Description:
This course presents a seated massage based on the oriental energy system. Students are introduced to an easy Qi Gong practice to associate with the concept of Ki (Chi). Class is primarily practical but location of specific acupuncture lines and points are covered, as well as indications, contraindications and body dynamics. Students learn a 20-30 minute pattern for massage of head, neck, back, hips, arms and hands with the client seated in a massage chair or on a stool. Stretches of neck, shoulders and back are included in the pattern. By the end of the course, students are able to correlate with the concept of Ki, recognize some basic Acupuncture points in the upper body, perform a 20-30 minute routine of Japanese Chair Massage and demonstrate good body dynamics.
