Crazy Good Neck Work - Version II

It's a well-known fact that massage therapists who can perform outstanding neck work are far and few between and there is an amazing market out there for therapists who can fill this gap. The purpose of this course is to make you a star performer in this arena.

The Crazy Good II sequence begins with specific work to free the individual vertebrae and then moves on to address muscular imbalance and dysfunction in the anterior neck using a combination of manual therapy, positional release and neuromuscular therapy techniques. Additional finishing moves for the posterior neck and a final whole-neck opening technique using myofascial unwinding addresses any remaining holding patterns to cap off a stellar neck sequence that will delight your clients and keep them coming back for more.

After taking this class you will discover what many of the top massage professionals know, that if you can do world-class neck work the world will beat a path to your table.
