The Advanced Connective Tissue Massage class is a qualitative shift in working with fascia and learning how to create structural changes in the body. These structural changes are dramatic in scope yet simple to achieve through new, sophisticated techniques of fascial palpation and manipulation. These new approaches enable students to work deeper layers of fascia and to understand broader fascial relationships in the body.
Movement Education
The four-day course builds upon the foundation of the beginning Connective tissue Massage training by thoroughly reviewing and then expanding on the fundamental principles of body mechanics. Movement exercises, movement cues and guided imagery are taught to enhance results for both practitioner and client alike. These techniques allow practitioners to work more efficiently and with greater clarity of intention.
Body Observation
This advanced class also transitions the students to learn body observation skills, developing a whole new method to assess client needs. These skills enable practitioners to more easily design and give a Connective Tissue Massage session. Understanding the body observation will increase the student's massage practice as well as prepare them to learn Structural Integration.
