(News -Record photo) 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.
