I have been having chronic aches and stiffness in my shoulders and neck and
have been working with a physical therapist on some hip pains as well. My neck
and shoulders felt great after the workshop; much more relaxed (which I have
learned also helps improve my hip health). Having been going to massage school
for the last few months, I really enjoyed that Samantha included some education
about human anatomy and the self-posture checks into the workshop. It really
helps to be able to gauge any improvements I’m making with my posture over
time. The self-massage techniques were SO helpful, and I’ve always gotten great
benefits from any Yoga exercises I’ve done in the past. So, it was awesome that
they were included in this routine as well. I would have to say that there wasn’t a
single segment of this routine that I didn’t find very helpful. I am incorporating all
of it into the set of exercises I was given by my physical therapist to do at home.
Thank you, again, for offering this class. I believe it will really help to prevent
injuries in my transition from a desk job to a much more physical career as a
massage therapist. -Maria
