Testimonial

Mukti Michael Buck’s book on 'Vedic Massage and Bodywork’ is a remarkable contribution to the field of East Asian Healing work. This book is much more than a teaching manual, although it is an excellent teaching manual. This book is an inspired treatise on the art of heart centered healing.

Contained in these pages is a depth of wisdom and technical expertise that can enhance the healing dynamics of a beginning student to a seasoned professional.

Mukti presents profound spiritual teachings as well as very practical advice.

His instructions and suggestions promote the safe and effective application of highly therapeutic techniques as well as serving to help create an environment for deep healing to occur.

“Sunday was not only the high point of the Festival for me, I would have to say it was one of the high points of my entire massage career. I took a class in Thai on the Table from Mukti Michael Buck.

It was the best hands-on class I have ever attended, and I have attended hundreds of hours of continuing education.

Mukti is undoubtedly the most charismatic teacher on the planet.

The bodywork was sensational. The whole class was in such a state of gratitude at the end of it, we were one big melting pot of thankfulness and grace.

I would recommend it to anyone.”
