As a new massage therapy student this was a fantastic tutorial!’

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

I really appreciate your feedback!!!! Good luck with your school 🤗

[@beeimaginative]

Forgot to mention how great it is to have information in Spanish and your shirt is wonderful.

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

Thank you! Yes I do my best to have subtitles on most of my videos. When I can afford it I do it ❤️🤗

[@sarahmitchell7700]

Maria, you are such a kind and wonderful soul for posting your wisdom and creating content like this. It is really really helpful for people (like me) who didn’t get as much one-on-one hands on technique in school as they would have liked. I have gotten so much useful info out of your channel and referred other therapists who were struggling who said you were helpful as well! Thanks so much, be blessed.

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

Your comments are a blessing in so many ways! Motivate me to keep going & helps with the algorithms too! I appreciate every one of you that take time to leave comments and give me feedback! Helping others is what it’s about!

[@yengsabio5315]

Since the beginning of COVID19 quarantine restrictions here in the Philippines, I have not had a massage. Though I do self-massaging & use pressure point rods, nothing beats the hands & dexterity of a good massage therapist! But my dogs, hahaha! They are truly enjoying the massage that I do to them which, by the way, I learned from watching your videos! Lots'a love, coffee-cheers, & Mabuhay, from tropical Philippines!

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

Hello Yeng. I had not read a comment from you in a while. I know this year was challenging for many of us. I’m happy to read that you still figured out how to continue practicing. I’m sure your dogs are very grateful. Maybe that can be a new career for you too. Massaging dogs! I’ve been wanting to do a video on that I just never got around to it. Thank you for your support ❤️

[@mememe2223]

Hi Maria, no matter how basic the concepts are, you always bring profoundity and freshness. The strength of effleurage ( flow + glide ) comes from legs(horse stand/ archer stand) and there are a few variations: 1) with fingertips (on erector spinae 2) with hand in hand/ two hands 3) fist/fists 4) forearms The strength of petrissage ( to mash or to knead) comes from body and we’ve got some variations as well: 1)ocean waves 2) C-bowing 3) mashing with fist and reinforced with fists 4) milking 5) praying hands Thanks for teaching! Have a beautiful Friday! (Dimple’s Day 46 Diary)

I always struggle with my body mechanics, especially when i work on huge clients, who wants deep pressure.😫 This video is so informative. Thank you 🙏 for sharing it with us!

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

Body mechanics are very important so that you don’t hurt yourself! Bigger clients are more challenging however I shared with my clients that it’s not about the deep pressure! It’s about being specific! Narrowing where they need for you to focus and work it out without hurting yourself!

Hello! A question for you if I may: would you consider to make a video only related to fascia release techniques. I've found a few, but I'm afraid I suffer from an extended myofascial syndrome and fibromialgia so I'd love to be able to find something meant to be for the entire body, also obviously the body is the sum of its parts and a disease is partially body and partially mind. Yet, let me know if you could tell me. Many thanks in advance and congrats on the channel. Truly informative and educational. Thanks!

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

Thank you for the feedback! I am sorry to hear you have myofascial syndrome & fibromyalgia. I know it can be painful. I can highly recommend Massage Sloth who is the expert on myofascial release. His videos are very good! You’ll probably find more answers there. It might take a while for me to put a video together. Let me know if it helps. Ian is pretty amazing. You will find him on KZbin too! Best of wishes for you

[@claragpariente]

@@MassageTherapeutics915 Thanks so much for the good info! I will totally take a look into his profile and continue to follow your good directions. Love your style on both teaching and massaging. Great vibes and hands! Thanks again :)

[@claragpariente]

@@MassageTherapeutics915 Also, if you don't mind, do you know any channel, video or similar with myofascial pain massages but without the explanation? I actually watch to feel relax but I need full commitment with the video and I can't do that if someone is talking, specially when I am on the stretch! Some people like to talk, so some therapist. I do not find it relaxing at all :)

[@MassageTherapeutics915]

@@claragpariente I have a couple of Asmr videos that you can watch to relax. I don’t know another massage therapist that has myofascial release videos sorry. Look under my playlist of Asmr see if you find anything there that will help.
