How do you loosen the painfully tight muscles of your ultra flexible clients? I often find releasing them a challenge in adaptability.

I’ve been on vacation…I took a deliberate ten-day break from the Internet and from all the politics of massage while I was enjoying my annual sojourn in Ireland. I didn’t visit any Internet cafes. I didn’t read the paper and I didn’t watch the news. I left my cell phone at home, too. It was quite refreshing and restorative to be unplugged for that period of time, but now it’s back to the grind.

      Over the years, many of the MTs I've traded with have moved out of town or retired. Before I knew it, I was down to one and although I've made many professional friendships online, neglected to put in the effort to connect with others locally. I am grateful for the remaining MT in my network, but in my experience receiving regular massage works best when you have several MTs to call upon. Can you imagine what the…

SMRT: Spontaneous Muscle Release Technique

Instructor: Dawn Lewis

Spontaneous Muscle Release Technique is a series of gentle contractions that allow therapists to release muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue. This allows natural realignment of joints, the painless resolution of trigger points, and the removal of adhesions, which restores and enhances homeostasis of the area being worked.

Any time one of the major organizations in the massage field tries to fire up a project that will “advance the profession”, I get awfully suspicious. When a group of them get together to do something on the big scale, I go on full nuclear alert. That’s the case right now with a dubious education standards project introduced by ABMP in September 2011 at the Leadership Summit in St. Louis, which I detailed in my previous post, Behind Closed Doors.

As the title of that blog suggests,…
