TRAGER PRINCIPLES WITH RESISTANCE AND RELEASE WORK FOR THE NECK AND SHOULDER
with Deane Juhan
November 9-10th @ 9:00 am – 6:00 pm
BodyMechanics Massage School. Vancouver, WA
Functionally, we are really one muscle that is divided up by the connective tissue structures into different compartments in order to provide specifi
c vectors of motion and coordinated groups of motor units. We are not robots with hinges, cables and pulleys, but shape-changers, and any gesture involves the participation of wide-spread muscular synergies.
Resistance/Release work is an interactive approach between therapist and client designed to re-coordinate their musculature as a whole and to train more efficient and effective recruitment of muscular contraction and lengthening involved in any position or movement, from feet to head and from sleeve to core. The result is dramatically improved muscular coordination, adding both ease and strength to all of our activities.
