Introduction to Managing Your Own General Aches and Pains with Self-Massage

Instructors: Brandon Cunningham (Nurse Practitioner & Certified Personal Trainer), Katie Cunningham (Certified Massage Therapist & Certified Personal Trainer)

You don’t always need an expensive massage because you can manage most of the aches and pains on your own. This class will help guide your awareness to the muscles that may be associated with your aches and pains. Not only will you learn more about your body, but you will start to understand some of the daily activities that could be associated with the muscle imbalances that lead to pain. We will discuss self-trigger point therapy, self-myofascial release, and stretching. We will practice these techniques with a foam roll, tennis ball, and other equipment. Participants will need a mat, a tennis ball, and a foam roll. We will try and provide, or at least show, some other useful tools that can help the process of self-care.

When: One Saturday per month, 10:00 AM-Noon (2 Hours).
