This is the number 2 reason I didn't use trigger point therapy in my spa even though I knew it was effective. I was too overwhelmed and there was no way I would remember all of the information so I gave up on it.

Now that you know what one is, this is why trying to stretch a trigger point without deactivating them is futile

Here are some easy tools and things that you can use to save your hands and thumbs

I want you to start thinking not only about your clients thats have pain and stiffness but also your sports people and athletes or even just people that are active in the gym. Trigger point deep tissue massage is also great for performance enhancing and injury prevention so you can market those benefits to your clients as well.

This is an important lecture because if you don't get this correct it can be difficult to use the techniques effectively

Here is a summary of how we will use our hands, soft fists and forearms so that the massage feels amazing not only for your client but also for you!

You can join our FB group and ask questions with thousands of students as well
