Swedish/Western Massage
Swedish/Western Massage Techniques
We offer a series of Western style classes & clinics at East-West School.
Integrated instruction in Swedish and other Western approaches to bodywork, including proper body mechanics, and indications and contraindications for massage. Various strokes are taught including effleurage, petrissage, and tapotement along with their proper usage throughout the body.
Western style clinics will also offer you more practice in this area. We suggest all students practice at home in addition to practicing these techniques at school.
Please bring sheets and oil/lotions to this class.
