About The Event

We know that the body holds tension and repressed emotion. Many of us, however, do not know what specific tissues are responsible for this occurrence. In this workshop you will learn to identify, manipulate, and release myofascial tissue that holds chronic, painful, and exhausting stress and tension. By the end of the workshop you will know how to release this unwanted stress in the chest, neck, shoulders, hands, back and waist, in other words, over the whole upper body.  In addition,  you will gain an understanding of the relationship between posture and emotional attitudes and how constricted myofascial tissue leads to creating and reinforcing emotional negativity. The strokes will be taught in sequence so that once learned you will be able to give a Myofascial Release Massage for the upper body. Imagine how you will feel at the end of the workshop! Your hands will become supple and strong, your neck and shoulders will relax, your chest will be more open, you will naturally breathe more deeply with less effort, and your back and waist will be more flexible. Imagine how your clients will feel after you have mastered theses techniques. The hand, neck, and shoulder work is suitable for on-site application as well as clincial practice. We will discuss the conditions and occupations that will benefit most from this work. Contra-indications will also be noted. 

Please bring to class: set of sheets, towel, and oil. Women should wear work-out bra under clothes.

Massage table provided by the school.
