I found the DVD to be easy to understand, comprehensive, and the instructions given to be very clear and well thought out. It covers the basics, from anatomy to hand positions and strokes, to correct positions for both the masseuse and the lucky person receiving the massage. I especially liked the Special Features section. Here, the mystery is taken out of all the kinds of massages you may have heard about, and you learn massage terminology--that way, the next time you go for a massage, you will know which modality to choose. There is even a game you can play, which I highly recommend, as it will let you know how much you have learned. Kathy has a great sense of humor and lets you know that this is something you can do. She points out where you can run into trouble, and even shows you how to massage without having a massage table. The production of the video is professional and I can see that once purchased, it is something you will use again and again, while you perfect your massage technique. There is also a sequel, when you are ready, to go further.

With all the stress of today, what a great way to help each other. Instead of giving up that massage that will make you feel so much better, if you can't make it to your therapist, try this alternative. Looks like a lot of fun, too!
