Past Presenters

Erik Dalton, Ph.D. earned clinical psychology/philosophy degrees from the University of Oklahoma. An inspiring presentation by Dr. Ida Rolf in 1972 sparked a rewarding adventure into somato-psyche relations leading Dalton through a maze of learning institutions, such as the Menninger Foundation (biofeedback), American Institute of Hypnotherapy (neurolinguistics) and Mueller College of Holistic Studies (massage). In 1983, Dalton graduated from the Rolf Institute® and later earned official recognition as a Certified Advanced Rolfer. In 1989, a traumatic neck injury spurred a self-healing inquiry into the neurologic relationship between muscles and joints. Throughout the next decade, Dalton studied with leading manipulative osteopaths which prompted the integration of osteopathic principles into his deep tissue practice. Thus, the seeds for his Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques® were planted. Dalton serves as Executive Director of the Freedom From Pain Institute®, which is dedicated to the research and treatment of chronic pain conditions. Erik Dalton shares his broad therapeutic background in massage, Rolfing® and osteopathy in his entertaining and informative pain-management workshops, books and videos.

David Luther is the father of insurance billing and reimbursement for the medical massage industry. David's twelve year track record speaks for itself; his expertise is unparalleled. David is a dynamic speaker with a personality that exudes empowerment and he is passionate about teaching massage therapists how to practice legally within the medical community and receive superior financial compensation for their work. As a writer, teacher and software designer David is considered the foremost authority on insurance billing, documentation and office management. Those who have spoken with David know that he prides himself not on his opinions, but on his facts. His long experience in the business has provided him with this catalog of facts. He has billed millions of dollars to insurance companies, serving hundreds of patients who had no alternative for receiving the medical treatment they needed. David believes that sacrifice required to learn and properly execute insurance billing is minimal relative to the therapist's reward, both emotionally and financially. www.tmmo.biz
