"I have been using hands free in around 40% of treatments - even on my petite clients.

Ever so grateful that I found your course & for what it is doing for my treatments, my clients & how it's helping my own body!" - Happy learner

Wooohoooo, locked and loaded for session 3 of our Advanced Training.
In this session, we use all the ground work we've done in to go deeper. We learn how to use the elbow (and the 'tools' around it) together with great bodyuse to support the work to deliver skilful and sensitive™ use of the elbow to get just the right pressure for the client, without straining the practitioner's body! 🤩

Think it’s all about the elbow? Think again! We’re all about full-body alignment for power, precision, and longevity.
