DVD Reviews of Massage Therapy for Professionals
DVD Review: Very disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this as part of a very reasonably priced Combo set. Unfortunately, the material, all of it, is of very poor quality, both in presentation and content. It looks like very old material rehashed.
The "Professional Massage" DVD is NOT advanced and would make a reasonable "Basic Massage" DVD if it was re-edited (e.g. move the anatomy to the start and use better graphics), the Shiatsu sections removed and the sessions re-recorded in higher quality.
The associated workbook is very poor compared to other books available; there are no detailed diagrams of the muscles to be massaged! Etc., etc..
In summary, this is a load of old material well passed its sell-by date which should be re-done rather than resold. You do get quite a lot for your money, but you would do much better to save up and buy a higher quality product.
PS Re Available Material: A review of (better) massage material (DVDs, books etc) available can be found at the TerraRosa massage web site
It scores the Massage Therapy for Professionals video 0/5 and says "A complete waste of money & time. Another deceiving series. It is blurry, cheaply made and filmed on a home video. The first part shows some massage techniques by a "professional", and the second part the narrator gave a lecture on the anatomy of muscles on a whiteboard with hand drawn pictures."
It also scores the Basic Massage Therapy video 0/5 and says "This DVD is a waste of time. Available on the web and Amazon with great hype and labels such as "#1 best seller" & "A must see" by Dr. Heith Root, "Golden Web Award". "Recommended by Indiana College of Oriental Medicine", This college is a Martial Arts College run by a church. Showing June a "certified therapist" giving Swedish massage from a distance."
I should have read this before buying the set
Not only are this company's products apparently highly rated by obscure/bizarre/non-existent organisations and "experts", I note that many of the rave reviewers appear to (i) have bought many/all of this company's products (and largely only their products, no other massage products that I can see), (ii) rated them all 5/5 and (iii) used extreme, over-the-top superlatives to describe these very mediocre products. One of the products is even given 5/5 by someone who admits that they have not yet bought it. Some of the products seem to have been reviewed several times by the same person, with different stories as to how/why they bought them and how wonderful they were. All very Puzzling.
