Focus on Fascia II-III and all condition-specific courses.Course description:
This course will introduce students to the concepts and definitions of Myofascial Release (MFR). Students will receive training in body mechanics and truly learn how to hold MFR techniques without stressing their body, reaching into the deeper layers of fascia. Students will learn three “staples” of MFR: arm pulls, leg pulls, and cross-handed techniques; as well as basic sets of techniques for the pelvic, shoulder and cervical areas, including both a gentle and direct psoas release. They will learn how to apply these basic MFR techniques to relieve both the client’s complaints and the underlying structural imbalance, and be able to start full body MFR sessions immediately upon completion of this class. Topics will also include boundary setting with clients, marketing and how to transition and/or develop your practice.
This class is now the prerequisite for all other Focus on Fascia classes.Required materials:
Set of twin sheets
Shorts
Tank-type top for women
Water
Do not wear body lotions
