Massage Approaches for Tension Headaches (NCBTMB approval pending)

Massage Approaches for Tension Headaches

This hands-on course explores massage approaches for clients experiencing tension headaches, drawing on a protocol used in a research study. Participants practice tissue preparation, myofascial work, cervical techniques, trigger-point work, and stretching, with attention to appropriate pressure and positioning. The emphasis is on adapting a structured sequence to individual needs rather than following a rigid routine.

The course also addresses screening, precautions, and when to refer for medical evaluation.
