Tue., June 7, 2011 - Applied Lymphology
by Carola Koenig MLDT, ICMT, CRZT, LMT. By Looking at the network of lymph-capillaries, even a person without medical background will understand why it is possible to impact the lymph flow with your hands. Which of course works both ways. You can stimulate flow (decongest) if applied properly, or you can create blockages (lymphedema /lymphostasis) which would be a rather unfortunate occurrence and should be avoided. However, if LE or lymphostasis is present, it is helpful to know how to apply simple techniques to ease that problem. This class in an introduction to Applied Lymphology, including Anatomy & Physiology of the Lymphatic System, Applications & Contraindications of Lymphatic Drainage, and Treatment techniques of MLD (Manual Lymphatic Drainage). Carola studied Medical Massage, Balneo & Hydrotherapy at the Educational Establishment of the University Hospital Neukolln/Berlin, Germany, Manual Lymph Drainage according to Dr. Vodder (Foeldi & Wittlinger), Laser-acupuncture, Low-level Laser-therapy, as well as Basic Education as Special Consultant for Nutrition, Environment, and Health. With so many modalities Ms. Koenig could offer, the class was asked which modality to focus on. The answer was Lymphology.

Looking for a Bonita LMT
A lovely couple from Switzerland come to their Bonita Bay high-rise condo several times a year. While they are here they like to have massages, the wife first, the husband after. I get about 5 or 6 calls a year for this dual massage. I am looking for a mature female therapist to take my place since I am retiring at the end of June. The couple prefers someone who lives close by, a female preferably who has a gentle, soothing touch. There is a very nice massage room in the high-rise, with table and stool. You just need to bring your sheets, lotion, bolster and I bring music too. If interested, call me, Nancy Wilson, and I'll fill you in. 239-580-7957.

Minutes of Chapter Meeting April 5
FSMTA-SW Florida Chapter
Tuesday, April 5, 2011
Board Attending: President Sherrie Easterly, 1st VP Teo Nikolov, 2nd VP John Graham, Secretary Judy Johnson, By-laws Sydney Scheaffer, Legislative Ron Stephens, Immediate Past President Terry Lowder
The April 5, 2011 FSMTA-SW Chapter meeting was called to order by President Sherrie Easterly at 6:00 PM at the Bass Pro Shop. There were 47 members present and one student, with 3 new members signing-up.
President Sherrie reminded everyone about the up-coming FSMTA Convention “Waves of Possibilities” in Orlando, FL June 24 – 26, and invited everyone to try to make it for all or part of the week. We will host a shared hospitality room at the convention on Friday evening with Tampa Bay and Sarasota/Manatee Chapters and all members are invited to attend. The banquet theme for Saturday is “Pearls of Wisdom, Gems of the Sea”.
Second Vice President, John Graham, spoke to the membership about a proposal for charging any member whose phone rings audibly $1.00 and if the member answers the phone in the meeting, to charge them $5.00. The majority of the members were in favor of the motion, however some members felt we didn’t need to police adults in this fashion. It is hoped people will put their phones on vibrate and leave the meeting to answer any calls they receive during a meeting. The fines will go into the “general fundraising” of the chapter and it is hoped we do not have anything to deposit.
Terry Lowder, Education Chair and Immediate Past President, presented a video from the Florida Department of Health on HIV/AIDS as part of the mandatory re-certification requirements. Those members present watched the video and then took the test.
The 50/50 drawing was won by Richard Borowski who won $68.50.
The remaining 2 hours of the evening were discussing Medical Errors which was also presented by Terry.
The next Chapter meeting on May 3, 2011 will be on Professional
Ethics presented by Mr. Ben Dillard.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:04 PM

