 Level II Workshops
This three-day workshop will build on the foundation forged by the Level I workshops that we have offered nationally since 2001. While Level I focuses on learning the technique, movements, applications and safety, Level II will take this knowledge and build upon it to position the practitioner "within the treatment cup." As is the tradition in our workshops, students will experience intensive hands-on exposure to the techniques that are presented. The Level II workshops are a fusion of approaches, using the Massage Cupping™ bodywork techniques and concepts to create individual protocols for clients with specific conditions. Special attention will be dedicated to the lymphatic system due to the intensive tissue dredging that characterizes the Massage Cupping™ bodywork technique.
Participants will present a case synopsis of either a single or a group client study devoted to a particular health imbalance or condition.
Case synopsis suggestions:
- SOAP notes
- Treatment diagrams
- Client comments and testimonials
- Photographic documentation
- Practitioner observation
- Client feedback notes

 BIO: Ivy Jo Staton is the Authorized Instructor for Bamboo-fusion for the Eastern United States. She has taught and presented workshops extensively while balancing a private practice in Durham, North Carolina where her permanent training facility, North Pointe Body Therapies, is located.
Class Description: Bamboo-Fusion is an innovative way to provide Swedish or deep tissue full body massage on the table while reducing the stress on your hands. Students will learn a new way to effleurage and petrissage with “warmed” bamboo tools that are different shapes and sizes. By introducing a new tool, therapists will increase the amount of clients you can apply deep tissue to, give longer sessions without fatigue, and it will also save your thumbs and wrists from repetitive use injuries. Students will learn effective body mechanics relative to stance, posture, and hand / wrist positioning. Students will receive and give relaxation or deep tissue strokes using bamboo tools. This class will consist of 80% hands on application utilizing the bamboo tools and 20% lecture.
Required Materials for Class: Please bring massage table with face cradle, a pillow or bolster and a full set of linens.
