  • Chair massage in detail.
Ralph's book goes in to detail, with the history and benefits of chair massage. The book goes over the anatomy of the areas massaged in the chair. Showing the techniques for a relaxation or therapeutic routine. When i went to massage school , our instructor did not spend very time on this modality. The author has a 3 dvd set that goes nicely with the book. I would recommend this to any therapist looking to sharpen his skills with chair massage. ... show more

  • Good visual guide
I have recently become certified as a Massage Therapist, but did not receive any training in chair massage. I wanted a good visual guide so that I could apply what I already know and be able to offer chair massage as a service. This book is a good guide for me.

  • Best when used with the DVD set!
I'm glad I got this book to help me with the dvd set I ordered by the author. Sometimes it's good to have both a video and still pictures to get an better idea of how to perform a certain technique and that seems to be the case with me. Plus it's very enjoyable to read p on the history of Chair massage and how it's helped the Massage profession to move upwards in the health care world. I'm also looking forward to expanding my techniques to better help my clients and give even better results to alleviate pain. ... show more

  • Great reference tool for chair massage
Great reference tool for chair massage. As a new massage therapist with minimal schooling on chair massage this was a great reference guide.

  • I feel a bit ripped off- paid too much
I accidentally ended up paying 6x more for this book than similar ones on the market. The high price always came up and I thought it was a larger text book. Plus the condition was not the greatest like I had hoped. It was mostly new, but some of the pages were bent and you can tell people have thumbed through it a lot. I wanted a new book, not a well flipped through book. I'm keeping it, because it was shipped internationally, and returning it would cost more money and hassle. I'm still happy about the content in the book, but I will definitely do a more thorough price comparison next time. ... show more
