...COURSE POLICIES...
Course Content is determined by Taum's studies and
practice of The Berry Method® of Corrective Massage since 1978.
The content is also influenced by interaction with other health care
professionals including massage practitioners and reference materials
regarding the Berry Method® and other relevant published works.
For example: Myofascial Pain and
Dysfunction - The Trigger Point Manual, by Janet Travell, and the
published works of Dr. Rene Caillet.
The classes are revised as student feedback warrants and knowledge
evolves.
