About Raynor
30+ Years Teaching Massage That Goes Beyond Routines
Raynor College teaches a different approach to bodywork. Not memorised sequences, but a complete system for finding and releasing residual tension through the body's bands of tension.
Founder
Brandon Raynor
Brandon Raynor developed Raynor Naturopathic Massage through decades of clinical practice, study, and teaching across Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland, Canada, the United States, and Mexico.
Brandon has been in private practice since 1991 and began teaching his method in Sydney in 1997. His work brings together deep tissue massage, Ayurvedic massage, Shiatsu, Thai massage, Chinese medicine, reflexology, Lomi Lomi, Swedish massage, and yogic breathwork into one coherent treatment system.
Instead of teaching fixed routines, Brandon teaches practitioners how to identify and release residual tension throughout the body using Raynor's system of bands of tension.
The Method
Other Schools Teach Techniques. We Teach You to Read the Body.
Raynor Massage is built around finding and releasing residual tension through connected bands running through the body.
Bands of Tension
Students learn Raynor's system of 28 bands of tension connecting the hands, feet, head, and core.
No Set Routine
Treatments adapt to the person. You learn to feel tension patterns, not memorise sequences.
Deep Holistic Integration
The method integrates deep tissue work, acupressure, breathwork, and natural therapy traditions.
Neglected Areas
Raynor works extensively with hands, feet, head, abdomen, hips, and sacrum where residual tension often hides.
How It Works
A Clear System for Releasing Residual Tension
Raynor practitioners are trained to trace tension through the whole body instead of spot-treating isolated symptoms.
Find Residual Tension
Identify chronic tightness still present when the body is at rest.
Trace the Band
Follow connected tension patterns through Raynor's bands of tension.
Release the Restriction
Use deep tissue work, compression, stretching, and breath awareness to release tension.
Restore Natural Movement
Help the body relax, move more freely, and let go of long-held holding patterns.
I had an incredible 6 days learning more in depth Raynor massage last week in Australia. Brandon Raynor is so passionate about his teaching that his courses are priceless.
