Ron Fine

Ron Fine's life-long interest in natural healing has led him to study massage, bodywork, movement therapy, nutrition, yoga, tai chi, meditation, herbal medicine and wild food harvesting. He has traveled extensively though Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and India observing and studying a wide variety of indigenous healing modalities. In 1982 he enrolled in the Stillpoint School of Massage in Amherst Massachusetts. He became certified as a therapeutic and deep-tissue practitioner in 1983. After graduation Ron opened a private massage therapy practice in Amherst. He returned to Media in 1987 and opened a private practice. In 1991 his desire to deepen his skills led him to the Trager Certification Program, which he received in 1993. In 1994 he began studying Biosomatics, a movement reeducation system based on the work of Dr. Thomas Hanna. He received his certification in 1995. In 1995 Ron studied active isolated stretching with Aaron Mattes in his Sarasota clinic. In 1999 he became a certified yoga instructor at the Sivananda ashram in Paradise Island, Bahamas. He continues his studies with classes, workshops, meditations and retreats.

In over 20 years of practice and 10,000+ massages, his training in multiple techniques allows him to tailor each session to the individual needs of his clients. He believes the most effective approach is a partnership between practitioner and client. He encourages his client's participation during therapeutic sessions, aware that their communication is essential for refining and amplifying the results.   His focus is in educating the client towards deeper body awareness and awakening them to potentially unhealthy movement patterns, taking home tools they can utilize to continue the process of reeducating their bodies.   He has learned that his most successful clients are those who embrace their own health
