Ruth Bucher, LMT, MI, CE
Ruth Bucher was born and raised in Switzerland. A first visit to the USA as an exchange student left her with the dream of coming back. In 1991 she realized this dream and came to Texas.
The desire for a career change led Ruth to the massage therapy profession, and in May 1995, she graduated from Hands-on Therapy School of Massage in Garland, TX. There she was first introduced to the TRAGER® Approach in a continuing education class in 1997. In 2000 she earned her certification as TRAGER® Practitioner. Her passion for the work motivated her to become an Introductory Workshop leader and massage therapy continuing education provider in TX.
Ruth is consistently continuing her education and advancing her knowledge in the massage therapy and bodywork field.
Ruth's ultimate goal as a massage therapist and bodywork practitioner is to assist her clients in achieving optimal health, including relief from stress and pain by natural means, and to provide her clients with the best possible care.
Part of this goal is to introduce the TRAGER® Approach to more clients, and extend knowledge about this wonderful BodyWork / Movement Education Modality to massage therapists and healthcare practitioners in the DFW area and beyond.
