SiMCP Fun Fact:

This program is rooted in the Peer Support Values and Embodiment Practices that started my own coaching journey way back when. They gives a beautifully rich dynamic to the relationships you’ll form as you begin to practice health, wellness, and life coaching.

Individual Stand-alone Courses

  • A comprehensive study of parts work in the touch modalities. Hands-on techniques explore and enhance 3D release skills, encouraging and guiding client participation via breath, muscular engagement and active joint mobilization, and facial movements involving the tongue and eyes.

    Theory components guide practitioners to communicate more effectively with clients during the session, read the tissue more accurately, and pick up on verbal and non-verbal cures from the client that can be engaged with to produce better therapeutic success while staying within the scope of practice.

  • This standalone course aims to enhance practitioner skills in body mechanics, applied Anatomy especially OIAS, and Kinesiology, and introduces concepts from TCM, Fascial Chains and Martial Arts

MTFP Fun Fact:

I started day dreaming of this curriculum before I even went to massage school - it’s inspired by rock climbing, mental health communities, the Connecticut river, and the TCM-integrated fascial work that I received from my mentor.
