ZU2.) Muscle-Specific Deep Tissue Techniques for the Legs & Hips (Seattle November 17, 2024)
Product Description
Instructor: Brian Utting, LMT; NCBTMB #451040-09
The legs are often treated by bodyworkers for the least amount of time in a session. Yet they support the upper body and are under tremendous compressive force, whether moving or stationary. When the structures of the feet and legs are functioning properly, they are one of the fundamental anchors of our stability and support. When they’re not, they are a major contributor to foot, knee, hip, and low back issues.
In this class, you will learn specific, potent, and effective Deep Tissue techniques to release the muscles and fascia of the hips, legs and feet. Some of the specific muscle groups you will work with include the deep calf flexors (tibialis posterior, flexor hallucis, flexor digitorum), the anterior compartment (tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum), the quadriceps group, the tensor fascia latae and IT tract, the gluteals, the deep lateral rotators, hamstrings, and adductors. These are simple, straightforward, muscle-specific techniques that can be immediately applied in practice. Body mechanics will also be a focus of the class, as well as proper use of hands, elbows, and forearms to save wear and tear on joints.

- Technique/Demo/Practical: Masking is required during the non-lecture portion of class when doing technique, watching a demo, or doing any close contact practicals. Please wear a surgical mask, N95 respirator or KN95 respirator -- choose what works best for you among these options. Please bring 2 masks or respirators for each day of class, you should only need one per day, but one is a backup just in case. For full details about our masking policy, please click HERE.
What to Bring: Set of sheets, face cradle cover, two pillows; a surgical mask, N95 respirator or KN95 respirator. Wear loose clothing, underwear, and bring a pair of loose fitting shorts; . Some work will be done directly on the skin of the gluteal area, so please wear underwear or drape in a way that will allow access. There is also some standing work that is done directly on skin, so please make sure you bring a pair of loose-fitting shorts for this (not lycra or spandex). Please leave everything not needed for class in your vehicle or at home. Use a large tote bag or suitcase to contain your "what to bring items".
