A Gentle Approach To Trigger Point Work
Hands On Workshops
It is my intent to present another perspective in treating muscular pain with classes small enough for individualized attention, not only from me but from my incredible team of assistants. In these courses, you will learn how to locate and release neuromuscular trigger points specific to the muscles of each section, providing a pathway to longer lasting relief for your clients.
Each course starts with an hour lecture, followed by guided training and practice.
Participants should bring a massage table, linens, and lubricants. This work does not require a lot of lubricant, and some parts of it none at all.
While this work can be done with clothed clients, it is preferable to learn on skin in order to implement effective fascial work and in locating and releasing the trigger points. If you are more comfortable with clothed work, please wear some type of workout clothing.

Upper Torso
There are musculoskeletal disorders from “a catch in the side” and strains to movement disorders such as cerebral palsy that can activate neuromuscular trigger points in the upper body. Not only does this course focus on the muscles in the upper body, but includes all erector spinae, rectus abdominis, and scalene work due to the referral pain in the upper torso from their trigger points.
