Geri of Seminars for Health is amazing. Ive taken a few classes and she is a very knowledgeable and understanding woman. She values the students who want to learn and have questions and are willing to put in the leg work. Classes are well put together and usually at easy to get to locations, usually with free parking & WiFi.

I love learning from Shirley Damberger ! She is teaching the oncology courses which I feel is highly important and so desperately needed. The Fundamentals of Oncology was presented much differently than I envisioned. I thought it may be more ‘pathologically’ based...if your client presents with this-than do specific treatments...instead it was full of caring how to s in truly supporting the client with cancer through Massage Therapy or really clients with any critical illness or trauma. Great course!

The Holistic Nutrition for Digestion was very well-organized, up-to-date and very useful for myself and my clients. The instructor was knowledgeable and engaging. Would highly recommend this course for a concise overview that opens your eyes to the role that nutrition plays in day-to-day health - beyond the the Canada Food guide.

Best upgrading I have ever encountered in my 23 years of experience as a RMT. Thanks again Linda Hoppe for Making this happen! We always look forward to upgrading now.

I recently took the Dynamic cupping course in Calgary, and man was it worth it. Since I started schooling and recently my career in massage therapy, I had always wanted to learn cupping as I had always thought it was a particularly helpful adjunctive therapy...I was not wrong. Ever since I started using it in my practice, the amount of positive feedback I get has doubled. People keep telling me how much it helped them and I'm so glad! This course was totally worth it and I would 100% recommend.

It's very informative course (Dynamic Cupping). Thank you Shirley and Michelle for sharing your knowledge to us. I definitely going to get another course next year in Seminars for Health.

Love taking courses through Seminars for Health. Just took my Advanced Cupping with Geri in Calgary, she never disappoints. Thank you!

I have taken a few courses with Seminars for Health and they have all been great classes! The teachers are knowledgable and helpful. The students are cooperative and personable. I have learned so much and am able to implement this knowledge into my practice right away.

SFH offers the best continuing education courses and certifications. I use the techniques that I have learned in the courses everyday in my practice to help and educate my clients. They have been a game changer and it has taken my practice to another level! I highly recommend any RMT looking for CE credits to take SFH classes!

I want to thank Mara and Linda for helping me get through the Kinetic Massage Course . I am very excited to be a Kinetic Massage Therapist.

When I took TMJ intraoral level 1 in 2017, I have to say I was a bit overwhelmed and unfortunately didn’t get to practice on as many people as I would have liked too!Taking level 2 last weekend, just brought back all my excitement and interest on working with clients with TMJ dysfunctions!This class was such a great refresher of the things we learned in level 1, and it gave me a chance to deepen my skills, but we also learned a lot of new techniques to work on muscles and structures that are often missed/forgotten about! Mara is such an amazing teacher and a wealth of knowledge!I have taken almost 10 classes with seminars for health, and all of them delivered what they promised!Looking forward to integrating my new learned skills. Thank you SFHSpecial shout out to Jill (customer service and operations), for answering all my questions and helping me booking the proper classes

I was very impressed with the instructor and content of the TMJ Level 1 and 2 course. It was a fantastic course and I will definitely be signing up for more of Mara's classes. I had to fly in for the course from out of province and felt it was totally worth the expense and time.

I completed the self care course for upper and lower body. All of the exercises and stretches I learned can be done everyday in between clients, even if you only have 30 seconds or a couple hours to spare. I thoroughly enjoyed the teacher, shes intelligent, beautiful and really enjoys what she does, and that relates to me to keep me motivated to practice more self care for my clients and myself. Thank you!

Participated in TMJ Level 01 & 02. Mara Boaru is awesome instructor. Really thankful.

Margot Sherrington

03:25 05 Nov 19

Attended the TMJ course in Edmonton (level 1 & 2). Found it very comprehensive with Mara being extremely knowledgeable in her anatomy & physiology in the area we were studying. Her research really helped answer any and all questions she was asked. There was a lot of hands-on to help cement the knowledge and techniques we were given.

Totally enjoyed the Mindful Meditation Massage course. I love taking courses that are in alignment with my personal journey as well as my professional journey. And LOVE the smaller class size environment.

Allyson Kristine

02:20 30 Oct 19

Highly enjoyed the Mindful Meditation this weekend. Geri listened and let discussions in class be open. Learned a lot and it certainly has inspired me to expand my knowledge in the topic! Thank you Geri! (Also loved the early bird special on the course price)

Lana Williams

19:15 29 Oct 19

I highly recommend the Fundamental Oncology course. It was not only very informative but it was presented in an organized, down to earth format. I walked away with a greater understanding of a largely misunderstood aspect of cancer as it applies to massage...can’t wait for the clinical part to be covered in the Oncology certification course!

Wanda Ross

17:56 29 Oct 19

I recently completed the Prenatal Massage course and found the instructor very personable and knowledgeable. Course length is just right as well. Will be taking more Seminars for Health courses in the future!

