Excellent, Clear, Thai Massage Workbook, April 20, 2004
Kay Rynerson did an excellent job preparing this book. She thoroughly takes you through 136 movements to complete a great traditional (northern style) Thai Massage. The book includes prone, supine, sideline and sitting thai massage techniques. It's simple, uncluttered layout and black & white illustrations makes it easy to stay in the flow of the massage. I wore out my copy and eventually bought the video. This workbook would make a great edition to a massage therapist reference library

Honouring The Practice of Thai Massage, March 9, 2006
In her book "The Thai Massage Workbook", Kay Rynerson maintains a supportive classroom context for the massage professional and this work is an ideal study for continuing education.
Here, is a well-defined articulation of a classic Northern style of Thai massage. This lineage was of the first to be embraced and studied in depth on foreign lands. North Americans have slowly come to recognize the precious art of Thai massage and now credit is earned where it is due. Rynerson shares the wisdom through her practice and her publishing.
The concepts outlined in "The Thai Massage Workbook" demonstrate safe and effective techniques to approach a wide variety of aches and pains, as well as to address the body from a preventative point of view. The impressionable names of each posture make them easy to remember and the clarity in the illustrations make them easy to follow visually.
Though, much of this medicine is new to the Western forum of practice, the benefits strike a chord of truth. With simplicity, Thai massage gains momentum in the hearts of all those who are open with a willing mind.

Michelle Brown, LMP, April 10, 2005
Excellent format, clear descriptions, very "user friendly". The spriral bounding is a nice feature of this book. Lays flat while you are practicing.

Kay's step by step approach to traditional thai massage is an excellent and easy read. The text is well illustrated and guides you from one sequence to the next with ease. I have found it to be a clear resource and one that is invaluable in expanding my knowledge of the body work industry. Thank you Kay, for your wonderful book and DVD.

The Thai Massage Workbook, August 17, 2005
This is an extremely useful and user friendly workbook. Kay Rynerson has assembled a fantastic library of thai massage positions and put it together with straightforward description and illustration. The spiral bound workbook is also wonderful to reference when practicing new positions. I would recommend this workbook to anyone that is just beginning their thai massage practice as well as someone who has been practicing for years. It is a great contribution to our profession.

Thai massage, February 6, 2007
My husband and I are martial artists and we are taking lessons in Thai massage. The workbook and DVD are very clear and easy to understand. I'd recommend both items for the massage professional and serious student.
