This private class will introduce basic therapeutic massage concepts and how to adapt professional techniques to be used at home. The 90-minute class will include a demo of a short massage protocol and time for each partner to practice on the other with the instructor's guidance.
The focus will be on your specific areas of concern. You'll learn to avoid common mistakes and use body mechanics to safely apply pressure using hands, thumbs, and elbows - without hurting yourself.
You can choose a clothed massage sequence on a mat on the floor on a massage table. Both options require professional respect for your LMT. If you choose table massage, the therapist will leave the room while you disrobe and maintain standard therapeutic massage draping protocols.
These classes are a safe environment to learn massage. Couples can be any pair of people, so yes--you're welcome to bring a friend or family member. All are welcome in this healing space.
