I'll let you in on a little secret. Computers keep us in business. I see more desk bound office workers than landscapers, tradesmen, and sports people combined. I thought I'd post this up as a quick run down on some easy-to-identify postures that will make treatment approaches easy to apply also. But moreso, I'd like to put it out there and get a bit of feedback on a structural approach used in massage. I think it would be a step forward to for the massage therapists to be working together with the physios & osteos if we were speaking in the same language and, having been a massage therapist before I became an osteopath, I know soft tissue approaches can be quite effective in most clients that we see as osteopaths.
