Saturday, April 26th: Trigger Point Therapy: Neck and Shoulders 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM with Jason Garcia Cost: $110 Neck and shoulder pain and discomfort is common for most of our clients in all of our practices. In my eleven years of practice, I have found that the most successful approach to alleviating their neck and shoulder issues is through trigger point work. There are numerous muscles that can harbor active and latent trigger points, which can directly be the cause of their pain. We will discuss and work on trapezius, scalenes, suboccipitals, splenius capitis, semispinalis capitis and levaotor scapulae. Effective techniques and proper use of hands, fingers, thumbs and fists to access these muscles will be emphazised. For those of you looking to advance your skills to the next level or for seasoned trigger point practitioners hoping to add additional techniques, this workshop is for you. You will learn to palpate trigger points in these muscles, understand their development from muscle overuse and how to apply effective techniques to release these points. Your clients will find instant connection and relief from their muscle pain and countless overuse syndromes. In all my years as a massage therapist, trigger point work has been the most effective technique in relieving my clients’ minor discomforts or major physical trauma. This is part one of a two-part trigger point workshop. Part two will be on the Pelvic Floor. Sign up for both workshops for only $210 ($10 Off). Individually each workshop is $110. You won’t want to miss this fun, informative and interactive way of increasing your hands-on therapeutic skills. Saturday, May 10th: Trigger Point Therapy: Pelvic Floor 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM with Jason Garcia Cost: $110 We can all relate to someone with a sore back because we’ve probably had one ourselves. This workshop will focus on the muscles of the pelvic floor which can be responsible for low back and sciatic pain. Trigger Point techniques for core muscles like the iliopsoas, QL, gluteals, iliolumbar erector spinae and deep six muscles will demonstrated and practiced. The SI (Sacroiliac) joint will also be discussed and palpated in order to understand the structural dynamics of the pelvis. Your new understanding of the pelvis and low back will allow you to make your sessions more efficient and effective. |
