Description
Learn how to release sensitive, guarded, and painful tissue using a gentle approach based on precise positioning and nervous system feedback.
This online video course teaches Positional Release, a method that places the body in a position of ease rather than stretching or forcing restricted tissue. You will learn how to identify areas of tension, find the appropriate release position, and use a monitoring point to guide the tissue toward relaxation.
Begin with the neurological principles behind the work and a general postural evaluation, then progress through detailed techniques for the neck, shoulders, arms, hands, thoracic spine, lumbar region, pelvis, sacrum, knees, legs, and ankles.
The course includes focused assessment and treatment approaches for shoulder restrictions, psoas dysfunction, pelvic imbalance, short and long leg patterns, sacral tension, hamstring strain, Achilles tendon problems, and other common areas of musculoskeletal dysfunction.
You will also learn how to combine Positional Release with your existing massage work through three real-time treatment routines, making it easier to integrate the technique into complete sessions.
Designed for massage therapists and bodyworkers who want a gentle, precise, and clinically useful approach for clients with chronic tension, postural strain, hypersensitive tissue, or neuromuscular guarding.
