Where are your shoulders right now? If you’re like most folks, you probably find them creeping toward your ears throughout the day. We tend to carry much of our tension in our neck and shoulders, which can lead to a host of problems, including tightness, pain, headaches, and more. The morning session of this special workshop will explore techniques to ease the burdens we carry in our neck and shoulders – sign up for this as a standalone session, or make a day of it and come to both sessions!
In the afternoon session, we’ll learn how to support our hard-working hands and feet. Think about how much these parts of our bodies do for us every day: walking, standing, grasping, typing… they could use a bit of TLC. You’ll learn simple ways to work on the hands & feet to release tension and increase relaxation.
Catharine and Emily are not only licensed massage therapists but Purna Yoga instructors! Catharine (CPYI, 2,000 HR) is the director of Purna Yoga East in Clayton, NC and Emily (500 HR PY Teacher) is one of her primary instructors. Catharine – one of the lead instructors for Purna Yoga College – is also a long-time massage instructor and has been training massage therapists with Emily as her assistant for several years.
Together, these talented instructors, trainers, and massage therapists will draw on all of these different strengths to guide you through simple set-ups and techniques that you can deliver and receive comfortably in your own home. Bring a family member or friend, and spend some time developing confidence in your ability to provide care and comfort to your loved ones!
I love massage, but I rarely have time for a full-body session with a massage therapist. I'm excited to learn ways to bring the benefits of massage into my home every day, to use for myself and for my family. This will be a great addition to my evening ``wind-down`` routine!
