Review The presentation of the videos is clear, the pace appropriate and instructions and explanations precise as they are pertinent...To Riehl's credit, his knowledge of the subject matter is evident and he makes some of the concepts, like pelvic torsion and subsequent compensations, useful even for advanced therapists. All viewers will gain insight into the nature of myofascial pain in the torso and extremities, and effective treatments. Giving clear instructions and explanations, Riehl encourages intuition while competently and carefully teaching the mechanics of this powerful treatment approach. --Massage Today P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); About the Actor Sean Riehl has been teaching massage since 1990.

full of techniques and knowledge
I am a massage therapist works for Massage Envy in Indianapolis, and I purchased more than 3 dozens of DVDs concerning massage and bodywork; those two deep tissue DVDs (extremity and torso) are my favorite. I learned so much and come back to watch them again and again, each time I learned more new things. My clients and coworkers (who traded massage with me) told me that I exceeded their expectations and I received many requests for a newcomer (less than 2 months of employment). I found some scratch on my 'torso' DVD and I contacted the company, they sent me a replacement DVD within the same day of receiving my email. Great service too. I appreciate their professionalism and highly recommend their top notch products. Thank you.If I could afford only two DVDs of massage technique, I'll certainly buy those two. Thank you again.

If you are a licensed Massage Therapist...this review is for you.
If you are a licensed massage therapist...this review is for you. If you are buying this just because then maybe you can catch a few pointers. On a positive note...I purchased a chair massage DVD from the same company and LOVED it!This DVD on the other hand, is not worth your time or money!!! Save it...and if you don't...I told you so! It starts with a Play-do happy theme with the muscles and then it the entire dvd has no structure or flow. It has both you and the DVD flip flopping with not enough detail and way too fast of a pace. I would've rather donated my $50 I spent to charity. "Running time-70 min" doesn't include the time wasted. You probably get 20-25 minutes worth of techniques.

Good Intro to NMT
Deep Tissue by Sean Riehl means Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) as Leon Chaitow, which is different from Art Riggs' Deep Tissue Massage, which is direct myofascial release. Good introduction to NMT, Sean narrated the theory and showing the techniques in a clear and systematic way, almost textbook. The computer graphics is excellent. As with other videos from Real Bodywork each section is ended with a summary and quiz.

Very technical
This is more geared to the student of massage. If you have the patience for the technical details of neuromuscular technique, then this video is for you, if you want your husband to learn how to give you a good back massage, keep looking ;-).
