The answer to this is really two-fold: First, it feels great for clients and is very relaxing. Clients are often able to receive deeper work without that painful, poky feel. Second, as much as we love our clients, Bamboo-Fusion® was mainly created as a tool to help massage therapists! Deep tissue massage therapists often have shortened careers due to repetitive use of thumb, wrist, and elbow injuries. Let bamboo take the place of your thumbs and forearms so that you can keep working for many years to come!

The DVDs that come with the bamboo tool sets do show a wide variety of techniques that you can do with the bamboo tools. However, they are not intended to replace learning the technique from an authorized Bamboo-Fusion® instructor. At a workshop, you will earn 16 NCBTMB-approved CEU hours, learn how to comfortably do a full body massage with the bamboo, and you'll have a lot of fun! Our classes are 80% hands-on, so you'll get to give and receive this excellent technique.

Bamboo is a natural element that will change with time and use, so we cannot guarantee it for life. However, if you experience an issue with one of your bamboo pieces soon after purchasing it, please contact Nathalie or your instructor. Nathalie has continually refined the bamboo sets over the years to ensure the highest quality and longevity. Some of our students are still using sets that they bought 8-10 years ago!

We now do most of our registration online! Just visit our Workshops page for a full list of Bamboo-Fusion® classes throughout North America. If you don't see a workshop near you or would like to request private training for your staff or group, contact Nathalie.

After every treatment, utilize antibacterial wipes designed for hands and face to cleanse each item, ensuring they are free from harsh chemicals or bleach. Replace the embroidered cover on the heating pad just as you would with your table linens. Bamboo, owing to its natural properties, possesses antibacterial qualities due to its high silica content and density.
