Certified Neuromuscular Therapist with St. John NMT Seminars
Laura Landsiedel, co-creator of the Integrated NMT continuing education series and Integrated NMT certification program and former Director of Hands On Health’s Bodywork Therapy Seminars, is a certified St. John’s Neuromuscular Therapist since 2000, group practice clinic owner since 2002, and has been practicing and teaching bodywork since 1996. Course work designed and developed by Laura Landsiedel Ford includes Foam Rolling, Glide Cupping, Movement Repatterning, Treatment Planning, Ethics, Myofascial Release, and the I-NMT continuing education course series and optional certification. Laura is passionate about providing a quality continuing education experience for bodywork therapists. Students have often commented on her use of analogy and visual guidance as skilled elements in her teaching style. She keeps you engaged in the classroom and challenges you to think outside the box. Her techniques are precise yet allow for room for each therapist’s individual style. Laura’s humor also allows for lightness in a classroom filled with intense subject matter.
From January – July 2013, Laura joined the staff of the New Zealand College of Massage as a guest instructor. Her experience as lead instructor with their three year degree program is invaluable to her leadership within the I-NMT program and Bodywork Therapy Seminars.
In 2023, Laura retired from the director position at Bodywork Therapy Seminars and currently publishes PERG Magazine and PERGonline, the Professional Education and Resource Guide for Massage Therapists and Bodyworkers.
