Learn the art and science of this ancient Northern Thai healing tradition. Tok Sen therapy employs a wooden hammer or mallet and chisel along the Thai Sen energy pathways. It acts as a Thai form of tapotement, and the vibration caused by tapping along the Sen channels assists in releasing muscle tension and blocked energy. It is soothing and gentle for the client. You will learn protocols for each of the Thai Sen lines as well as how to freestyle and incorporate this technique into your existing Thai or table massages. Each student will receive a high-quality rosewood Tok Sen set to take home. Previous Thai massage experience is recommended.

Please Bring: One set of massage sheets, a small amount of cream or oil, and 1 hand towel. 

A lunch break will be taken midday; you may bring your lunch, or eat at one of the many restaurants located nearby.

Sarah Brant’s call to massage therapy began early in life. Dealing with crippling headaches for years, the only relief she found was in massage. She believed so strongly in this way of healing and sought to help others who were experiencing similar issues. Sarah has been practicing bodywork since graduating from Southeastern Institute in Charlotte, NC in 2013. She went on to work for Eden Therapy and Massage before opening her own practice, Turning Pointe Massage, in 2016.

Sarah is a retired classically trained ballerina and Black Belt in Tang Soo Do, now combining her passions into educating others on the importance of self-care, body movement, and stretching! She was recommended by a teacher to take a Thai Massage CE class and from her first class with Living Sabai in June of 2019, she knew that she was meant for Thai Massage!  She immediately began taking all of Living Sabai’s courses, falling in love with being a TA, and finally traveling to Chiang Mai, Thailand in January 2023 for the study abroad trip. There she studied at ITM and OmSala. Her favorite part of teaching is watching students fall in love with Thai massage and find a revitalization for their practices.

In her spare time, Sarah enjoys camping with her husband, son, and Australian Shepherd. As a family they love to travel, mountain bike, and listen to live music.

This eight-hour class focuses on effectiveness of therapeutic massage with clients in side-lying position.  This class is directed toward clinical work with any client and does not address prenatal massage.

This class is designed to help therapist learn to work certain areas of the body with the client resting on their side.  This position might be necessary due to conditions the client is experiencing or it might be indicated based on the symptoms or problems the client presents in their intake.  This position is particularly effective with working around latissmus dorsi, serratus anterior, shoulder, iliac crest, hip area muscles.

Mindy Oldham, RN, LMT will share clinical information, case studies and techniques for side lying. 

Topics to be covered include:

• Indications for side lying position
• Positioning and draping for side lying massage
• Lubricated and non-lubricated techniques for working with clients lying on their side
• Review of specific muscles that are more easily accessed in side-lying position
• Therapist body mechanics for working with client on their side
• Integration of side-lying with prone and supine work

This class will primarily be hands on with some lecture and discussion.  Participants need to be prepared to receive and give technique which will include draping chest area for work along hip, abdomen and shoulder.

Practicum required for course credit.

This is a forty-two hour course of training in which the students refine their skills of palpation while learning the ten-step protocol of craniosacral therapy (Hugh Milne approach with some Upledger), myofascial release, advanced unwinding, and somato-emotional release.

Course Description: Craniosacral therapy is a subtle intent approach to releasing and balancing physical, emotional and somatic imbalance within the body. On the physical level, it focuses on releasing restrictions in the fascia of the abdominal, diaphragm and chest segments, and restrictions in the reciprocal tension membrane lining the skull and the spinal column, to normalize the volume, flow, and movement of cerebral-spinal fluid within the system. Although the movements employed are quite subtle, and the pressure of the work is delicate, the results can be profound in the treatment of a range of injuries and chronic conditions including headaches, neck pain, sinus headaches and chronic congestion, and back and hip problems, among many others.

The work is performed on clothed clients, and is very powerful in addressing touch issues for clients who are recovering from trauma or abuse. The energetics of intention and presence are stressed, since the somatic-emotional connection is central to the work.

What to Bring:  Please bring a set of sheets, face cradle cover and personal blanket for each day of class for your personal usage. Craniosacral is clothed bodywork and no lubrication is needed. You may want to bring note-taking supplies and a class manual is provided. Massage tables are also provided. Dress in comfortable clothing appropriate for giving and receiving work; Please do not wear jeans.

Only drinks in covered cups are allowed in the classroom. A one-hour lunch break will be taken midday. You may bring your lunch or eat at one of the many restaurants located nearby.

Call Teresa Greene at 615-370-9794 if you have any questions.
