Working Deeper Massage
Advanced Level Workshop
with Katyayani and Sharon Bull
Course Overview
This ever-popular workshop addresses the very common queries that many massage practitioners have concerning how to work effectively with enhanced pressure and precision. Very hands-on, this weekend is aimed at providing practitioners with solutions to just these questions by supporting and furnishing them with a variety of more advanced skills and techniques that can easily slot into their existing therapeutic and holistic practices, whilst enabling them to work that bit deeper on their clients.
Over the two days, we will explore elements of Oil-Free Deep Tissue Massage focusing, in particular, on those typically knotted and more tricky areas of the back, in fact along the entire length of the spine from the tail to the neck. This is very precise, deep work – often working directly over the spine - that is invaluable in giving practitioners the ability really to rectify such a common problem for so many clients.To this we will add Hands Free Massage techniques using forearms, elbows and reinforced wrists and hands deeply working the entire length of the body whilst avoiding any strain upon your hands or fingers. Finally we will also incorporate a selection of deeper movements and stretches from the world of Thai Massage. These movements have been tailored specifically for use on the couch during the course of a more conventional massage treatment and so are exceptionally useable by the practitioner.
By the end of the workshop, participants should feel genuinely more confident to tailor their work in a more ‘remedial’ or generally deeper fashion whilst, at the same time, maintaining a truly holistic approach both to their clients and to their massage.
