Default Can you go for a full session of ART? How much would it cost?

I was just thinking, if one would go for a head to toe session of ART, how much would it cost?

Not very reasonable.

It would cost thousands and be very time consuming not to mention exhausting for the practitioner.

I've heard of Rolfers doing such things, but it takes several days to complete and is also very costly for a temporary change.

Are you a walking, talking assortment of 200 pounds of scar tissue? If not, I don't think the head-to-toe ART is really necessary.

Have you had a deep tissue massage (non-ART) first? Much cheaper and still provides a few benefits, and a good masseuse can cover a good portion of the body in one session.

No no, was just curious to the cost. I should try deep tissue massage though. Makes sense.

Like Bill said, closest thing would probably be something like rolfing which is usually something like 10 sessions focusing on various areas of the body at $75-$150 per session (from what I've gathered from some googling).
