Go Deep with Ease: work smarter, not harder

Deep work is one of the most often requested techniques in massage.  Many therapists spend enormous effort and cause physical strain and injuries to themselves trying to provide the most benefit to their clients. Save you thumbs, your wrists, your back, your 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, providing a new take on body work that aids 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/desired for the most therapeutic, beneficial and satisfying results to clients.  It is NOT limited to 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.  TDT uses basic principles with specific movements and methods to work some of the most prevalent and chronic problems that massage clients present with.  We will concentrate on the upper body (neck, shoulders, arms, hands and upper back) and the targeted deep tissue techniques that will make a world of difference to your clients. This work is perfect for clients with 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 on 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 it, causing a multitude of problems in the hips, back and even the neck.  Knee pain can be chronic and 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.

  

Lymphatic work for Injuries and Pain Relief

Lymphatic techniques have been able to reduce swelling and pain, decrease healing time for injuries or surgeries and reduce the pain for many terminal clients as well.  It is a wonderful tool for a therapist to have when “regular” work is contraindicated or ineffective.
