Zoë Putnam, M.A., LMT
With a newly awarded graduate degree in research, Zoë’s first assignment in the business world was to develop and conduct a nationwide study. The law department required scientific proof to support the company’s position in a class action law suit. (Yes, the company won the suit.) Subsequent to that, she headed up a unit that codified and, as appropriate developed, the flow of information within and between departments.
One spring, she read a book on massage therapy. That book changed the direction of her life. Zoë’s first certification was in shiatsu graduating from what was then called the New Jersey School of Massage, now known as the North Jersey Massage Training Center, under Larry Heisler. She also studied shiatsu under Pauline Sasaki and Wataru Ohashi.
Zoë has received certification in several other healing techniques as well, including: Swedish massage; myofascial release; Therapeutic Touch (studied under the founders, Dora Kunz and Dolores Krieger); sports massage; Zero Balancing (studied under the founder Fritz Smith); Reiki master; Russian Medical massage (studied under Zhenya Kurashova); and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique, aka 'tapping').
A New Jersey licensed massage therapist, energy healer, and spiritual counselor, Zoë opened her own private practice in 1989. She has taught massage therapists and nurses for their continuing education credits. Her teaching experience includes: Therapeutic Touch— Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced Certification; Ethics in Massage Therapy; Research Basics for Massage Therapists; Emotional Freedom Technique; and Russian Medical Massage.
Her current professional affiliation is with the American Massage Therapy Association, for which she has also served as Chair of the Membership Entrance Examination Committee. In the past she has been a member of the American Oriental Bodywork Therapy Association (now known as American Organization of Bodywork Therapies of Asia), American Holistic Medical Association, Nurse Healers-Professional Associates, and Holistic Alliance International.
Zoë has had articles on bodywork and energy healing published both locally and in national journals. She has been a guest on local television and radio programs. She also wrote, directed, and hosted several programs on the healing power of energy and touch that appeared on local television. In addition to maintaining a private practice and teaching, Zoë holds seminars and lectures on a continuing basis.
