  • The Vasomotor Response

    The Vasomotor response: It is common when applying myofascial release techniques to witness a vasomotor response beneath as well as beyond the contact of your hands. What is a Vasomotor response?

  • Fascial Release for Internal Scar Tissue

  • Myofascial Release Techniques – How they Changed my Treatments for the Better

  • Why the wait? Fascial release

    As traditional bodywork therapists we move the body tissues, manipulate and mobilise muscles, fascia and connective tissue. We flush through, lengthen, re-align and encourage the blood supply, amongst other things. So why during myofascial techniques are we suddenly being taught to wait and feel for a release? Well basically, fascia is made up of 3 Continue reading »

I would recommend the School of Bodywork to anyone considering a career move into the therapeutic world. As a secondary school teacher, I was consistently impressed by the quality and depth of resources provided to support students through their Diploma in Anatomy and Physiology. My exam results arrived this morning and I have passed all parts of the exam with flying colours! I have been exceptionally well supported throughout the course both on a personal and a professional level. Its been a privilege to work alongside professional therapists who find real joy in their work and I am so looking forward to the next chapter... Remedial Massage! Thank you Emma, Sarah, Ruth, Joy and Belle for sharing your passion for therapeutic touch across the Complete Bodyworker course.

Absolutely fabulous courses and ongoing support. I would recommend to anyone who was interested in either pursuing a career in massage, or wanting to enhance their existing skills. A huge range of courses on offer, with more always being added. Fantastic tutors who make you feel part of the team and not just a number like some other courses I have experienced.

A friendly, relaxing place to study with exceptionally knowledgeable & warm tutors/mentors. Learning anatomy, physiology & massage at The School of Bodywork was a wonderfully enriching experience. Not only did I graduate with results that surpassed my expectations & grew enormously as a person, but I got to meet some very interesting individuals & make some great friends along the way :)
