Marisa M Great ideas for self-release! I integrate bodywork with clients (I\'m a massage therapist) but I love how I can be more hands off using these techniques and help to empower clients to get their own release... especially when I go back to work after a pandemic... touch therapy will be interesting... Anyway thank you!

Nancy B I really enjoyed this class. I am going to incorporate this into my classes.

Kris B I have never taken another workshop that left me feeling so good! After doing the release work myself, my body settled right into proper alignment without effort. Can not wait to use these techniques with my clients!
