All set up for a client seeking a warm bamboo massage today. This is an effective way of working more deeply into the muscle tissue, without using traditional deep tissue techniques, which not everyone likes. The combination of warmth and long bamboo coverage allows muscles to relax and respond to the treatment.

This is a great course to introduce you to a Holistic approach of massage. You'll learn enough to give you an initial oveeview of what the full course will entail - or learn enough to be able to treat friends or family at home.

Shift Happens!

Our Somatic Trauma Therapy course is designed for body workers / counsellors of all kinds - and we have places on our next course (starting July). See the website for more info and to enquire about a place - https://www.holistic-school.com/somatic-trauma-therapy/

From the beginning of this course you will be able to use your skills to alleviate your clients’ distress. By teaching them to observe and track their physical sensations and with the use of simple exercises, you will help them to observe and tolerate the physical sensations that give rise to strong emotions. Quite quickly they can begin to feel calmer, safer and less overwhelmed. Shift will happen.

This is an incredible course and really changes the way you work. You'll incorporate it into every treatment once you've learned the techniques.

Do you want to work more effectively on chronic or acute pain and deep seated tension? Myofascial Release (MFR) is a remarkable way of working with complex pain.

Fascia is the three dimensional web of connective tissue that extends throughout our bodies, surrounding organs and muscle fibres. Physical or emotional trauma that makes us tense up causes our fascia to constrict, creating pain which may be longstanding and difficult to treat.

Find out how to release the fascia on our next course (three weekends) starting on 14th May 2022. For details - https://www.holistic-school.com/advanced-and-cpd-workshops/myofascial-release/
