    Wow this video was awesome! Very informative. Your hands loom so strong. I have this exact pain currently. I have been self massaging and stretching but can't get a good release. I will probably schedule an appointment for a deep tissue massage. This video helped me to know what area specifically to address.

    Definitely love to see the techniques! Just fitting al of these into an hour massage is a bit challenging. I’d love to see you do a video on how you incorporate a full body massage with specific focus on upper body/lower body. Maybe you do and I haven’t see the video yet.

      Inform your clients that in order to address their specific areas of concern that means you'll need to spend less time on the rest of the body.
      Ask them if they want to just focus on the upper half or lower half - depending on where their complaints are.
      Most of mine still choose a full body with focus on 1-2 areas. It is challenging because sometimes they won't see the best results with so many focus areas and they only come in monthly or even less frequently.
      Anyway, you can do a full body with focus areas. I would recommend to have your client pick 1-2 areas of focus (depending on complexity) and just Shorten the time allotted for the rest of the body parts. OR do a 90 minute massage 😁

    Thank you so much. I just did these moves on a client who is a barber and was experiencing debilitating pain and we in a previous session had determined the levator scapula was a main factor in the pain. He is doing so much better now. Thanks again :)
