Module 12 Foot Massage

Hammer Toes I have one client he's 97 and does have Hammer toes on one foot. I worked on him last Friday. He said rolling the toes down and gently pulling on them felt amazing. I work on him every week and this is a very good way i may be able to help his feet to feel better in his last days with us. I do believe he wear shoe not fitting his feet right. To short.

Thanks for this Module

You are already putting all these techniques to good use, and apparently with good results. You will definitely be able to help these clients with repeated sessions. I am happy to hear that this course is helping your practice! Smile

Module 14 Foot Massage

I worked on a client last week with Plantar Faciites, With her i also asked about what type of shoes she wear and again she is wearing flats.  And always have. But she is over weight. So I told her where I will be working on the Abductor Hallucis muscle. So in with her reg. foot massage I paid extra attention to that area for her foot. Also used my fist in the sole of her foot a lot. Told her each time she comes in i will pay more attention to those areas on her feet. And in over time working on that it may help her pain in the sole of her feet.

Thank you Dean Samuels LMT

MODULE 15 Foot Massage

This Section will be very helpful for in the future of my massage. I do not have any one with this problem, BUT I'm a Tai Chi instructor and I do practice Tai Chi bare foot. And some of my Student I have notice with this problem. In my class I going to have one day with feet heatlh and introduce these exercises. Of Foot Rolling, and slowly bending of the knees over there feet. and show them how to improve there problem. With the bending of knees I will call it" Seating In Invisible Chair." And If they need more feet care offer them to come in to my work place of massage and work on there feet.

Shama, I love this videoSmile 

Thank you so much!! Dean Samuels LMT

Module 16 Foot Massage

In this segment of foot massage will help me in understanding why most people have a lot of foot Issues.

There is a lot to think about as you work on client feet. I have took some time in there massage session to help them by showing them some of there Gate Posture and how they hold there stance. In doing so i showed then some ways you have mentioned that may help there feet by improving there Gate and Posture. and feet placement as they walk. I also mention that it will take a very long time to see some improvement .

Thank you Shama

Module 17 Foot Massage Putting it all together.

In this section i got with my wife did each of the Tec. you showed. Spent some good Quality time on her feet. In reply she loved 90% of all the Tec. I do know it will take time of working on my clients feet to get them to see much improvement. Those that i have worked on with these Tec. you showed I feel we will have GREAT improvement in feet health. Plus educating them in proper Gate and shoe wear. Most of my clients are retired and have worn wrong shoes or worked in a place that required safety steel toes shoes and walked on cement or office with heels that were bad for the feet. So I know it will take some time to help them. But I have had Good response so far. 

Thank you Shama, I love this course and it has help me so much. I looking forward to taking another one from your Library.

Now test time for my Certification.
