Professional Biography
Richmond C. Dickson is licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to practice Massage Therapy. He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Alternative Medicine, and has been formally trained in Myofascial Therapy and Structural Integration, which he has been practicing professionally for over 20 years. Richmond has been teaching Yoga, Musculo-Skeletal Anatomy and Kinesiology since 2004, and he has developed yoga-based protocols to provide balance to the body by offering a contrast to the tissue-shortening patterns of typical weight-based workouts and exercises.
Richmond studies Hatha Yoga with Shandor Remete and Emma Balnaves, and he completed a formal course of study in Ayurvedic Medicine at the Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health. His approach to manual therapies and yoga grows from an interest in the potential therapeutic benefits that arise from the proper use of standing, sitting, folding, breathing, and simple meditation practices, as well as observing the impacts of diet and lifestyle choices in day to day life. His teaching focuses on the subtle shifts that take place in the body’s posture and alignment as one's awareness is moved from one place to another, while maintaining a consistent central point of balance.
If you have acute or chronic pain that you have been unable to find solutions for, Richmond has had a relatively high rate of success working with all of the common, and many of the not-so-common pain conditions that arise in the human experience.
