Product Description
This 3 Disc Series provides superb training for chair massage. Covered extensively, is chair set-up, adjustment, sanitation, hygiene, therapist-client communication, anatomy using trigger point drawings and muscles drawn on the body (AnatomyArt by Debra Brooks) plus a complete demonstration of the techniques to treat each muscle.
It also teaches PNF and Active Isolated Stretching, bodymechanics and thumb techniques. These techniques can be applied generally for relaxation and stress reduction, or specifically to improve circulation, increase range of motion, reduce pain and help relieve common complaints. These are the methods you need to know to better serve your patients and to stand out from the crowd of chair therapists.
V1 covers chair operation, sanitation procedures, patient communication, therapist bodymechanics PLUS anatomy, trigger points, common complaints and detailed treatment of quadratus-lumborum, erector spinae, rhomboids, upper and mid-trapezius, suboccipitals, brachioradialis, closure techniques and PNF stretching. V2 covers Active Isolated Stretching for the neck and shoulders; anatomy, trigger points, common complaints and detailed treatment of deltoid, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres major and minor, latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major and minor, subscapularis, PLUS basic posture analysis, how the shoulder affects the arm and wrist, and more. V3 covers the anatomy, trigger points, common complaints and detailed treatment of the entire forearm from elbow to fingers. There is a detailed discussion of carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow and golfers elbow PLUS an excellent treatment demonstration for most hand complaints.
Taught by Ralph Stephens, a renown leader in medical, sports and chair massage education, this DVD series covers the entire upper body, and was the first of its kind to adapt specific therapeutic massage techniques from Sports Massage, NMT and Active Isolated Stretching to the seated position.

 English and German review: learn from one the best! April 4, 2008

After purchasing the book 'Therapeutic Chair Massage', I decided to order the DVD set 'Seated Therapeutic Massage' as well, because there is nothing better than techniques actually seeing being performed after reading the book. For all massage therapists who cannot physically attend a Ralph R. Stephens seminar or workshop, this set of 3 DVDs is definitely one of the best investments they can make. Very comprehensive material, professional teacher! It's a pity we don't have such great video material in german. And here is a further insider's tip for dedicated massage therapists: 'Deep Tissue Massage and Myofascial Release: A Video Guide to Techniques' by Art Riggs.
Nachdem ich das, leider nur auf Englisch verfügbare Buch 'Therapeutic Chair Massage' gekauft und gelesen hatte, bestellte ich nachträglich die DVD Serie 'Seated Therapeutic Massage' direkt in U.S.A. Es gibt bekanntlich nichts besseres als 'live' dabei zu sein, auch wenn das Buch bereits eine Fülle an Informationen bietet. Meine Empfehlung an alle Massage Therapeuten, die nicht persönlich an Seminare oder Workshops eines Experten wie Ralph R. Stephens teilnehmen können: bestellen Sie unbedingt diese Videos. Es ist mit Sicherheit eine der besten Investitionen in Ihrer Weiterbildung, die Sie je getätigt haben! Einziger Wermutstropfen: englisch sollte man schon beherrschen und beim Empfang der Ware, schlägt der Zoll erbarmungslos zu (Zoll und Einfuhrsteuer)! Hier ist noch ein weiterer Geheimtipp: 'Deep Tissue Massage and Myofascial Release: A Video Guide to Techniques' by Art Riggs.
