Deep Tissue Massage: An Integrated Full Body Approach – Coordinating Deep Tissue and Myofascial Release into a Fluid Bodywork Session
The new Art Riggs DTMTES deep tissue and myofascial release DVD set include seven discs with over 9 hours of comprehensive instructions. After countless requests from therapists who loved Deep Tissue Massage and Myofascial Release but expressed challenges working therapeutic philosophy and techniques into their practice, I created a second volume.
Rather than distinct sections of the previous set, I move from A to Z, covering the whole body in a standard sequence. I begin in the prone position and then proceed to supine, with an entire segment devoted to the important side-lying position. Since the focus is on smooth massage, I spend less time on biomechanics and go into great detail on the strategies, techniques, and anatomy offered in the first set, but with more specific nuts and bolts techniques.

Rave Reviews
“This is the best educational massage DVD I have ever encountered! Great job Art! If you want to be successful in your practice and have clients follow you and book with you months ahead, buy this DVD, this price worth all knowledge, theory, techniques he demonstrates! This DVD is equally fantastic as his first DVD series! You will enjoy it immensely!”

“Thank you Art… I’m watching your second set of DVD’s. I’m not sure which one is better but both are a must. I also own other DVD’s by other instructors but I can honestly say that you are the massage therapist’s massage therapist. I learn much from other instructors but your DVD’s are more real “in the trenches” work. Again, thank you for such great work and being a great person.”
