SRT for the Shoulder, Arm and Hand

This SRT class is an essential tool to quickly decrease the complex symptoms of shoulder, arm and hand pain. SRT is a gentle, effective approach using the osteopathic principles of Positional Release Therapy and Muscle Energy Technique. In this hands-on class, you will learn to understand and assess the structures of the shoulder, arm, and hand, and treat the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) and Frozen Shoulder. Taya explains how the shoulder really functions and how to gently change the culprit muscles that influence the symptoms of the shoulder, arm and hand. Instead of mashing or stretching muscles which can create more pain, SRT’s gentle approach helps to decrease the client’s pain, increase their ROM and activity. Since many massage therapists have these symptoms, this is a great class to experience the relief yourself from the hands-on treatment. SRT integrates well with other techniques and can be incorporated at any time during a treatment session. Taya provides a guideline of practical assessment and treatment protocols based on the symptoms clients present. Taya makes class fun and the detailed manual with color photos, illustrations, step-by-step instructions, symptoms, references, SRT rules, contraindications, and tips reinforces the immediate use of SRT in your practice. SRT is a tool every therapist needs.
