Intermediate Thai Massage - Working with Structural Injuries @ Mckinnon Institute of Bodywork Therapy
Tue/Thurs, 4 Weeks (32 hours), 9am - 1pm, May 12 - June 04, 2015 - $610
This class builds upon the instruction in Thai I which is an introduction to the basic forms, principles and techniques of Thai Massage in each of the primary positions: Supine, Prone, Side-Lying & Seated. In Thai II we continue to learn new techniques but now the emphasis shifts to addressing issues and injuries relating to common structural ailments such as sciatica, low back pain, frozen shoulder etc. After taking this course, students will be better prepared to apply their knowledge of Thai Yoga bodywork towards helping clients coping with injuries and pain.
Advanced Thai Massage - Caring for Emotional Injuries @ Mckinnon Institute of Bodywork Therapy
Tue/Thurs, 4 Weeks (32 hours), 9am - 1pm, Jun 16 - July 09, 2015 - $610
In Thai I we were introduced to the basic elements & principles of Thai Massage. In Thai II we learned to adapt these techniques to address common structural injuries. In Thai III we explore the principles of Ayurvedic medicine, one of the fundamental roots of the Thai tradition and see how they can be applied to our bodywork practice. We start by learning about the seven major personality types central to Ayurvedic diagnosis. Then we determine what form of Thai bodywork is best suited to each of these personality types and how to design a sequence to benefit each type. Finally, we examine the five Vayus (subtle energies) as well as twelve Marma (energetic points) to see how they can be integrated to help us work at a deeper level.
