Massage for Postural Dysfunction and Upper Back Pain
One-day practical workshop with a ready-to-use treatment protocol.
Rounded shoulders, postural kyphosis, stiffness in the upper back, rapid fatigue, and discomfort between the shoulder blades are common consequences of prolonged sitting and a sedentary lifestyle.
Over time, the position of the thoracic cage and shoulder girdle changes, breathing becomes more superficial, and tension settles as a habitual background.
This workshop offers not a set of techniques, but a clear working system and a step-by-step protocol for addressing the thoracic spine and shoulder girdle, which can be immediately applied in practice.
Suitable for specialists of any level and particularly useful for those working with back pain, posture-related issues, and restricted shoulder mobility.
Program includes:
— essential anatomy of the thoracic spine and shoulder girdle,
— biomechanics of rounded shoulders and postural kyphosis: what happens to muscles and fascia,
— breathing and its influence on tissue tone,
— session structure and treatment priorities,
— hands-on practice of deep tissue massage and myofascial release techniques,
— a ready-to-use protocol for practical application.
Format:
1 day · 10:00–17:00. Handbook and video materials included.
