Too many massage therapists think that deep tissue is just about pushing harder or just doing intramuscular work.
This course goes much further and will give you concrete tools to work with your body and target the areas to be relieved.
As an integrative approach, this course will focus on the different tissue relaxation techniques including: myofascial stretching techniques and relaxation by active and passive mobilizations.
