 Greetings!
May you and your body experience the depths of relaxation and vitality. We invite you to jumpstart your New Year's resolutions with some invigorating Tui Na, restorative Swedish massage. pain resolving Deep Tissue or pattern shifting Bars. Our clinics are bustling with students and lots of happy clients - bright faces and open bodies. We invite you to take a break in your day with our Tui Na special or classic Swedish session. Tui Na massage is an ancient Asian modality that rhythmically opens the meridian channels and muscles. Swedish is our classic circulatory, "feel good" massage.
If you like getting massage, our students say learning to give massages and energy work is even better. We invite you to join us for two very special evenings next week- our Level I invitational and Bars invitational. Once you learn to fish, you have the power to nourish yourself and others.
Blessings,
Katie Mickey
Director of the Santa Barbara Body Therapy Institute

What's Possible with Tui Na
 "My neck was really bothering me. Erick noticed that my Gall Bladder channel was compromised. He did some Tui Na clearing on the channel - my legs began vibrating and my face got hot and red. It made a huge difference. It was much more than just a massage. I left feeling 10 pounds lighter and much healthier. He is a wonderful energy worker." -Sarah Kreitzer, SBBTI 550hr student, commenting on her session with Erick Hudson, SBBTI Tui Na instructor
 "I've received lots of Tui Na/Deep Tissue blends from Erick Hudson. The rhythmic pressure is really effective in penetrating my tight muscles. It's interested me enough that I want to learn the techniques." -Sally Camara, SBBTI 1000hr graduate, commenting on her sessions with Erick Hudson

Level I Invitational
Free Intro Evening: January 19th 7pm-8:30pm
Receive a chair massage, a mini chi gong session and mini swedish massage. Experience the benefits of massage and self healing exercises. Meet instructors and students.
 "Although it's been 15 years since I completed Level I training at BTI, the impact the Chi Gong training continues to have on my bodywork is amazing. It has improved my balance, stamina and overall energy, and given me the core strength and endurance to consistently provide top rate bodywork. I strongly believe that Chi Gong has allowed me longevity in a successful massage career. Thanks BTI for giving me the tools to still be going strong!"
Julie Menicucci, SBBTI graduate, Spa Director of Spa del Mar at Fess Parker's Doubletree Resort |
Bars Invitational
Free Intro Evening - January 22nd (Fri) 7pm
Workshop: January 23rd (Sat)
 Receive a mini energy balance (Bars) session. A full Bars session comprises 32 points on the head that correspond to the electromagnetic component of thought. When held with light touch contact they increase blood circulation to the brain and vital organs and release the electromagnetic componenet of thought.
"After receiving Bars my anxiety eased. The relief in my body was immediate and allowed me to be more present. I began to sleep without medication. After each Bars session, I slept well and had more energy in the day. I would get so much more done in a day. The mood swings, heart palpations and acid reflux eased as well. Prior to my cancer surgery I would have intense PMS. My husband would "run my Bars" and I would have relief mentally and physically. Over the years, I have shed 200 lbs without dieting and went from being confined to a wheelchair to being physically active- walking, gardening, and even dancing. "
