There is a new statistic that 13 million Americans suffer from fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is clinically expressed by pain all over the body, clinical depression, etc. It is a fact that massage therapy is the single most effective method in all of health care in helping patients with fibromyalgia to manage their symptoms and to come back to normal life (most fibromyalgia patients are functionally debilitated by their pain/depression.) On DVD #3 Boris explains in detail the developmental process of fibromyalgia and also demonstrates the hands-on protocol initially proposed in the 1970s by a group of scientists from the 2nd Moscow Medical School under the leadership of Professor Anachkin, MD, PhD. He then demonstrates the special protocol of full-body massage for patients with fibromyalgia as well as exercise program. Also covered on this DVD is pregnancy massage. As pregnancy is considered a medical condition, the therapist who wants to provide massage for a woman in this condition must be aware of the special considerations that must be taken with this type of client. Boris teaches hands on step by step how to perform safe and effective pregnancy massage.
