The Medical Massage seminars presented by Dr. Jeff Cullers on behalf of Dr. Ross Turchaninov and the Science of Massage Institute is the only program in America that has been scientifically tested by independent sources (Saybrook University) and is currently being reviewed by the Mayo Clinic and the UCLA Medical Center as part of their Integrative Medicine programs.

SOMI is the original – and still the only – completely valid source of 100% science-based Medical Massage in America. That’s because only SOMI has spent decades gathering all the research and clinical studies from the past 100 years to indisputably confirm every single Medical Massage technique and protocol we teach.

Do the research. You’ll find that all valid Medical Massage in this country comes from one source – The Science of Massage Institute and its founder, Dr. Ross Turchaninov.

While other seminar purveyors may have a few elements “lifted” from us, none come close to our thorough understanding and clinical effectiveness for all aspects of Medical Massage. It is for this reason we are currently in discussions with some of the major hospitals in America, including the Mayo Clinic and UCLA Medical Center.

Only the Science of Massage can offer:
1. A Medical Massage seminar where every technique and protocol is backed by 100% science.
2. Instruction by Dr. Jeff Cullers, on behalf of Dr. Ross Turchaninov, who is considered the Father of Medical Massage in America.
3. The ability to “Watch and Follow” our exclusive Video Library to better learn protocols and techniques.
4. Medical Massage Techniques and protocols not commonly taught in Massage schools in the US.

If you want to spice up your Therapeutic and Stress Reduction or Sports Massage practice by injecting science into your EVERY move, this is absolutely your seminar.
