I have taken three CEU courses from your company now. All three were excellent. The books provided I always keep, they are very good. I would buy them even it it were not for taking a CEU course. The one I just took, Tui Na, was so helpful to my knowledge of ways to help my clients/patients. I've been doing massage for 25 years. The way you do the course with the study guide and then the exam is a true learning experience, for me, each time I take one of your courses. Thank you for providing such excellent and relevant material. - Karen N.
I was truly happy that every question followed was in order within every chapter of the book, instead of searching the entire book. - Tessa Powell, LMT
