Our Deep Tissue Massage class at Life Time Academy equips therapists with advanced techniques and insights to elevate their practice. Throughout the course, therapists will master the application of Deep Tissue Massage, ensuring both client and therapist safety. With our innovative “No Thumbs” approach, therapists will discover hand-saving techniques while effectively addressing various muscle groups such as tibialis anterior/posterior, arm flexors, quadriceps, hamstrings, and rhomboids. Additionally, therapists will learn fresh approaches to treating common conditions like headaches, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, shin splints, and lower back pain. Emphasis is placed on Core Body Mechanics and Ergonomics in both standing and seated positions, promoting career longevity. Furthermore, therapists will enhance their ability to interpret non-verbal cues from clients, leading to improved communication and session outcomes. This comprehensive course empowers therapists to deliver exceptional Deep Tissue Massage therapy while prioritizing client well-being and therapist health.
