Therapeutic Myofascial Release Techniques for the Head, Neck and Jaw

Releasing the Weight of the Mind, Restoring Clarityโ€™s Graceful Flow

Chronic headaches, TMJ dysfunction, tech-neck, and forward head posture are increasingly common conditions among clients. This full-day hands-on course equips massage therapists with specialized, therapeutic techniques for addressing muscular tension and fascial restrictions in the head, neck, jaw, and cervical spine. Drawing from myofascial release, neuromuscular therapy, cranial soft tissue work, and intraoral protocols (externally applied), students will gain confidence working with this delicate and often neglected region of the body. Special focus is placed on client communication, gentle touch, and structural awareness, empowering practitioners to work effectively and safely with issues like bruxism, headaches, whiplash, and postural strain.
