Heartland Institute of Touch Therapies, (HITT)
is the educational branch of Touchwork of Weston, and was founded in 2005 to promote and
present quality education for and about the massage profession.  Courses range from
informative lunch-and-learn seminars for the general public to highly advanced trainings for
professional healthcare providers.  Our passion for massage therapy and related healthcare
issues combined with our down-to-earth teaching style creates a stellar environment for
learning.  

CONTINUING EDUCATION FOR MASSAGE THERAPISTS
Unlike so many other presenters who only share information specific to their own
trademarked technique, HITT specializes in strategy-based education.  Instead of giving
therapists just one more 'recipe', we prefer to explore what, how and why things work.  Our
goal is to give therapists the knowledge and wisedom needed to create their own personal
strategies for successfully serving their clients.  

Both Kirk and Julie hold degrees in education, and Kirk is an approved provider of continuing
education for the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.  He
has taught at national conventions and various state conferences within the massage
industry, has been featured in national trade publications, and has presented seminars for
numerous corporations and civic groups.  His areas of expertise include Ethics, Marketing,
Clinical and Event Sports Massage, On-Site Chair Massage, Reiki, Body Mechanics/Self
Care, and Massage for Emergency Responders.

Upcoming workshops scheduled in the U.S.:

S
etting and Managing Roles and Boundaries, 3 CE hours, PNMT National Colloquium,

Setting and Managing Roles and Boundaries, 4 CE hours, AMTA National Convention,   

We are also proud and honored to continue our partnership with Precision Neuromuscular
Therapy Seminars, bringing one of the top educational opportunities in the nation to Kansas
City.

MASSAGE THERAPY TRAINING PROGRAM

Heartland Institute of Touch Therapies: A 600+ hour massage therapy training program that
is approved by the state of Missouri and the National Certification Board of Therapeutic

personal attention needed, and this certificate program meets all the requirements to sit for
the NCBTMB exam and become licensed in Missouri.
