Superficial FASCIA
In massage therapy, muscle gets all the attention. Skin and fat? Not so much. But what if the tissue we work through to reach muscle is doing more than we ever gave it credit for?
Researchers are now recognizing the superficial fascia one of the most innervated tissues in the human body. It organizes our fat, supports our lymphatics, and helps create scar tissue. And it responds to every massage stroke you deliver.
You've been working with this tissue your entire career. So how would your touch change if you actually knew this tissue?

Here's what you'll find in the Superficial Fascia Course:
Inside, you'll find the anatomy that massage school skipped: the organized fibrous architecture beneath your skin, the tissue that buffers, anchors, and senses. You'll see it in the dissection lab, understand what the latest research is revealing, and come away with a clearer picture of what's happening under your hands.
This isn't anatomy for its own sake. It's anatomy for touch.
Your Superficial Fascia Course includes . . .
Anatomy🎨ART: Superficial Fascia
A beautiful, downloadable, and sharable Anatomy🎨ART Card, stylized from a real image from the dissection lab with detailed explanation on the back.
Anatomy📖ZINE
COURSE MANUAL: A deep dive into the superficial fascia and the subcutaneous tissue it organizes: its architecture, its composition, its many roles, and why it matters to every hands-on therapist. As always, its grounded in current research and rich with dissection lab imagery.
Anatomy🎬BRIEF
Come to the Dissection Lab with us for two brief videos on the superficial fascia. We look comparatively at the superficial fascia of the 1) lumbar region and 2) the anterior thigh. Same tissue, different regions, and the differences are worth seeing.
Anatomy🖍LOUNGE
WEBINAR: In this pre-recorded session, Nicole & Rachelle walk through the anatomy, the research, and the clinical implications together. Expect props, dissection lab footage, and the kind of conversation that makes anatomy stick.
This course is for massage therapists, bodyworkers, movement therapists, and anyone whose work begins with touch.
AnatomySCAPES courses are built in the dissection lab, where research meets real tissue and the anatomy becomes three-dimensional.
