Most foundational massage courses only spend a short amount of time teaching students basic skills in the neck and jaw area. To be fair, it is an area that requires a certain level of experience before being able to understand and feel what your hands are seeing, and then being able to make decisions based on the information.
Understandably, most therapists lack confidence when they first start out in treating this area of the body as it does require skills that only experienced hands can give you, thus, it is best taught as an advanced course. You can find out more in my Neck, Jaw and Chest online course ➡️ www.susanfindl...
It is a sensitive area, and most clients will try to protect it, for instance, have you ever worked on someone's neck and they're trying to help by holding their head up for you....this is all down to technique, your mechanics being the most important one.
In this week's video I demonstrate bits of a case study, how to assess, move and hold a client's head and neck.
You can see that my client is completely relaxed, that in part is due to the fact that I am not trying to lift her head but instead my hands take the place of the pillow whereby she can relax and rest in them.
