  • True sciatica sucks. There is no denying it. But there are also a lot of soft tissue dysfunctions that can disguise themselves as sciatica. More often than not, this is the case. What are they? Where do they hide? Good question.

    Yes! online CEUS. The classes or series I would be interested in include: Functional Anatomy, Neuromuscular Facilitation, Active Engagement Techniques, myofascial release, draping for some of these techniques to incorporate them into a relaxation massage when client may not be clothed. Also, you should come back and visit Colorado and do them in person sometime, such as at the AMTA or AMBP conferences. :)

With regards to CE classes, etc., I would love to find out more regarding orthopedic massage (assessment/testing and protocols for different common soft tissue dysfunction) as well as massage for things like hospice care, etc.
    Thank you again for all your effort with providing a platform for practitioners, students and general public to benefit from! Your work is amazing! May you have blessings in all you do! :)

      @taoist32 3 года назад +2

      You can get a correct diagnosis first. You may not have sciatica. But if you do, you can do some self massage as well. Use a a tennis ball or racquetball. You can lie down on your back. Place the ball right under the hip. Gently move around your hip area. You will feel pressure, pain, and/or soreness. Try this several times until you feel it releasing. Then move down the leg into the hamstrings, calf, then the bottom of the foot.

    Great video. I’d love for you to work on my sciatic nerve. I can remember when I finally figured out what the problem was. That same year I went to The Body Human exhibit and looked for the model with all the nerves exposed. When I saw the size of it I was not surprised. It looked like a huge cable cord. No wonder it’s so hard to wrestle into submission.

I work with mostly with people who have been in car accidents, most of whom have never had any kind of massage before. So, they are guarded not only because of the physical trauma of the car accident, but also because they are nervous about getting a massage. How do you educate clients who have very little or no awareness of what’s happening in their body?
