Thai Bodywork Stretching for Treatment: Lanna Medicine
Monday, March 9 and Tuesday, March 10
10 AM - 5 PM
12 CEs
The Iron Bird Way in Brunswick, Maine
Beyond the sequenced, non-specific stretching taught in basic Thai Massage classes, this class will look at when stretching is indicated and contraindicated for specific individuals and how to take those favorite techniques from flashy to effective, from fun but vague to specific and helpful.
Based in the rarely shared extensive catalog of therapeutic stretches preserved in the Lanna Kingdom of Northern Thailand, this class will take the techniques Thai Massage is best known for into the realm of treatment, addressing problems of posture, mobility and pain through a holistic structural lens of the body and person.
This class will cover:
indications and contraindications for stretching the upper body
assessment skills to use before, during and after treatment sessions
effective body mechanics for practitioners and safe client positioning
session design
clinical insights from 15 years of consistent treatment of real-world client conditions
Class is limited to 6 participants with a minimum of 4 to ensure a beneficial learning experience for all.
