Go Deep with Ease: work smarter, not harder

Deep work is one of the most often requested techniques in massage.  Many therapists expend enormous effort and cause physical strain and injuries to themselves trying to provide the most benefit to their clients. Protect your thumbs, wrists, back, and body!  This course is particularly helpful because it addresses not only the needs of clients but also extends the length and quality of the therapist’s career. It provides techniques that aid in the prevention of injuries. Go Deep With Ease:  Work Smarter, Not Harder is designed to help all therapists provide any level of depth required or desired for the most therapeutic, beneficial and satisfying results to clients.  The principles learned here can be used for any modality.

 

Targeted Deep Tissue™–Upper Body Basics

This class is designed to show you how to get amazing results in a short period of time with minimal effort.  TDT uses basic principles with specific movements and methods to work on some of the most prevalent and chronic problems that massage clients present with.  The focus is on the upper body (neck, shoulders, arms, hands and upper back) with specific techniques that will make a world of difference to your clients. This work is perfect for clients with a limited range of motion, adhesions, old surgeries and previous injuries.

 

Targeted Deep Tissue™–Lower Body Basics

This class focuses on treating common problems and injuries of the lower body.  We will concentrate on the lower back, pelvis, abdomen, legs, knees, and feet.  Low back pain is one of the most prevalent complaints in our culture.  Problems with the legs and feet affect everything above them, causing a multitude of problems in the hips, back and even in the neck.  Knee pain can be chronic, sometimes debilitating, and often stems from lack of mobility and muscles not working together as they were originally designed to do. This class gives you new tools and techniques to address these issues.

  

Stone Workers Basic – An introduction to using Stones as Tools 

The intention of this class is to introduce the art of hot stone therapy, stone care and how to utilize them as massage tools.   Our techniques are designed to help you as a therapist acquire skills and incorporate the use of hot stones into your practice.  The use of stones for therapeutic body work is an ancient practice. Moist heat penetrates deeply into muscle tissue and eliminates toxicity, encourages blood flow and nutrients, and eases away tension and stress. Discover how to use these magnificent tools to benefit both you and the massage experience of your client.

 

All of the above classes are Saturdays – 9am to 4:30pm, with 7 CE hours. The location is IN PERSON at our classroom in Meherrin VA.  For any questions, please call or text:
