with Bob Haddad
After working the feet, legs and lower body in Thai massage, it is important to proceed with your work on the upper body in a targeted and holistic way.
This workshop raises your awareness of whole-body energy patterns, and helps you connect your upper-body work to the things you do in the first half of your treatments.
In this course you will learn:
- Specialized techniques to release back tension
- Creative ways to work the upper sen lines
- Deep and sensitive abdominal work
- How to use your feet to sense and release blockages
- Lifts, spinal twists and suspensions
- How to use breathing for maximum effect
- Targeted techniques for shoulders and shoulder blades
- How to use your body weight to avoid straining
- Assessment of your client’s body language
- Advanced stretches for the back, arms and shoulders
- Energy release and self-protection techniques
- How to refine and correct your body mechanics … and much more.
This is an exciting, creative and exploratory course for all those with previous experience in Thai massage. We work in all 4 body positions, and plenty of time is given for practice and review each day. Join us !
