This 26 hour class offers a mixture of Orthopedic Massage, Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release and Muscle Energy Technique. In this class you will become skilled at performing a full body postural evaluation using range of motion tests and visual analysis on each joint. Then students will learn to release restrictions in each joint using static pressure, pressure with passive motion, pressure with active motion, along with a type of resistance stretching. We will also make many of the muscles out of clay, so you will be able to see the muscles through the skin. After taking this class students will be able to reduce a client’s pain by 90% in one session, and increase ROM. You will learn how to impress your clients by testing and retesting, (which demonstrates the affects of your work after the session).
