Asthma and Massage: How to Promote Better
Breathing |
|
|
June 30, 2013
(Sunday 9:00 am - 4:00 pm). |
|
|
CEUs 6 = $150 ($170
after May 29th). Taught by Anthony Guglielmo. |
|
|
|
|
|
Nearly 25 million
Americans suffer from asthma (over 8% of
adults, over 9% of children), and 60% of
asthma cases are “allergic-asthma.” The
prevalence of asthma has been increasing
since the early 1980s across all age, sex
and racial groups.
Asthma is characterized by inflammation of
the air passages resulting in the temporary
narrowing of the airways that transport air
from the nose and mouth to the lungs. Asthma
symptoms can be caused by allergens or
irritants that are inhaled into the lungs,
resulting in inflamed, clogged and
constricted airways. Symptoms include
difficulty breathing, wheezing, coughing and
tightness in the chest. In severe cases,
asthma can be deadly.
Although there is no cure for asthma, asthma
can be managed with proper prevention and
treatment.
Massage Therapy can be a beneficial aid in
the care of asthma and other breathing
conditions. As the muscles of respiration
become fatigued and locked up from constant
coughing, wheezing and straining to increase
intake volume, in many cases the very same
muscles become frozen and restricted, even
forming adhesions which will limit the
natural movement necessary for normal
inhalation and exhalation.
When this occurs the ability to breath is
reduced, adding to and increasing the
problems that asthma inflicts upon its
sufferers.
By relaxing the fatigued muscles, releasing
the adhesions and allowing the muscles of
respiration to function at their full
capacity, a person can breathe with less
stress allowing the body to deal with the
condition better.
This class helps us to understand what
asthma really is, what many of the causes
are and some of the medication treatments
being used to manage asthma. We’ll also
learn what muscles are involved and how we
can assist in the release of these muscles
through massage, stretches, acupressure
points and reflexology points that deal with
breathing.
**Please bring a
sheet, towel, and oils, lotion, or cream. |

We know
that the body holds tension and repressed
emotions. However, many of us do not know
what specific tissues are responsible for
this. In this workshop, you will learn how
to identify, manipulate and release myofascial tissue which holds chronic,
painful and exhausting stress and tension.
By the end of this workshop, you will know
how to release this unwanted stress in the
chest, neck, shoulders, hands and be able to
extend this knowledge to other parts of the
body. In addition, you will gain an
understanding of the relationship between
posture and emotional attitudes and how
constricted tissue leads to creating and
enforcing emotional negativity.
At the end
of this workshop, your neck and shoulders
will be relaxed. You will breath more
deeply, with less effort. |

Trager® Introductory Workshop |
|
|
August 11, 2013
(Sunday 10:00 am - 6:00 pm) |
|
|
7 CEUs = $125 ($145
after July 12). Taught by Judy Rose
Seibert, Trager®
practitioner for 17 years, LMT, tutor and
workshop leader.
www.tragerbyjudyrose.com |
|
|
|
|
|
How could your work with clients be easier
and more playful? Come learn the
relaxing, rythmic movements of the Trager®
Approach that invite both you and your
client to go deeper into relaxation during
the session. During this workshop you
will: *learn the principles of the
Trager® Approach; *explore hands-on Trager
tablework, supine and prone, using body
mechanics that create the greatest ease for
the practitioner; *discover Trager
Mentastics - gentle playful movements which
increase body awareness, explore ease and
comfort in movement and help reduce or
eliminate pain, fatigue and tension.
Trager is an experiential approach to
movement education and mind/body
integration. It uses both tablework
and self-directed movement exploration to
influence the unconscious mind. Trager
uses the natural rhythms of the body's
weight and structure to help rediscover
ease, comfort, freedom from restriction and
fluidity of function.
During the tablework portion of a Trager
session, each part of the body gets gently
rocked like a baby. These movements
stay within what feels safe and pleasant for
the client, enabling the mind to let go of
habitual muscle holding patterns, resulting
in long-lasting change. When you give
a session, you are also receiving the
rocking movements yourself! Body mechanics
for the practitioner are an integral and
valuable part of this class - you will learn
to work with greater ease and alignment. |

