Event Status:
Self-massage 101: On the ball!
Join JJ Tiziou, LMT for a self-massage workshop at The Cedar Works where you'll learn easy ways to apply therapeutic pressure using tennis or lacrosse balls and other tools to give yourself a massage anywhere, anytime!
WHAT WE'LL COVER:
- Various weight-based self-massage techniques that deliver more impact with less effort
- Ergonomic and alignment adjustments to find techniques that work best for you
- Injury prevention
WHAT YOU'LL GET:
Techniques that will last you a lifetime that you can share with friends, family, and anyone in need of care.
You'll also get a complementary pair of lacrosse balls to take home with you to start putting what you've learned into practice right away.
WHAT TO WEAR / BRING:
Please bring a clean pair of socks and wear comfortable clothes that you can move around in (tights, athleticwear, sweats, scrubs, etc) without lots of pokey bits (buckles, buttons etc). A water bottle is a good idea too!
ACCESSIBILITY:
Physical accessibility:
The Cedar Works is a ground-floor ADA accessible space. This workshop assumes about as much mobility as the average yoga class – we'll be spending much of the time on the floor, and many of the techniques assume the ability to climb onto a table or sit down on the floor; please get in touch if you have any accessibility concerns.
Financial accessibility:
When registering, please choose the highest rate that feels accessible to you to help me continue to be able to make my work accessible to others. If finances are a barrier, please get in touch; two discounted / scholarship registrations are available.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
JJ Tiziou is a Licensed Massage Therapist (Lic. # MSG013959) practicing in West Philadelphia.
