Tammy McCue


I am a master myoskeletal therapist (MMT) with a PTA degree. After a formal education in athletic training, physical therapy and massage I can definitively say that I have learned more in my advanced trainings with Erik Dalton than I did through any of the college courses I have taken. MAT has helped me to look at my clients differently. I now look for patterns rather than simply following pain. I am very excited to teach how the art of myoskeletal alignment techniques meets the art of massage.
