This class is uniquely designed for each student to learn new ways to use the skills they love.
Have you ever experienced frustration during a treatment when the client requests certain areas either be avoided or need specific attention? Does anything different from your usual routine throw you off your flow? Or maybe you are a seasoned therapist who simply has a desire to get back in touch with your intuitive mojo.
In this class, we explore how to address your clients’ issues using a unique combination of bodywork skills and intuition. Let’s take your skills to a new level, so you can address your clients’ issue and produce better results with ease.
Course work includes technique variations, how to adjust length of sessions and expectations.

Modify your massage skills to meet the demands of the largest-growing client demographics.
Adjusting our massage skills TO accommodate the elder client, while ensuring their comfort, is key to mastering the art of massage for the senior community.
Therapists will gain a basic understanding of common medical conditions affecting the boomer and geriatric populations, safe positioning practices on the table, proper body mechanics, and additional infection controls.
We also explore how to safely acclimate massage to elder clients in non-traditional settings. Therapists will learn to utilize beds, chairs, and recliners to provide safe and comfortable massage for seniors in any location. These practices are key to continue to serve our aging clients, as they may become unable to seek massage outside the home due to limited health, mobility, or lack of transportation.
