Session 1: Head, Neck and Shoulders
Most of us living in this modern culture are afflicted by poor posture. This is just the external symptom of the deeper habits that have been cultivated over the many years of our lives. With most of us sitting in front of computers, driving or performing other repetitive tasks that are in front of us, we have developed a pattern of being overly tight and hunched. This postural habit is one of the main contributing factors to so much of the discomfort in our upper bodies.
In this Part 1 series workshop, you will learn how to properly and safely treat aches and pain that most commonly affect the upper body. You can quickly and easily learn some basic massage and bodywork techniques, without hours of study or practice.
This mini workshop includes but is not limited to:
locating, treating and releasing trigger points in the upper shoulders
gentle assisted stretching to release chronically tight neck muscles
understanding pressure points, how they contribute to headaches and how to effectively treat them
learning how to safely and effectively use different parts of your hands and arms as tools for treatment
*Although it is possible to work through clothes, it is most effective to palpate the body with skin-on-skin contact. If comfortable, please wear clothing that keeps the upper body mostly exposed.
