Advanced Massage for Clinical Practice
(300
hour program)
|
Clinical massage involves the manipulation of soft tissues to
resolve acute and chronic pain and dysfunction. Clinical massage
also stimulates and supports the therapist’s creativity and
desire to be a truly effective healer, allowing the therapist to
focus on the individual’s needs.
At Advanced Holistic Healing Arts,
we have designed an advanced program that is targeted, comprehensive,
and highly valuable. Our program, Advanced Massage for Clinical Practice,
is designed to provide the background |
and skills to work confidently with clients who are seeking help to reduce pain and movement restrictions.
The tools learned in this program are valuable tools for therapists
working with clients who have injuries from chronic illness, accidents,
or sports, and those working with athletes and “weekend warriors” to
prevent injury and achieve peak performance. The Advanced Massage for
Clinical Practice program teaches therapists to assess, treat, and
evaluate clients. It also provides the tools and skills for clinical
support and business success. |

Negative Pressure Massage with Massage Cups Level I

hours) |
Massage cupping, based on an ancient technique, is
a modified version of the common practice of cupping therapy. By
creating suction and negative pressure while manipulating the soft
tissue, massage cupping can release rigid soft tissue, loosen adhesions
and lift connective tissue, bringing blood flow to skin and muscles. This
technique can be used to assist a range of modalities from lymphatic
drainage to deep tissue release. This class will introduce
the participant to the theory and actions of massage cupping, the
tools used to perform the technique and the basics of using the tools
safely and effectively. (Approved for Texas CE’s) |

Biomagnetic Practices for Massage Therapists
and Other Professionals
