Description

Seated Acupressure Therapy is the 'must have' skill for any professional massage practitioner wanting to expand their private practice, or enter into the wider business world.Acupressure is an ancient treatment technique with its origins in the Orient that has been given a 21st Century makeover, tailoring the treatment for today's fast-paced, stress-driven work-place environment.The treatment is received through clothes on a specially designed massage chair. The chairs are unbelievably comfortable, the treatment is fast, dynamic and it gets results. Almost without exception, clients report feeling totally relaxed yet wide awake, alert and ready to get back to work.No more aching backs for the therapist either, as the stance used throughout the sequence protects and strengthens the back and legs, and opens the energy channels.
