Massage 2 builds on the Swedish massage learned in Massage 1. Therapeutic techniques are introduced and worked with, such as joint mobilization, stillness, the use of elbows, knuckles and forearms, body rocking, oppositional stretch, resisted movement, side-lying massage, and the exploration of different energy modalities. Students will learn to tailor their massage approach to the needs of the client (session design and treatment planning). Students also begin to use SOAP charting, and client intake. Correct body dynamics the student developed in Massage 1 is also a focus. There is no required textbook. Massage 2 students have the option to sign up separately and join Practice Lab. Successful completion of Massage 1 is required before taking Massage 2.
