December Updates!

I hope this Holiday Season is a great one for you and your family! I have attended another couple of workshops and am happy to bring these services to those who have need of them!

I attended the most emotional workshop in my career, giving bodywork and therapy to burn survivors. This workshop covered the different types of scar tissues and how to address and provide relief for them, as well as a lot of the emotional struggles and trauma that burn survivors endure in their everyday walk through day-to-day life. I am overjoyed to now be available to this special community and hope to become part of their answer.

And back in July, I attended the Graston Technique Module 1 course. Graston Technique uses a variety of surgical grade steel instruments to apply various strokes and manipulations to bodily tissues to get them to release and bring relief and regeneration. It’s surprisingly effective even with gentle applications. If you have been on my table in the last several months, you have probably already been on the receiving end of some of these applications. And, I made the investment of purchasing their official tools, which now means that I can say that I am officially a Graston Technique Provider.

And Lastly: Serota Massage Therapy will be closing soon… and Integrative Massage & Bodywork Association will be open. Nothing substantial will change, as I will maintain this website and my current address, and I, Bernard Serota, will still be taking appointments and providing my services. But there will be a new intake form and “membership” service consent contract, and I may be changing my booking scheduler… maybe. The membership contract is purely about my clients giving consent to receive my services and will have no ongoing obligation that you will need to worry about. Details to come soon. Until then, Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Happy New Year, and every kind of joyful Seasons Greetings that there are! HAVE THEM ALL!!
