Course description:

Playtime! This class is not to be missed. In three short hours, you will lean how to take care of all of your body parts that you use to massage. In other words, the "tools" of your trade! Constant repetitive massage positioning creates the same problems in our bodies that our client's complain about in theirs. So, learn what to do to relieve your stress areas, and move forward with your own healing process. You can even share these simple techniques with your clients.

 

You will get to experiment with all sorts of toys and learn the best way to use them in your daily routine. Some of the products that you will learn to use are:

 

Backnobber
Jacknobber
Theraband
Sacral Blocks
Still Point Inducer
Foam Rollers
"Fascia" Balls- Available at HHI!

 

 

Proper positioning of your body while massaging on the table and chair will be reviewed. You will learn grounding techniques to assist your stance and intent. A review of thumb and hand protection will also be included. You will be able to purchase any item used in class through Hands on Healing Institute. The office carries the book "Save Your Hands!" which offers massage therapist practical, medically sound information on how to recognize, prevent and treat injuries. Bodyworkers can benefit from the common sense tips and real-life suggestions in "Save Your Hands!"
