Description
Are you tired of doing the same old routine your clients' backs?The back is a massive territory that can be related to all kind of issues our clients' show up with on our tables. In most basic massage instruction, a routine or a small handful of techniques are taught to address the back. After a while, most bodyworkers realize that these routines and techniques aren't quite enough to sustain their practice and they are left looking where to go next to learn how to help their clients. If this is you, you're in the right place!The Morales Method® has a unique approach to help you curate your sessions based on your client's needs!By utilizing a foundational concept in the Morales Method®, Directional Resistance, each session can be unique as you respond to the tensional patterns you find in your clients' tissue with this advanced palpation technique presented in this course.
