2017 Rhode Island Massage Therapy Convention: Registration Open!

RI Blogger is proud to sponsor the 2017 Rhode Island Massage Therapy Convention  this Fall! From October 27 – 29, attendees can join the message therapy community in Rhode Island for an inspiring weekend of fun. Hosted by the American Message Therapy Association’s Rhode Island Chapter, the event is back for its’ second year, after a successful inaugural tryout in 2016.

The convention will offer various enlightening and enjoyable opportunities, like: top industry experts, a cocktail reception, meals (including a large banquet with dinner and dancing) and networking opportunities. In addition, and perhaps most vitally, the weekend boasts a collection of classes for convention-goers to take part in. A few to expect are: Integrated Manual Therapy and Orthopedic Massage for Lower Body Condition, CranioSacral Therapy: The Role in Treating Low Back Dysfunctions, Thai Foot Reflexology and Reiki I.

Ticketholders will also be excited to know that the President Elect of the Massage Therapy Foundation, Doug Nelson, is set to present three different classes for the convention: The Mystery of Pain, Precision Neuromuscular Therapy (PNMT) for the Arm and Hand, and Precision Neuromuscular Therapy (PNMT) Shoulder. All classes can be found on the official website.
