In this DVD, 'Seated Upper Body Massage' tutor and practitioner Andrew Sceats clearly explains the sequence of massage movements which forms the basis of his accredited course which He teaches to therapists and others throughout the UK.

This form of massage has the client sitting clothed in either an ergonomic massage chair or using a desk top massage unit. Although seated massage is relatively short in duration, the movements carried out on the upper body shown in the DVD can be adapted to form the basis of a longer massage either in a massage chair or on a conventional massage couch.

The areas covered on the DVD are the back, neck, shoulders, arms and hands, scalp and face. Andrew is keen to advocate protecting therapists in their bodywork so He emphasises good therapist posture, the opportunity for them to treat sitting down during a treatment and the option of using hand held massagers. In addition to showing common massage strokes and acupressure action on the body's meridians, Andrew also emphasises the importance of stretching and deep muscle vibrations.

The viewer can study the massage sequence as a whole or view the sections about the various parts of the body separately. This DVD is the result of Andrew's 20 years experience and training in massage, reflexology, Reiki and ear candling. Andrew has also written the definitive textbook 'Ear Candling and Other Treatments for Ear, Nose & Throat Problems' (Our stock code 04000)
