When I went to massage school years ago (not here) I remember the feeling of being super excited to…read moreget my hands on a body to practice my new techniques. My school did not have student practice like this one but I wish it did! I have been having trouble with my hips this week and I haven't found a therapist I've liked. I need therapeutic help! I was thinking about how in school we would just practice the therapeutic techniques on each other and I wished I could go back....so I thought why not! I googled student massages and found this one. I didn't know what to expect really but it was only $35 for 50 mins, so why not try. The building is easy to find. The office door is locked and they have to let you in. You have to pre pay and fill out an intake form. Your therapist will take you to their "cubicle" which are curtain walled rooms, a massage table, and a chair to put your items down. Admittedly but feels a little funny getting undressed in these curtain walls. I knew no one could see me but anyone could just pull it back I suppose. The massage was actually excellent! I got just what I wanted, a therapeutic target on my issues. Thank you Kabrina! Afterwards she brought me water and I was dizzy walking up to the desk. After the massage you are to fill out an evaluation form and provide feedback. This is amazing for student therapists! Please fill it out as much as you can! No tipping here for the service so please provide feedback. I will be back in two weeks

For this I need to thank the owner/instructor Michael Eakin for his dedication to teaching.

At first I thought it was because I was in a small town, but now that I compete with the big boys in the Big Apple, I can see that my results far surpass what the majority of other therapists can accomplish. I have become the local fixit guy for people with chronic pain and disabilities. Oftentimes I surprise myself with the degree of improvement clients experience. Most telling is my mother's condition. For 16 years she suffered increasingly bad sciatic pains associated with scoliosis, until she could barely walk a few steps without being wracked by sharp pains. MDs, PTs, MTs, and acupuncturists had all given up on her. After moving back to NY I worked on her using what Michael taught me. Within 2 months Mom was walking for over an hour at a time. She has plateaued, but her level of functioning is way beyond what she put up with for 16 years. Michael, thank you for being so generous in sharing your knowledge. You are the best!

She made sure the pressure met my needs. She made sure the blanket was warm, she made sure all my needs were met. I was extremely pleased with my visit today and I will definitely go back.

It's a positive, supportive and beneficial program. All the mentors and staff are super helpful and care about each and every one of their students. NHI is like a second home to me.
