010 Global Burden of Disease Study (Lancet) stated that low back pain is among the top 10 diseases and injuries that account for the highest number of years lost to ill health and disability worldwide. Low back pain is the leading cause of activity limitation and work absence throughout much of the world, imposing a high economic burden on individuals, families, communities, industry, and governments. In the United States, an estimated 149 million work days are lost every year because of low back pain, with total costs estimated to be in the US between $100 to 200 billion a year (of which two thirds is due to lost wages).

The number one complaint massage and manual therapists address is with the lower back.

Wouldn’t it be great to have a go-to protocol that works so well that whenever your clientele has back complaints they choose you as their first line of defense?

Join school director Larry Heisler in this one-day hands-on workshop that specifically addresses lower back complaints. Larry will take you through all the aspects of his protocol exploring causes, contributing factors, contraindications, long term strategies and more.

I have performed over 60,000 massage hours on thousands of world class athletes since 1975. The number one complaint I have treated in my entire career is lower back pain. It took me many years to develop and understand but I now have a very specific and successful protocol that combines deep tissue muscle stripping, trigger point therapy, myofascial stretches, shiatsu power points and hydroculator steam packs. You will learn the entire process of my treatment protocol.


Larry is one of the premier massage therapists in New Jersey with a lifetime of clinical experience. His hands-on approach to soft tissue complaints with medical massage and specifically for lower back issues is unparalleled!
— Dr. Henry A. Katz, M.D., Internal Medicine

Great education! I have learned so much in a one-day class that I didn’t learn in school. Wow!!! — Larry Yellin, M.S., LMT

Soft tissue complaints need to be addressed by soft tissue approaches. This is what makes the type of work we do invaluable! It gives us our niche.

As a medical massage therapist, you are a soft tissue complaint specialist, and
NOBODY TREATS SOFT TISSUE BETTER THAN US!

Larry will specifically address the complaints brought to us every day in our practices and how to clinically assess and develop a treatment protocol using the advanced techniques we have learned. We will then continue by spending the remainder of the day in supervised practice, honing and developing the skills we have been immersed in. If how you get to Carnegie Hall is practice, then we're going to tune up your hands for a great healing massage symphony.
