Why Massage Therapists are Heading to the Dissection Lab

Why are so many massage therapists heading to the dissection lab? The NY Times had the same question.

In a new article out this week, Danielle Friedman of The NY Times headed to the dissection lab with massage therapists and yoga teachers. What did she learn? 🤔

The same thing that we learn at AnatomySCAPES: dissection lab experiences change how you touch and understand the tissues under your hands. This is why we do what we do. 👍👍

One massage therapist in the lab commented that she better understood "what is — and isn’t — in her hands when she works with clients."

Another developed a heightened sense of anatomy in 3D, re-assessing whether she could access her clients' psoas and quadratus lumborum with her hands.

We can learn so much from books, apps, and diagrams. Dissection is a much more complete way to understand the three-dimensional human body. We are so thankful that AnatomySCAPES gets to create similar dissection lab experiences for hands-on therapists.

And YOU can come join us! 🎉💪
