Treatment Plans for Common Complaints and Injuries in a Bodywork Practice using Deep Tissue Massage and Myofascial Techniques

Even if your practice is primarily relaxation based, the reality is that almost all clients have some complaints about problems in their bodies or seek improvement with some issues.  Many therapists shy away from working with these conditions, primarily because of trepidation due to lack of knowledge about safe and effective techniques.  Some of the major conditions covered include:

  • Plantar fasciitis, ankle sprains, Achilles tendonitis, shin splints 

 

  • Knee pain from injury or recovery from surgery

  • Working safely with hip replacement

  • Minor back pain

  • Rotator cuff injuries and frozen shoulder  

  • Tennis/golfer’s elbow

  • Repetitive strain injuries to the arms

  • Thoracic outlet

  • TMJ

In addition to soft tissue skills, we also cover stretching, strengthening and other self-help suggestions for your clients, and the psychological issues that differentiate treatment of injuries from “regular” massage

Prerequisites: No specific except a bodywork certification, although highly suggested that students be familiar with structural massage issues and working with fascial strain patterns in a deep manner.
