This class is to take the massage knowledge and skills you have and apply it to veteran care. We
will talk about specific health concerns, conditions, and disabilities (combat related and non-
combat related) pertaining to veterans. Massage helps address muscles, muscle groups,
tendons, soft tissues, etc. with the intent to provide pain relief, create more range of motion
and flexibility, relax the mind, improve circulation and lymphatic movement, breakup adhesions
and assist the clients in helping themselves create a healthier life. This is not an all-inclusive list
of health concerns but gives an overview of the most common troubles veterans present.

Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. This is a way to can be stretched through assistance to facilitate muscle health! Please wear comfortable clothing that can stretch with you easily as this is performed while clothed.

Sports massage includes different techniques that focus on manipulating the soft tissues of your body to correct imbalance caused by athletic performance. In addition to your muscles, which you would expect to receive manipulation in an ordinary Swedish massage, sports massage focuses on fascia, which lines and connects all the structures in your body, and even tendons and ligaments.
“Sports massage is enormously beneficial for athletes who are looking to improve their range of motion, increase flexibility, relieve muscle aches caused from recurrent activity, and manage any pain associated with a particular movement.

EMA believes that the foundation of quality bodywork begins with the FUNDAMENTALS.... you got it... KNOWING YOUR ANATOMY! Like the back of your hand! That is why we have developed Syndaver education "The Human Body Rediscovered".
Cadaver Experience has been described by students as extremely eye opening. Seeing the body in a three dimensional sense allows them to have a much firmer understanding of muscles in relationship to surrounding structures such as the organs and the skeletal system they envelop. This approach to learning about the body is highly engaging for our students. They get to actually see the layers of muscles and the relationship of connective tissues layers within the body.
Working with the SYNdaver (simulation of living tissues) we can feel living tissue samples, as well as not be exposed to the harmful preservatives that you have with cadaver labs.
“I often like to say that being a Massage Therapist, or any type of manual or movement therapist / practitioner, and never having seen the inside of the human body is like being a car mechanic and never having opened up the hood!” – Dr. Joe Muscolino
