MT 201 — Therapeutic Massage II
Building on the foundation of the first semester, students will enhance their palpation skills by moving deeper into the tissues, gain greater understanding of the specific musculature and recognize various soft tissue dysfunctions. Basic assessment procedures and the ability to locate trigger points prepare students to develop a treatment plan for clients with chronic pain and/or address client s special needs. Students will learn to adapt their massage protocols to meet the needs of pregnant mothers and other special populations.
