Ross is a dynamic and unique practitioner in many therapies including:

• Therapeutic Massage
• Neuro-Linguistic Programming
• Bowen Therapy - Senior Instructor Level II Trainer

Ross has been a qualified instructor of Therapeutic Massage Therapy since 1983 and was a senior instructor of Bowen Therapy for 8 years (1997-2006).

However, Ross' qualifications do not adequately reflect his ability as a practitioner. He has a unique and special gift that allows him to see each client's need at that moment, to know what to do and to adapt so that the treatment is acceptable to the client. This chameleon approach has long been the major success in Ross's technique and produces outstanding results.

He ran busy clinical practices in Mt Isa (1981-1999) and Townsville ,Qld, Australia ( 1999- 2008 ). Ross now travels throughout Australia and the world lecturing and holding seminars on his own unique insight into bodywork. His students range from allied health and medical practitioners to remedial therapists.

Emmett practitioners come from a broad cross-section of the medical profession throughout Australia and New Zealand. These practitioners are highly adaptable to the needs of their clients. The Emmett Technique offers a valuable addition. Using the neuromuscular release, and verbal enhancement skills, it helps practitioners more accurately assess and treat a patients' needs, while integrating it with their particular technique.

Ross has developed two courses that are suitable for everybody to learn and help better care for their clients, families and friends. Learn the Emmett Technique as a practitioner, health worker or a therapist with the medical profession. Alternatively, learn the EMM TECH Short Course for carers, trainers and coaches.

How did it start?

Originally establishing a massage business in Mount Isa in the early 1980's, Ross Emmett developed a reputation for getting fast, effective results with his clients. His busy Mount Isa practice saw on average, 100 people per week.

Due to his location in the Australian Outback, his clientele over the years were often people from cattle stations and mines situated hundreds of kilometres away. They had limited access to therapy and limited time for treatment. The visits to town needed to provide instant relief and lasting comfort for these clients due to their inability to receive follow up treatments.

Bowen/Emmett Integration

The integration of the Emmett Technique is not a new idea. Ross developed his technique as a youth working on animals while working at the Animal Research Institute. Later he combined these skills with older proven therapies such as massage, trigger and other muscle therapies with outstanding results.

The integration of Emmett Technique and Bowen Therapy came about in 1988 after Ross attended a Bowen course in Brisbane. Bowen was known as an adjunct to all natural therapies. On returning to Mt Isa, Ross began to apply this new knowledge to his treatments, and so began the integration of these two therapies.

After mastering Bowen Therapy, the close comparison between Ross and Tom Bowen had been noted and Ross was approached by many Bowen Instructors and therapists to put together courses on the combination and value of both therapies.

These two relatively new therapies will allow you to discover a faster way to ease pain and improve your treatment with results you may not have achieved before. This combination of the therapies is adapted to the clients needs and is result driven. It is not procedure based, relying on a 5-7 day wait period for possible results.

Ross is now sharing this experience after 17 years of proven clinical practice and client referrals from Doctors, Physiotherapists, Massage Therapists and Bowen Therapists.
