With a deeper understanding of the musculature of the body, students will be able to practice massage with an enhanced awareness of their work.
"Before I took this course my massage was just massage, after the course, it was a whole new world. My understanding of the human body was broadened and I really got it on a 3 dimensional level. Like all of the other instructors I have encountered at SBBTI, Jordan Terry is top notch and very thorough with his knowledge of the human body. With a deeper knowledge of the muscles and how they work, I now have a more complete picture of what I am doing when I am massaging. It also helped me to fill in the details and understand my other classes better. I think this should be a required course."
