Muscle-Specific Deep Tissue Techniques for the Posterior, Lateral and Anterior Neck @ National Holistic Institute- Redding Campus
Jun 28 @ 9:00 am – 6:00 pm

Session Description
8.0 CE’S

The neck is a strong, vulnerable and complex structure. It is the most movable part of the spine, and yet is strong enough to balance and support the head (10-11 pounds), even with chronically poor posture. Skillful deep tissue work in this area is not about brute force; it’s about precision and strategy, informed by knowledge of the anatomical structures. It’s rare to find massage therapists who really know how to massage the neck in a precise, specific way– especially around the small muscular attachments to the transverse processes–even though this is often where the muscles are most frayed and/or inflamed.
