Deep Tissue I
IPSB’s style of deep tissue addresses tissue layer by layer, non-invasively, with the goal of producing
maximum release with minimal effort and without adding trauma to tissue already traumatized. This three
course series also deepens understanding of anatomy and how it functions in relation to posture and BodyMind
considerations. Common musculo-skeletal pathologies and how to work with them are included in the second
and third courses. Educating clients to feel for the experience of tissue release and not just pressure on the
tissue is also an important component of IPSB Deep Tissue, as is self-care practices for the client and therapist.
Deep Tissue I advances anatomical understanding of individual muscles and their actions and heightens
palpatory recognition of the different qualities of tension in the tissue. Adding new tools to those from the
Massage Technician level, students expand techniques to create focused tension release. Tai Chi and correct
body mechanics are practiced and integrated into the bodywork.

Sensory Repatterning I
In this advanced form of passive joint mobilization, the client's body is moved, rocked, cradled and invited to let
go, creating sensations of openness and freedom, fluidity and joy. Clients connect with their core,
physiologically and emotionally; practitioners learn to use their bodywork tools with more artistry and finesse.
Sensory Repatterning I explores the key principles of Timing, Gravity, The Skeleton and the Wave. Students
not only learn an amazingly effective 50-minute "treatment", but also deeply enhance the quality of touch and
movement they bring to the table when giving any type of bodywork. Sensory Repatterning brings confidence
and grace when moving an arm, a leg--even a client's head. The emphasis on how hands connect with the
client creates a touch that sets you apart from other bodyworkers.
Homework: Three full 50-minute sessions must be completed and logged to receive credit for this course.
