Where the diverse road started for me: My jump off point in manual therapy

My journey into manual therapy started way back during my college days.  But the road of learning widened when I joined the certification course offered by UST.  The primary instructors were Sir Valentin Dones and Sir Leomil Adriano.  I am truly grateful to them for opening up this road for me.

Since then, this road has opened up many avenues for me.  There are many roads to take indeed, and the journey becomes even more colorful and interesting.  But all roads should lead to just one destination: the betterment of the patient's well-being.

Give value to what you do.  Then people will see the value in you.

 

Proverbs 22:29

New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)

 Do you see a man skilled in his work? 

 He will serve before kings;
 he will not serve before obscure men.

New Living Translation (NLT)

Do you see any truly competent workers?

They will serve kings
 rather than working for ordinary people.
