Biggest class ever graduates
On April 6, the biggest
class ever, eight
students graduated after
weeks in training in the
Pfrimmer Technique of
Deep Muscle Therapy. It
is doubtful that the
classes will dwindle in the
future since Mrs. Therese
C. Pfrimmer has enough
students for the course
for three years ahead.
Medical doctors,
psychiatrists,
chiropractors,
radiologists,
physiotherapists„
massage therapists and
registered nurses have
all asked to come to the-
Pfrimmer'Clinic at RR 3,
Bayfield to learn the
unique Deep Muscle
Therapy. Those that have
studied under the ° ex-
perienced hands of Mrs.
.Pfrimmer have come
from all the states in the
USA, including Alaska
and Hawaii. Australia
and Denmark are also on
the enrollment list and
more Canadian provinces
will also be opened up
with Deep Muscle
Therapy.
Ronald Phelps, D.C.,
D.M.T., came from
Newport Beach,
California to study in
Mrs. Pfrimmer's most
recent class.
"Fantastic," he en-
thused, "It will be a
fantastic addition to my
practice in California,
especially for chronic
cases. We have seen a
multitude of tough cases
responding that
heretofore have been
basically untouched by
orthodox therapies."
Mr. Phelps stressed in
his written assessment of
the course, "Deep Muscle
Therapy should be added
to every phase of healing
throughout the world."
Wilbur Brown, R.T.,
M.T., D.M.T., from
Cridersville, Ohio was
another student who
showed great support for
the Pfrimmer Clinic.
."An excellent course,"
he wrote. "New in-
formation, concepts and
principles and con-
firmations I have had for
years but needed the
approval of a master
teacher to give them real
validity. I will be able to
really help people now
with their emotional and
physical problems.
Equally important, I
have learned many
things about my own
body condition that I
never suspected. Thank
you Therese."
At the age of 70, Mrs.
Pfrimmer is respected by
many for the help she has
given since the 1940's.
"The opportunity to
study and learn the
Pfrimmer method of
Deep Muscle Therapy
has been a very rewar-
ding experience," Pattie
Prewett, M.T., D.M.T.,
from Glascow, Montana
confirmed.
"To see the variety of
cases coming in to the
clinic, that can be, or
have been helped by
Therese is most in-
Siiiring," she went on.
"Thank God this
knowledge of Deep
Muscle Therapy is being
given by its enlightened
founder to the suffering
humanities of the world."
Other students shared
the same feelings.
"I have been doing
Deep Muscle Therapy for
two years and am still in
awe of this therapy in
hopelessly chronic cases.
It has been a great
privilege to see many
conditions helped," wrote
Mary Kish R.T., R.M.,
D.M.T. from Niagara
Falls, Ontario, Mrs.
Pfrimmer's assistant in
training.
John A. Kish, R.M.,
D.M.T., also from
Niagara Falls noted, "I
was delighted ta,. see in
reality some of the cases
I had heard about prior to
being a student in Deep
Muscle Therapy. The
visible results of Deep
Muscle Therapy are most
satisfying for anyone
interested in physical and
mental well being."
Along with being the
largest class, another
breakthrough was that
one student who took the
course was a medical
doctor. Dorothea M.
Linly, M.D., D.M.T.,
from Fairfield, Con-
necticut said, "As a
physician I have been
searching for ways to
relieve suffering. As we
saw patients here and
worked on them, we
witnessed a dramatic
change in muscles and
conditions. I am planning
on using it in cases I am
currently treating and
believe it will be a
valuable addition."
Shirley Mae Walters,
D.M.T., from St.
Louis, Missouri claimed
,that the three week
course at the clinic was a
rare experience:
She explained, "How
fortunate that this truly
inspired woman is
sharing her techniques
with' the world. The
classes are well taught. It
is one thing to have
developed a technique
and quite another to have
the ability and patience to
impart this knowledge to
others. The clinic is
clean, bright and cheerful
and the variety and types
of cases are awesome."
Mark Hanna, D.C.,
D.M.T., will be taking his
training hack to his home
in Honolulu, Hawaii.
"Therese Pfrimmer is
a fine human being," Mr.
Hanna felt, "She has
studied and worked very
hard to develop her work
to a point where it can
help crippled and
paralysis cases that can't
be touched by any field of
the healing arts that I am
aware of. I saw cases
being helped that no
doctor could help. I think
Deep Muscle Therapy is a
new ' hope for many
people around the world.
It is hard work but very
rewarding when you see a
person walk for the first
time. I will now he able to
help cases I could not
touch in the past. Thanks
to a dedicated
humanitarian."
Sandy E. Ostrom, a
registered nurse from
Lynchburg, Virginia,
completed the course
with a new concept of
crippling and paralyzing
conditions.
"The results obtained
from this therapy are
astounding. Thank you
Therese for sharing the
knowledge you have
acquired over the years
of hard work and
caring," she wrote.
