Prerequisite: Frontal Release of the Cervical Spine
These two workshops go hand and hand. The frontal releases for the shoulder is a great follow-up workshop to the cervical spine. Using basic skills learned from the cervical spine workshop and incorporating the information with the shoulder region, your clients will improve neck and shoulder range of motion. Both classes are an interactive hands-on experience designed to give you immediate tools to take back to your practice and utilize on your clients. Jan is a patient teacher and her presentations show that she is passionate about Soft Tissue Injuries.
