Douglas Warner, BA, MS, LMT, MA 0018608
Douglas Warner, BA, MS, LMT, has been a Florida Licensed Massage Therapist for the past 13 years, and a member of the AMA Team for the past eight years. Doug is certified in Neuromuscular Therapy, and Thai Medical Massage, both of which he offers at AMA. Doug is also trained in Prenatal Massage, Therapeutic Touch, and Reiki. Doug teaches massage therapy at Suncoast II School of Massage in Tampa, FL.
Neuromuscular Therapy is a deep tissue approach to body work which focuses on relieving the symptoms of muscular skeletal dysfunction due to injury, postural distortion or repetitive misuse of the body. Thai Massage, the traditional massage of Thailand, is a unique approach in which the client remains clothed in work out clothing, as in yoga, while the massage is performed on the floor on a futon. Thai Massage utilizes massage, acupressure and passive stretching techniques, and is a favorite at AMA.
A unique feature at AMA Fitness is how massage therapy, personal training and Pilates training are often used in conjunction with each other to treat the "whole" client. Working closely with each other, Doug and the trainers can compose a training and therapy protocol which addresses the various facets of the clients' fitness needs.
