The World Massage Conference is the world's first virtual massage conference. It will be held Nov. 17 to 22, 2008. Over 50 top massage experts from around the world will be teaching in virtual online conference rooms throughout the six-day event.

The conference is simulcast through online streaming audio and over the phone. Attending the conference is as simple as logging into the World Massage Conference website and stepping into the presenter's virtual workshop.

Participants will be able to listen to each presentation as it's happening live and follow along with the slideshows or provided notes. People without Internet access can attend the live broadcasts by phone. And people who can't make the live presentations can listen to broadcast recordings online or can download the recordings minutes after each presentation is finished.

"We wanted to make sure that the World Massage Conference was accessible to massage professionals everywhere. By using innovative online technology massage professionals can get access to presenters---true legends in the industry---that they would never otherwise have an opportunity to hear in person. Not only that, but they can interact and

ask the presenter questions," says Melanie Hayden who with Eric Brown and Scott Dartnall created the virtual conference.

Some of the over 50 noted presenters include Thomas Myers, Dr Leon Chaitow, Dr John Upledger, Bonnie Prudden, Marion Rosen, Steve Capellini, and Ruth Werner.

Each day has a specific theme featuring the latest in new and innovative ideas in the profession including business, technology, research, wellness, techniques and treatments.

"Because the conference is so accessible, both from a technology and financial standpoint, we expect this to be the largest event in the history of massage with thousands of participants from around the globe attending. We have 8,000 initial registrants in the US alone" notes Brown.

"Green is a major theme of the World Massage Conference," adds Dartnall. "With a virtual conference you don't have to travel by plane or car or stay in hotels, reducing your impact on the environment and reducing your carbon footprint. You just need to turn on your computer to get instant access to the top minds in the industry."

Ground breaking "virtual" conference brings the world of massage to your living room - November 17-22, 2009

The World Massage Conference being held November 12-17, 2009 is poised to be the largest event in the history of massage with over 10,000 massage therapists from around the world already registered.

"With three months to go, we're looking to far exceed last year's record of 11,600 participants," says Scott Dartnall, one of the event organizers.

The World Massage Conference is a “virtual conference” which you can attend from the comfort of your home or office. It brings together more than 70 international massage therapy educators and experts who will be doing live presentations over the Internet for the six day event. Talks will cover the latest developments in massage techniques, research, treatment, educator skills, business and self care.

Speakers include: Sandy Fritz, Paul St John, Judith Aston, Thomas Myers, Ruth Werner, Linda Tellington-Jones, Leon Chaitow, Cherie Sohnen-Moe, Gil Hedley, Tiffany Field, Ralph Stephens, Steve Capellini, David Kent, James Waslaski, Eric Brown and dozens more renowned massage experts.

Registration fees start at $59 and give participants access to all presentations. "Accessibility has been a driving principle in the development of the conference," emphasizes Eric Brown, who has been largely responsible for the technology behind the event. "Anyone can afford to attend. And from a technology perspective, even people with slow dial up connections can listen to the sessions without any problems."

"It's truly a green conference," explains Melanie Hayden, another of the organizers. "There's no travel involved. Participants just log into the website at the time of a live presentation to listen to some of the top minds in the massage industry. And everything is recorded and archived so if you can't attend live, it's not a problem. Just listen in when it's convenient."

An exciting element of this year’s show is the Virtual Lounge where you can meet and interact with your colleagues, meet new friends and learn from the experiences of fellow massage therapists from around the globe. You’ll be able to discuss various issues through online forums, chat in real time, discuss presentations as they are in progress, IM or email individual participants, share pictures, videos, and more!
