In "Deep Massage 1 - How to Combine Structure and Energy in Bodywork" will learn 30 new clearly articulated and demonstrated techniques that will add immeasurably to your therapeutic repertoire. Enhanced understanding of the body's anatomy - both structural and energetic - will result in greater inspiration and benefit for both therapist and client. In Deep Massage 1 you will immediately be able to use this work with all your clients.
Learn:
- 30 new Deep techniques for the back, pelvis, legs, front torso, shoulders, arms, neck, and head
- How to affect fascia through the thixotrophic effect
- The "fulcrum" model - a systematic method for cultivating optimized touch quality
- How to simultaneously engage the myofascial and nervous systems
- The 12 Working signs of mindbody healing - observation skills which facilitate greater therapeutic impact
- A higher level of "psychomechanics" as well as body mechanics
- The 7 Dimensions of Touch - deeper exploration of centering, enhanced movement, breath, graceful verticality, heart, understanding and inspiration
This class singularly explores a new philosophy and practice of massage, an approach to touch therapy that affects clients deeply, not necessarily with more pressure, but with a more profound and vital connection. In a world where virtual reality holds prominence, hunger for the experience of actual reality becomes more pronounced and urgently necessary. Deep Massage: The Lauterstein Method conveys a powerful therapeutic route for dramatically relieving pain and tension, optimizing wellness and wholeness of body, mind, and spirit.
This workshop will cover all the theory and techniques from David Lauterstein’s Deep Massage Book, reviewed as “the most innovative book in bodywork in the last 30 years,” which is the required manual for this class.
For therapists who wish to become certified in Deep Massage: The Lauterstein Method, this class is the first 20-hour segment in the 60-hour Deep Massage: Certification Program