Loved the SFH Pre&Postnatal massage course has given me more confidence for my clients and new knowledge. The hands on experience is top notch. Thankyou

Catherine Kemp

Thank you to this fantastic organization for providing to us health practitioners and the general public,great courses with which we can keep learning and sharing . Fundamentals of Oncology provided me further insight into the care and safety of cancer patients, proving massage is a very valuable tool in their treatment.( mind, body , soul).

There is a need for oncology massage. I can’t recommend this enough.

I recently took the Mindful Meditation Massage two day course and I loved it. It grounded me as a therapist and inspired me to add this modality to my practice. I believe many clients can truly benefit from this service and I am thrilled to be able to offer it.

Tammy-Lee Greschuk

15:36 23 Oct 19

Participated in the Dynamic Cupping course in Edmonton this weekend. I've had 15 years of experience and I can honestly say this is one of the best courses I have attended! It will definitely add to what I am able to achieve therapeutically for my clients! There was a large amount of hands on technique time and having the videos playing with the techniques during our practice time really solidified what we saw in the demo from the instructor. Order more cups for yourself with the course because you will want them!

Kurt Isfeld

02:01 22 Oct 19

Just did a two day cupping course. Very happy i did. Great expérience.

Alyssa Folkestad

01:57 22 Oct 19

I enjoyed taking my cupping course through seminars. My instructor was very knowledgable and answered all of my questions. I do wish that the cups they do provide was the starter pack instead of just the four. Overall my experience was amazing and I do wish to continue taking courses through seminars for health, Thank you so much.

I am a second massage therapy student and I just finished the Fascial Decompression course with Denny. He is an amazing therapist to learn from for 2 days! I highly recommend it to add to your knowledge and skill base!

Dana Schnittke

22:42 09 Oct 19

Highly recommend the Fascial Decompression course. Denny was extremely knowledgable and his passion for the content was evident throughout the 2 days. Lots of "hands on" time enhanced the learning.

Michelle Frazer

14:07 09 Oct 19

The Fundamentals of Oncology Part 1 provides the theory and many resources for how and why massage therapy can be safe and effective for clients with cancer. Shirley Damberger (facilitator) has a heart-centered teaching style. I feel excited to learn more and excited to take the next course!

Brittany Biggin

11:55 09 Oct 19

I was hesitant taking an oncology course for fear of it being the same generic stuff we learn in school but the fundamentals class was very informative and definately added to my confidence while dealing with clients with cancer. The instructor was personable and the Seminars admin staff are quick to respond.

L Velazquez

03:13 09 Oct 19

I was extremely impressed with both the content and presentation skills in the TMJ Intraoral with Precision course. The balance of instruction and hands on practice was perfect in my opinion and I left feeling very confident in the new skills I learned. Mara is a fantastic instructor! I’m looking forward to kinetic massage in the new year, and I will definitely take more SFH courses after that.

Tracey Fitzhenry

Took prenatal massage last year followed by post natal last weekend. It was very pleasant, and nice to be in the classroom again for some refreshers

Tashmeen Lalani

18:15 01 Oct 19

Going back to a classroom setting after so long can be difficult for some but I can assure that you are in a safe place. Linda, Marla, Jill and the SFH team provide a nurturing environment for learning. No question is not answered and there is always time for the instructor to go over something one-on-one. Trust me, you are in good hands. Highly recommended!

Heather Dickson

20:31 24 Sep 19

I loved the Kinetic Massage course I just took, full of great techniques and Mara is great as an instructor so knowledgeable. I look forward to implementing what I learned for my clients.The fact that they provide tables for their students is a definite bonus, however, having the option for students to purchase a traction belt from them would be great.

Henry Ma

My Kinetic message was a great refresher and a great learning experience.Love the instructor and it was a lot of fun. I call it a learning vacation

I recently finished the Dynamic Cupping course with SFH, and I really enjoyed it. The instructor, Jocelyn, was kind, thoughtful with her answers to questions and demonstrated excellent skill in cupping. The class itself had good material and was thorough. I left the class feeling confident in what I had learned and about integrating it into my own practice. I would definitely recommend taking this course through SFH.

David Galarza Cuesta

Great experience with SFH! The Dynamic Cupping course and instructors were incredible. Valuable indeed! Highly recommended. Can't wait to take the next course

Yvonne Cartwright

I recently did the dynamic cupping course with seminars for health in Calgary. I thought that there was great hands on learning, and the review game at the end was very helpful to embed the written information into our memory. The instructor was very knowledgeable and kind, I would definitely recommend.

Natalie Christensen

14:34 19 Sep 19

Such an amazing experience! I am an acupuncture student & found this course extremely beneficial to put towards my future practice. The techniques used in class are not taught in my program so it is helpful to gain extra knowledge on cupping therapy.

Trrrina

13:54 19 Sep 19

I attended the dynamic cupping course in Edmonton and I was almost going to change to a Lymphatic one instead, but changed my mind & I am really glad I attended this one. I learned so much and the instructors were awesome!!

Kelly Hunter

I would definitely recommend the Advanced Orthopedic Massage course for anyone who is wanting to improve their skills as an RMT. The instructors were knowledgeable and did a great job at teaching the concepts, in a way that was easy to grasp. Thank you so much Linda, Marina and Mara! I will be back for your other PD courses in the future.
