This three-hour class will give you some useful tools for giving an effective massage treatment to two of the most common areas where bodily stress is held: the neck and back. We will start by looking at some basic muscular anatomy of these areas and then do some experiential exercises to explore how you can deepen your healing presence and enhance your body awareness when you are touching someone. A demonstration of massage techniques will then give you some ideas to work with as you practice in a massage trade with guidance and coaching to help you apply the tools learned in class.
