“I feel like I got more education on bodywork in five days than massage school offered.”

“I have found this course invaluable not just for working with prenatal clientele but also for returning to my bodyworking roots.”

“If you want you life and your massage business to transform beyond where you currently are, attend Chula’s Pregnancy Massage Workshop. You will grow professionally and personally on many levels.”

“I loved all of the fascia techniques and Chula was very organized.”

“My expectations were not only met but this course far exceeded them! There was so much more material than I expected! I can’t imagine learning pregnancy bodywork elsewhere.”

“I am now confident in side-lying and draping which were my goals! This course dialed me in to the style of bodywork I want to be doing.”

“DFR explores categories and subcategories that I hadn’t explored before and I have over 500 hours in education and plenty more in experience. I use the book often in my practice as an informative reference source. All bodyworkers would benefit from owning this book and I also highly recommend taking Chula’s training! “

“I’ve had several opportunities to utilize my training. At work I’ve been using the labor stimulation points to help with inductions, and have been doing a LOT of cross fiber work in the back area.” Angela R. RN, Perinatal Services, Doula

“Chula is a wonderful instructor and highly skilled as a pregnancy/postpartum specialist. Her class was interactive and very engaging from start to end. I’m so glad to receive the training from Chula.”

“I’m happy that I learned what not to do with a pregnant client. The contraindicated points and positioning. I feel more confident and learned way more than I expected from this course.”

As a professional massage therapist, I recently completed the private 1-on-1 Dynamic Fascial Response (DFR) advanced certification program with Chula, and it was an incredible experience. Traveling from San Diego, I flew into Sacramento, rented a car, and drove an hour to Nevada City—a charming town that feels like a storybook come to life! Chula’s provided apartment, nestled in a beautiful forest, allowed me to settle in peacefully before our four-day certification began. She greeted me each morning with freshly squeezed juice and a thoughtfully prepared lunch, and I even got to meet the most adorable cat, Tango, who added an extra touch of warmth to the experience.

The advanced DFR bodywork techniques I learned have already made a remarkable impact on my practice. My clients are noticing deeper, more lasting results, and I’m thrilled to now confidently offer effective bodywork to pregnant clients beyond light touch alone. I can’t recommend Dynamic Fascial Response enough—it’s transformative for both therapists and clients. If you’re considering it, take the leap; it’s a true game-changer!

I would give more than 5 STARS if I could!!!
