Deep Tissue Massage 1
What do you do when your clients want deeper massage work than you feel confident and competent to give? This workshop will provide you with the necessary tools to develop your deep tissue massage skills.
Course contents:
• Your safety first: couch height, proper body positioning and posture,
• Working efficiently with reinforced fingers and thumbs,
• For deeper work – how to use forearms and elbows,
• Client positioning: prone, supine and side-lying work,
• How to use your couch for support to make your work easier,
• Focus will be on the back, neck, shoulders and gluteal area.
You will be taught how to work safely and effectively using all these different tools so that you can incorporate them into your own massage style. You will also be shown how varying your client’s positioning on the couch will allow you to access certain muscle groups better, making your treatments even more effective.
Throughout the day, you will be given 4 individual demonstrations of techniques and have plenty of opportunity between them to practice these techniques in your own time. It’s a fun and active day run in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
The day will be mostly practical, so please wear suitable clothing; loose trousers (no jeans), short or no sleeves, and NO nails. (We will be working deeply.) Suitable for massage therapists with basic Swedish massage skills.

You are one of the best tutors I’ve come across in this art (Deep Tissue Massage). SK
Every single technique that was shown, every single practice, the concept of the workshop was extremely useful for me. And it was a great learning environment and great learning experience too. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. DK
The Deep Tissue Massage course was fantastic. It changed the way I worked for the better, improving my confidence and my clients truly benefit. I am considering the STR workshop. SJ
