 Swedish Massage |
| This course provides you with basic theory and principles of performing Swedish relaxation and seated massage including the five basic strokes (effleurage, pétrissage, friction, vibration, and tapotement). This course also discusses the sequence of strokes, typically beginning with broad general strokes, transitioning to more detail specific strokes to address problem areas, and finishing with broad connecting strokes. You will learn techniques to improve circulation and tissue elasticity while reducing muscle tone and creating a parasympathetic response. In addition, you will explore skills of applying oil or lotion with light to medium pressure. Once finished, you will be able to perform a professional Swedish massage and a 30-minute chair massage onto each other and onto the instructor. |
