Product Description
Synopsis
For entry-level to intermediate-level courses in Massage Theory and Practice and Massage Therapy. This comprehensive text covers the principles and techniques of massage along with the implementation of therapeutic skills to practice. It focuses on the history and origin of massage, its effects, the science and art of massage, the contraindications and preparation for the client. Also addressed are the basic massage strokes and their uses as well as other contemporary therapeutic massage approaches. It covers the application of knowledge to the clients' needs, self-care for the therapist and client, and specific treatments, along with case studies, resource information, and routines. Going well beyond the basic Swedish massage, the text emphasizes a holistic approach to body, mind, emotions, and spirit, and the ability to apply learned techniques to the needs of the workplace.
