Certification Description:
With The Body Journey Massage Experience®, you’ll learn how to create an immersive auditory and kin-esthetic transformational massage for your clients each time. You’ll be taught how to seamlessly blend sound and energy work with the sacred art of touch into a masterpiece that takes people on a deep inward journey. Discover how massage can transcend mere muscle manipulation, helping to transport individuals into a state of mental relaxation. When the mind lets go, the chi in the body can flow. When the chi flows, all of the systems in the body function better which leaves the client feeling more fully alive!
Components:
–Advanced Massage Techniques that Weave Eastern and Western Modalities Together for an Optimum Client Experience
Gain experience combining Eastern and Western modalities to provide long-lasting pain relief while creating an extraordinary client experience. Students will receive training in the Chinese meridian system, potent acupressure points, reflexology, and how to apply dynamic over and under enveloping strokes that clear blocks in the meridians, allowing the client’s chi to flow from head to toe.
–The Completion Technique
Most therapists release their touch before reaching the fingers and toes. Yet, the extremities are where the Chinese meridians end, and the energy body extends even further. By employing the Completion Technique to guide the chi all the way out, therapists can enhance their treatment’s effectiveness and lasting impact. This intentional approach feels exceptionally nurturing and communicates a sense of added care to the client.
As this is hands on, please bring your own massage table, bolsters (or pillow) for foot/leg support should you need it. Each person should bring table linens and your own cream or oil.
