Thai on the Table with Kelly Scott
November 14-15, 2020
Saturday & Sunday, 9:00am-5:30pm
15 CEs for LMTs
This is an innovative class incorporating Thai yoga for therapists working on the massage table. Content will include a full body Thai yoga treatment, safe effective stretching techniques, and improved body mechanics for practitioners. We will also observe foundational principals of yoga elements applied in Thai massage. This course is perfect for the traditionally trained therapist looking to refresh and deepen their work with less strain on your hands and wrists.
Benefits of Thai on The Table:
- You do not have to use linens, oils and no one needs to undress. For sanitation purposes, it is easy to wipe everything down.
- The principles and techniques in this course is a combination of Thai (compression & stretching) and Osteopathy principles which allows deeper access in the body without pain or force driven techniques. I believe this to be one of the finest courses and can easily be done on a mat on the floor, if this is your preference.
- Table Thai is the bridge of Eastern and Western methodologies that helps the therapist in their body mechanics for longevity of the profession.
- A new service offered to your menu of services or a stand alone service that makes you unique!
1) You choose a partner (preferably another massage therapist) to work with for the duration of the course. This will assimilate a hands on experience. Submit the name of your partner you have chosen to work with prior to the course date. You may have more than one throughout the weekend.