Self-Care
Yoga for the Massage Therapist |
|
|
October 5, 2013 (Saturday 10:00 am to
2:00 pm) |
|
|
4 CEUs = $80 ($90
after September 5). Taught by Denise
Anthony |
|
|
|
|
|
Practicing and living
yoga can profoundly enhance your massage
practice. This self-care practice
strengthens muscles, tendons and joints,
increases flexibility, improves energy and
stamina, alleviates pain, and prevents
injuries. Yoga increases breath
capacity and calms the body, mind and
spirit, therefore allowing the therapist to
be more present and available for massage
patients. It is a wonderful way to
energize yourself and your massage practice. |
|
|
|
|
|
This
class is an introduction to Patanjali's 8
Limbs of Yoga. Patanjali is sage and
the author of The Yoga Sutras and he
used an eight limbed tree as a metaphor for
the practice. Most people think of
yoga as a physical practice but that is only
one aspect of the yoga science. The
aim of this yoga practice is to release the
Self from Attachments. First you learn
to control your actions and then you can
begin to steady your body and your breath.
Then you will learn to quiet the mind . .
.once the mind is still you can reach
meditation which leads to Samadhi or bliss. |
|
|
|
|
|
In
addition to theory you will learn practical
exercises, breath work, concentration and
meditation techniques that you can easily do
at home or at work. The entire
workshop is directed toward the physical and
energetic rejuvenation of the massage
therapist.
** What to bring:
Yoga mat, meditation pillow and a small
blanket (optional) |

Kansa Vatki (KV) Foot Massage has been
practiced in India for centuries, following
the tried and trusted Ayurvedic tradition.
At the heart of the treatment is the small,
3 metal bowl which helps to rebalance the
tridosha of Vata, Pitta and Kapha. The
use of clarified butter or ghee is
essential. This treatment involves
working on the feet and lower limbs, with
particular emphasis on marma (ayurvedic
pressure) points, Kansa Vatki movements are
simple yet effective massage techniques. A
soothing session helps to draw out excess
heat, leaving the entire body cool,
refreshed and relaxed. This treatment
is good for everyone and ideal for all those
who spend long hours on their feet.
Some of the many benefits
-
Relaxes tired feet
-
Improves blood and lymphatic circulation
-
Enhances lower limb mobility
-
Restores levels of Prana (energy)
-
Promotes sound sleep
-
Relieves eyestrain from prolonged computer
use

Tension can build up within our facial
muscles from the pressures of everyday life
without us realizing it. It can be easy for
certain thoughts and emotions to become
habitual, locking themselves into
expressions on our faces - sometimes over a
duration of a whole lifetime. Under such
conditions muscles can actually “dry up” and
contract, inhibiting freedom of expression.
This can encourage aging and the formation
of wrinkles as the face loses its muscle
tone and elasticity and begins to sag.
Indian Face Massage (Facial rejuvenation) is
a natural facelift through massage,
designed to be a gentle non-invasive
approach to looking younger. The technique
works primarily by freeing constrictions
both within the facial muscles and in the
connective tissue.
Through gentle massage of the face, we can
help to delay the aging process. This is
achieved by using simple massage techniques
and energy balancing, thereby giving the
facial muscles a lift and a new lease on
life.
This is a precise healthcare modality,
working the face systematically, releasing
deep-seated tensions, freeing layers of
muscle and connective tissue so that there
is space for the muscles to relax,
encouraging an opening so that micro
circulation and elimination can begin again
and the tissues can glide smoothly over the
deeper layers of muscle and bone. Although
it is difficult to stave off the aging
process, we can do much to extend the
appearance of youth and beauty by using
simple, natural and effective massage
techniques and energy balancing to take care
of the assets we possess. |
