Continuing Education
This project aims to facilitate continuing education throughout our community. Sometimes finding someone who teaches a particular modality, skill, or specialty can be a difficult endeavor. New massage therapists often lack the network or knowledge necessary to connect with the right people, determine the effectiveness of a program or gauge if the class is right for them. This project aims to help massage therapists determine which continuing education program is right for them.
In the early stages of the project we will showcase the website, general information, and contact information of each organization. As the project advances we will include a brief bio for each organization, the goals of their CE programs, a section for positive testimonials, and LMT related community engagements. In the final step of this project we will publish podcasts focused on showcasing the amazing leaders, teachers, and advocates of our industry.
The directory will begin with two sections. The first is dedicated to the continued education providers of Missouri, and the second section is dedicated to all other organizations.
Why am I organizing this project? This continuing education project is a labor of love. It is my goal to help foster a fruitful, connected, and loving community of massage therapists within Missouri. I became a massage therapist to help people reconnect with the vibrant light of life, to feel wonderful, and discover peace. I live to be “in the service of others.” Right now massage therapists are hurting. They feel alone, isolated and without guidance. The passionate men and women of our community need our help, and I am here to guide them.
If you would like your classes added to our directory, have any questions about this cause, or how you can get in involved join our support community HERE.

Foundations in Manual Therapy Seminars
Walt Fritz is a physical therapist from Upstate New York, USA. He holds a BS in Physical Therapy and a BA in Community Mental health, both through the University of Buffalo (NY and is currently an MA Candidate at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UK). Since beginning work as a manual therapy educator in the mid-1990s, his approach has evolved into a unique interpretation of manual therapy for speech-language pathology, voice, and related communities. This approach advances views of causation and impact from historical tissue-specific models into a multifactorial narrative, leaning heavily on biopsychosocial influences. Using a model of evaluation and intervention that incorporates shared decision-making rather than clinician-as-expert, his principles apply to a broad spectrum of intervention models. Seeing the utility of manual therapy not as a standalone treatment but as an integral part of clinicians’ more extensive body of work, Walt makes his approach easily assimilated into those treatment protocols.
Walt teaches internationally to speech-language pathologists, voice professionals, massage therapists, physical therapists, and other clinicians through his Foundations in Manual Therapy Seminars, www.WaltFritz.com, and maintains a physical therapy practice in Lima, NY.
