Thumbs Free Massage of the Back, Neck, and Shoulders

Class Description:
Thumbs hurt? Don’t worry, you won’t need them in this hands-on class. In fact, you may never need to use them in your practice again…

As tools, thumbs are just too small for the jobs to which we traditionally assign them. Taught by Kay Rynerson, LMT, RTT (Registered Thai Therapist), this hands-on class will give you the techniques you need to work on a client’s back, neck, and shoulders—all without your thumbs.

Drawn from many different traditions, this work is largely indebted to Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage, which employs your forearm. You will also use your fists, fingers, and elbows. You can work light, you can work deep, you can work in between, but in any case, you can have a long and lucrative career without ever injuring your thumbs.
