Day & Night Massage Program Instructor
Before becoming a massage therapist of almost 20 years, Tedy Narvaez spent 3 years volunteering in several physical therapy (PT) settings while fulfilling his PTA prerequisites at SCC. He assisted in several areas of PT including rehab at Florida Hospital, pediatrics at Arnold Palmer Hospital, geriatrics at a retirement community, and sports medicine in Altamonte Springs. It was at that point in his life that he observed that the power of touch, intention, and a sympathetic ear all played significant roles in the process of pain management and recovery.
Tedy decided that PT was not hands-on enough for his interest, so he pursued Massage Therapy. He enrolled at FCNH, where he completed the Basic and Advanced Medical Massage Programs. Soon after graduation, his advanced instructor encouraged him to take a temporary position as an assistant in the massage clinics. What initially was a transitional teaching position, became a true calling. Within 3 months he was teaching massage clinics and assisting in the lecture classes. He found a passion for teaching that rivaled his passion for healing others. He taught at FCNH for almost 12 years and taught the Advanced Medical Massage program for 7 of them. He continued to develop and improve the curriculum and is proud of the fact that he graduated a select few ‘elite’ therapist each year. When asked what his goal is with teaching, he often responds with, “I teach to give them confidence, to inspire them in their chosen field, and to encourage a life-long passion for learning and self-growth that will remain with them throughout their lives.”
Tedy Narvaez, LMT has been a licensed massage therapist since 1998. He has achieved National Certification through the NCBTMB and has been associated with the FSMTA since licensure. As owner of Integrative Touch & Bodywork, he set out to achieve the same principles as his private practice: To facilitate the healing potential within his patients, to treat the patients according to their needs and to educate the public about the benefits of integrating massage into a medical wellness plan that focuses on self-awareness, stress-reduction, and preventative measures against pain and injury.
