Continuing Education For Massage Therapists

Whether twisting the body, squatting down, or leaning over the table, Massage Therapists constantly torque their bodies. Massage also requires repeating the same essential movements. As a result, some muscles become overused and others weaken, causing an imbalance.

For Massage Therapists, muscle imbalances can affect the whole body. Stamina may decrease, and the potential for debilitating strains and pulls becomes much higher. This can affect your life and the longevity of your career.

Why Pilates?
Many Massage Therapists are turning to Pilates as an essential maintenance tool that keeps the body in balance and actually improves performance.

Pilates is based on movement from the center of the body, as are most maneuvers in massage. It strengthens the center of the body, also known as the core. Core strength can improve hip rotation, range of motion in the shoulders, and back stability, leading to increased stamina. It is also a full body exercise that works all muscles and is easy on the joints. The end result is a flexible, symmetrically muscled body that is strengthened from the inside out.

Private classes can be scheduled at your convenience, and credits accumulated as you need them.
