Range of Motion

Prerequisites: FasciAshi Fundamentals or previous live beginner ashiatsu training.

California Therapists! If your city/county does not require or if you do not have CAMTC, you must submit the following in order to attend class: transcript from an accredited massage school, certificate of completion, and proof of professional liability insurance.

This class allows the Massage Therapist to stand on a massage table to maneuver clients’ limbs with their feet using the strong muscles of their legs and hips to deliver passive, active, and resisted ROM stretch therapy techniques.

We hold onto overhead bars and lean into our suspended support straps for balance and leverage as we lift, bend, and twist clients into stretches. This helps therapists to effortlessly maintain consistent pressure and counterbalance while providing deep point holds, or long fascial stretches.

We also compress or restrict clients compensating body parts down into a neutral alignment while creating various ranges of motion throughout all major joints in the body.

Therapists can observe movement patterns and queue the client into resisted actions to help build joint stability and encourage their interoceptive awareness during passive fascial stretching and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation.

This class reviews secure draping options while blending ROM into slow gliding, non-lubricated movements along the client’s skin. Can be adapted for more use of creme or provided with the client clothed. A full-body, 3-dimensional stretch sequence is taught.

ALERT: If you are currently pregnant, trying to get pregnant, have recently had breast/gluteal/calf enhancement surgery and/or some select cardiovascular-related surgeries within the last 9 months, we regret that you cannot attend the seminar. Please wait until 6 months after childbirth, and 9 months post major surgeries. Refer to the Contraindications list here for students.
