This 1-day Course is for those Massage and/or Aromatherapists who wish to update their knowledge.
It is also the second day of the Advanced Massage Techniques Course. Once Students complete all days of the Advanced Massage Course a Certificate of Qualification will be awarded.
It enables Students to further develop their range of skills and helps develop an increased awareness of issues of health and disease (physical and mental), in relation to the application of Therapeutic Massage.
Soft tissue (muscle, tendon and ligament) work includes stretching and various forms of massage to help reduce muscle spasm, fluid accumulation and scar tissue formed as a result of injury or degenerative condition. A range of movements is used, from stroking (with or without oils) to compression and passive stretching. The more superficial tissues like muscles and fascia are commonly treated but equally important are tendons, ligaments and even viscera.
Muscle energy techniques: where the client actively uses muscles from a controlled position in a specific direction against a distinct counterforce.
