Depth Through Accuracy
Learn to achieve depth through accuracy, not brute force. Stimulating the Golgi tendon organs and the musculotendonous junction can “trick” the muscle into releasing to protect the tendon. With accuracy, the technique takes only a few seconds to positively impact each muscle. It can be integrated into any massage and is useful for all clients who wish to improve pain-free range of motion and maximize performance potential.
