INJURY PREVENTION PALOOZA

See Upcoming Class Dates

Providing our clients deep tissue and firm pressure body work doesn’t have to hurt, them OR us. Injury prevention isn’t just about what to avoid. This intermediate course will give therapists the tools they need to provide deep tissue massage without relying solely on our thumbs.

This class is a combination of our Thumb-Free Deep Tissue Class and our Cupping w/Silicone Cups Class.

In this course you will learn:

• Why the anatomy of our hands and arms helps clients but may hurt us.
• Simple, easy to follow principles for preventing injury, including body mechanics and ergonomics.
• How to provide "Thumb-Free" Deep Tissue techniques for the neck, back, arms, hands, legs, and feet.
• What cupping is and how it works, including identifying the benefits of receiving a cupping service.
• How to perform different cupping styles (static, glide, flash).
• Specific cupping treatments for the neck, back, arms, and legs.
