Part 2 – Lower Back and Pelvis
Part 3 – Neck and Shoulders
Part 4 – Legs including Hip, Knees and Feet

About Part 1

The foundation course in Advanced Massage has been designed to offer a number of key elements which will dynamically improve your work:

  • Looking at ranges of motion of the client
  • Assessing postures. Pelvic-leg imbalance; scoliosis; kyphosis; lordosis; neck imbalances
  • How we use our bodies as therapists – looking at postures as we carry out massage
  • How to use our hands and fingers more effectively and without straining them
  • Using forearms and elbows with greater efficiency
  • Placing our client in the best positions to receive treatment
  • There will be an introduction to Muscle Energy Techniques (MET), Neuromuscular Techniques (NMT), Soft Tissue Release (STR) and Proprioceptor Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF).
  • Taught by Michael Gibbons, this will be a dynamic, interactive and inspiring day.

Michael Gibbons initially qualified as a massage therapist in 1991 and following further massage training now works using many styles: Sports, Relaxation, Remedial, and Thai Yoga Massage. In 1996 he studied at the McTimoney College of Chiropractic in Abingdon, Oxford gaining a Diploma in 1999 and now practices Classical Manipulation inspired by the work of John McTimoney. He is also qualified in Biodynamic Cranio-Sacral therapy. Michael will draw on his skills he has learned over the last 18 years in this field and will teach a fusion of all these disciplines and influences.
