Course Description
Master Sports Massage Techniques from Head to Toe
In this Sports Massage Technique Masterclass, Michael Eric Everson, Manual Osteopath, Registered Massage Therapist, and Yoga Teacher, teaches practical sports massage techniques for the entire body.
Whether you are a massage therapist, sports massage therapist, bodyworker, manual therapist, or massage student, this course will give you a broad range of hands-on techniques you can incorporate into your massage therapy practice.
You will learn more than traditional sports massage. You'll develop a versatile treatment toolkit that can be applied to sports massage, deep tissue massage, therapeutic massage, injury recovery, mobility work, and general massage therapy.
In this sports massage course, you will learn:
Sports Massage Techniques for the entire body
Movement Release Techniques
Muscle Energy Techniques (MET)
Deep Tissue Massage Techniques
Positional Release Techniques
Medical Massage Techniques
Techniques for improving mobility and functional movement
How to adapt pressure, rhythm, positioning, and technique to different clients
You'll also learn how to structure massage sessions for pre-event, post-event, and maintenance sports massage, with practical guidance on pressure, rhythm, sequencing, and treatment flow.
Learn Practical Techniques You Can Use in Your Massage Practice
Watch detailed demonstrations and real-world examples as Michael breaks down each technique step by step. You'll learn how and when to apply different sports massage and therapeutic massage techniques, rather than simply memorizing a collection of techniques.
A major goal of this course is to help you build a larger massage therapy technique toolbox. Having a variety of approaches allows you to adapt your treatment to the individual client, their goals, and the demands of their activity.
These are techniques Michael wishes he had known earlier in his career, distilled into a clear, practical, and no-time-wasted format.
Understand the Goals of Sports Massage
Throughout the course, you'll explore how sports massage can be used to support:
Athletic performance
Recovery after physical activity
Injury prevention strategies
Mobility and range of motion
Functional movement
Muscle tension management
Pre-event and post-event preparation
General therapeutic massage goals
Whether you work with athletes or simply want to expand your massage therapy skills, this course provides techniques that can be incorporated into a wide variety of hands-on treatments.

Thanks God! I'm so excited and happy about this course, it is the first one but not last. I will continue expanding my knowledge every single day. The classes are so understanding, the instructor is amazing and highly qualified. I just loved this course. Thank you so much!!!

es war anders als erwartet, es ist eher für Masseure geeignet, die schon sehr geübt sind in ihrer Sportmassage und sich mit Faszien, usw. auskennen und sich noch weiter vertiefen wollen

The course content was top-notch, offering precise techniques that greatly improved my skills. The instructor's expertise shone through; his demonstrations catered to all levels! Although some camera angles could be better while presenting, overall, it was incredibly worthwhile!

This is an absolutely amazing course. Michael is a phenomenal instructor, who is thorough. I love his approach to the work he does and how informative he is. I appreciate how he has his segments for each topic set up. The organization of it all is definitely Libra behavior lol. I will be looking forward to completing other courses he instructs.
By Jessica Marallo on 7/19/2023
Very helpful information. I appreciate how it was laid out by parts of the body because it allowed me to do some practice on each area to solidify the information before moving to a new part of the body. I would have liked to see an example of what a whole session might look like, or have some notes on what sort of issues are common to which sports as a sort of cheat sheet but I can always work that out on my own.

The course is exceptional and easy to follow. The instructor has a vast knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology and provides great techniques to start using when working with both athletes and office athletes

I've been a sports therapist for 20 years and I thought this was one of the best- quick- full of technique and not a a lot of fluff courses I have ever taken. Already incorporating some of these techniques into my toolbox here at Spring Training!
By Marie Rushworth on 9/22/2022
Absolutely brilliant! I am relatively new into the field of Sport Massage therapy and I have found this course to be enlightening, interesting, informative and confidence building. Such good value for money!
By Calvin Ward on 5/10/2022
I just think these classes are absolutely fantastic. I am a licensed massage therapist as well as the Nationally board-certified massage therapist and this is one of the experts that I absolutely love watching, and repeat.
By Stuthridge Sherry on 5/9/2022
it is a very good course, I could work at my own speed... i have a busy toddler, so the fact that i could go back and re watch the videos helped me a lot... I am a visual learner so with the videos explaining step for step, it was manageable and I was able to complete it without struggling
