ON TEACHING
"In all my years of study, no other instructor had the influence and connection with me to learn the way Tom Karis did. He is a skilled and very knowledgeable instructor at Cortiva Institute of Massage Therapy. I learned more about anatomy and physiology from him than I did at a four year school. And what he taught was immediately applicable to what I needed to do as a practicing therapist. He knows how to get students to think outside of the parameters of a book and push their limits of how to apply knowledge. I wouldn't be the therapist I am without what Tom has taught me. Tom is an excellent instructor and an exceptional therapist." - Charlotte Rackard-James
ABOUT ORTHOPEDIC MASSAGE CERTIFICATION
"Tom Karis has a multidimensional understanding of the anatomy and mechanics of the human body that lends itself to logical treatment applications. This course was amazing and changed my whole treatment approach." - Razelle McCarrick, LMT, OMT
"This course has increased my knowledge and confidence in my ability to work effectively with patients presenting with these conditions. I now have a strong reference point to rely on in formulating treatment plans for my patients. Tom was able to pull information together in such a way that made complex pathologies more understandable." - Cristi Jernigan, LMT, OMT