President Sherrie Easterly called the March 17, 2011, FSMTA-SW Chapter Board meeting to order at 6:03PM, at the Islamorada Fish Company Restaurant. Immediate Past President, Terry Lowder moved and 2nd Vice President, John Graham seconded the approval of the February 17, 2011 Board meeting minutes with the noted corrections. The revised copies are with Secretary, Judy Johnson.
There was discussion to not purchase Immediate Past President, Terry Lowder’s white board. It was also discussed that the Chapter still has a need to have a white board, and also a large easel sized pad to work with at meetings.
It was determined there needed to be an additional notice sent to the membership regarding the early start to the April 5, 2011 Chapter meeting. Terry Lowder was going to send a notice to Website Chair, Nancy Wilson, to see about sending out an e-mail blitz to the membership. Terry also noted he has approved copies of the Spanish version of the HIV/AIDS test.
Immediate Past President and Education Chair, Terry Lowder, will be teaching the April 5, 2011 mandatory classes on HIV/AIDS and Medical errors. There was discussion on who needs what mandatory classes and Terry will make it clear that everyone needs HIV/AIDS and Medical Errors, but if this is your first renewal you do not need Laws or Ethics. He will make approximately 60 copies
There was a discussion on how to expedite the monthly Chapter meeting in April, so we could cover the very busy agenda that evening. We determined we would set the room up starting at 5:30, start the business meeting at 5:45 and the HIV/AIDS video at 6:00. Medical errors would follow the test for HIV/AIDS. The business meeting will be used to update the membership about the annual state convention, the request for additional members to help with website and membership committees as well as any other immediate business we need to have.
President Sherrie Easterly will request 2nd Vice President, John Graham, receive the monthly membership lists from Lynn Hupp at FSMTA headquarters. We want the membership to remember their cards at the monthly meetings, but if they are forgotten, we need to have an updated list to check against. We will ask the membership to make sure to have updated cards available at meetings and to turn their phones to vibrate or off during the meetings.
There was a discussion regarding how to split the website tasks among other members with Website Chair, Nancy Wilson resigning in June. She has done a remarkable job developing the website and Membership lists and will be greatly missed. It was recognized that we may need to split the tasks among the various Board members.
It was decided that there would be a special meeting on April 26, at 5:00 PM, at the Bass Pro-Shop in Fort Meyers to have Website Chair, Nancy Wilson give all of the Board members a tutorial for accessing the website and the various tasks she has been doing regarding the website. She has previously submitted a detailed task list of the variety of jobs this position has been responsible for.
This meeting will replace the monthly Board meeting of April 21, 2011. Immediate Past President, Terry Lowder will bring a projector. President Sherrie Easterly will bring her “hot spot” equipment and 2nd Vice President John Graham will make sure to bring an extra computer. Computers will be brought to the Chapter’s April 5th meeting to ensure they work before the tutorial meeting on April 26, 2011.
There was lengthy discussion about talking to the FSMTA headquarters about developing a form to ensure uniformity of income and information regarding sponsors for the 19 FSMTA Chapters. Treasurer, Robyn Berry was going to draft up an example of what she feels would be the minimum information required of the sponsors and how we ensure they are regularly updated. This is all part of the discussion regarding fees for advertising, who can advertise and what information is required for an advertiser. It was also mentioned that President Sherrie Easterly would discuss this issue at state headquarters and see if such a form already exists.
There was a reminder of the quarterly State FSMTA Board meeting on April 2 – 3, 2011 in Orlando. President Sherrie Easterly and Secretary Judy Johnson are planning on attending and will share a room in Orlando.
The 2011-2012 budget information was discussed. We have submitted the information, in compliance with the requested time frames, to headquarters. President Sherrie Easterly requested monthly accounting and Treasurer, Robyn Berry said all Board members would receive their own copy of the monthly reconciliation and information of monthly transactions.
Treasurer Robyn Berry had the new signature card for Wachovia Bank from FSMTA Headquarters. The Board members who are designated as persons who could sign on the account, signed the new card.
There was discussion regarding House Bill 49 (HB49) and the newest letter from Headquarters. All Board members are requested to contact their local representatives. The FSMTA Executive Board and the Board of Massage (BOMT) are opposing this legislation.
Legislative Chair, Ron Stephens and 2nd Vice President, John Graham, are continuing to talk to potential resources regarding Massage Therapy Awareness Week (MTAW) in October. The San Carlos option was not appropriate for our needs. There will be a follow-up meeting and discussions regarding the potential of setting up at the Lee County Courthouse.
Secretary, Judy Johnson, presented a Chair Massage protocol sheet with considerations for developing a chair massage team. This information came from discussions with members of the Tampa Bay chapter and information available on the internet. Copies of this report are available upon request.
1st Vice President Teo Nikolov gave a report on the Senior Games. It appears the need for help was not as great as originally thought. He will continue to be the contact person for the Chapter. He will also request a copy, from FSMTA headquarters, of the members who are currently certified as members of the Sport’s Team. There was discussion about how often people need to re-certify or if they have a requirement for recertification.
There was a discussion on how the Board could be more effective in recruiting additional help from the membership. It was also discussed how we might want to have a strategic planning meeting to determine exactly what we could do and do well.
Increasing Chapter membership was also discussed. 2nd Vice President, John Graham, discussed the need to get the information to massage school students. A membership chairman might focus some energy getting out to the various schools in the area.
There will be a meeting at Beef O’Brady’s, at noon on April 25th to discuss membership. This meeting is open to anyone interested in the topic. There is a need to assign a Chairman to this committee, define the expectations and ensure we are getting to the members and potential members in our Chapter boundaries.
