Introduction to SRT
3 Continuing Education Hours
This is a 3 hour class to introduce you to the principles of SRT. It is taken directly from the SRT for the Shoulder, Arm, & Hand class. Since many massage therapists have symptoms in this area of their body, it is a great class to experience the relief of SRT from this one treatment. This class gives you an effective tool you can use in your practice.
In this hands-on class, you will learn to:
- Understand the activities which lead to symptoms including Taya's view of the true function of the muscles involved.
- Recognize the symptoms that patients present.
- Assess the ROM and structure of each area.
- Palpate the involuntary muscle contracture to locate the SRT Tender Points.
- Discern the possible positions to decrease the pain of the SRT Tender Points.
- Feel the release of the involuntary muscle contraction and the increase in ROM in the area.
- Participate as the therapist and as a patient to enhance your learning experience.
- Release fascia quickly using Taya's gentle tissue techniques.
- Use and integrate a new tool that will gently decrease pain and increase ROM.
- Understand the body from a new perspective and think "outside the box."
