The Passive Stretch – Table Thai Massage and More
Friday, April 23 and Saturday April 24, 2010 16 CE Hours
You will learn passive stretches for every part of the client’s body in the supine, side- lying and
prone positions on the massage table. These stretches, which I’ve collected and field-tested
since 1988, are adapted from many diverse modalities, including Traditional Massage of
Thailand, which I have taught and practiced for many years. Although Thai massage is
traditionally done on a mat on the floor with the recipient fully clothed, many of the moves, with
adaptations, can be performed on a massage table.
These stretches can be done with the client awake or sound asleep, draped, or fully clothed.
You will learn specific treatment modalities for plantar fasciitis and carpal tunnel syndrome. We
will explore treatments for low back pain and range-of-motion issues for the neck, shoulders
and hips. You will learn techniques including the 30 Second Stretch, Fascial Release, and the
Salt Water Taffy Method and their various applications.
