IHM vs RFM - What is the difference?

I have had a number of inquiries with regards to the difference between these two forms of massage so I thought I would compare the two here for you:

IHM
30-35 min. treatment
done while client is sitting
practitioner is standing to give the massage
portable, only need a chair
50 massage techniques learned

RFM
50-60 min. treatment
done while client is lying down
practitioner is sitting for most of the treatment
need a massage table
60 massage techniques learned

For both we are working on the same areas: shoulders, arms, neck head, face ears and chakra balance. The Face Massage spends 25 minutes on the face. There are 10 techniques that overlap between these two forms of massage.
