Summary:
Seated massage can be applied through clothing and so is particularly adapted to the workplace. It is also uniquely supportive for treating desk bound and wheelchair bound clients. All of the techniques learnt on the course can be added to an Indian Head Massage treatment or any other treatment protocol.
Overview
This Sitting-Back Massage Course will enable therapists to take their work into the workplace
or the client's home. Seated massage is especially useful for treating clients with stress related
problems and for our elderly, anxious and pregnant clients who are not comfortable laying down.
Sitting-Back Massage uses a broad selection of techniques that reduce tension in the back, neck and shoulders; thus providing deep relaxation, promoting circulation and muscle stimulation.
This Massage has also become a popular way to introduce the general public to the
benefits of professional massage.
