Our Vision

At Intent Publications, we strive to educate, inform, and empower our customers with dynamic learning tools for the health-care practitioner and general public. While most of our products and seminars are designed specifically for the Clinical Flexibility and Therapeutic Exercise (CFTE) work,  massage therapists and other allied health professionals will find our intelligently designed products unique in the field of body work.

Our History

In 1991, Kinesiologist Timothy Agnew started Intent Publications after becoming disappointed with the look and quality of products in the physical therapy profession. While rooted in the sports medicine field, all of the products at Intent Publications are designed to serve many types of therapies such as chiropractic and physical therapies. Intent continues to strive to empower every type of therapist, regardless of modality used. At the same time, we hope to educate the general public with effective self-help media that is simple to understand. Today, Intent Publications exists as a independent publisher of videos, DVD's, books, and continuing education seminars for physical therapists and other allied health care providers, as well as the general public.
