Basic Back Massage Routine

[@coachtaramathews]

This was so relaxing to watch :) As an LMT of 15 years, I always learn something new when watching someone else do massage. Thanks for sharing!

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Never hurts, no matter how long we've been in the profession, to see what others are doing technique wise. Thank you so much for watching and happy to know I could help a seasoned LMT!!

[@user-id9qh6yl5s]

wish you were my teacher when i was in school. you have a great way of explaining and really make it look easy. thanks for giving me some new techniques!

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Thank you! I try to make learning fun, easy and relatable. Glad you were still able to learn something!

[@Bubu_zoko]

What a video! What a massage! I was fighting falling asleep while learning these fantastic techniques, SO RELAXING! can’t wait to practice on my next client. Thank you!

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Haha yeah that's the problem with watching massage videos, make you sleepy! Glad you liked the video.

[@lastdap4885]

I get sleepy watching this!! But in a good way it's so relaxing great job!!

[@user-sh8kc4kz2h]

Keep making videos like this, your channel will grow. People love massage tutorials that are also relaxing. Those channels that have background music are so annoying. This is perfecf

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Thank you for watching and the feed back. I have been a little busy but I will be recoding again soon!

[@susandavies50]

Oh man this looks amazing!!

[@andranikovichyg9157]

Rob thanks for this awesome video it is really informative lots of therapists they make videos without information what really they are doing but yours is the best when you are speaking telling what you are doing please make more massage videos specially for deep massage work Thanks

[@paulaserrano3769]

Wow, so many new moves to try. I’ve gotten a little bored with my routine so this is refreshing. Thank you for making this video ❤

[@melodiejaovita4051]

Best massage video Ive watched so far!

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Thank you so much!

[@quartezbuck-jackson5636]

Thanks for the knowledge man, I’m in massage therapy class now and looking at your vids is helping me get a routine set

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Glad I can help you out. Enjoy massage school, it's the best!

[@yingli4738]

Great video! Lots of specific techniques demonstrated will be very helpful for less experienced therapists! Thanks!

[@louisspiga4813]

I'm Soo relaxed just by watching videos like this! I could imagine if I was the patient 😂 I pretend in my mind as I'm watching it's me being massaged! Lol

[@yolandacarson4711]

Thank you for showing great stretches without charging ushundreds and thousands of dollars. Really, thank you.

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

You're welcome! Glad you liked the video!

[@michelledeehorticultrist]

You have some really amazing techniques!! I will be incorporating some of them into my routine!!

[@krisztinanemeth8040]

Happy having found your channel, learning a lot & being inspired by you. Thanks and congrats 🤗.

[@alllifematters]

Thanks, you have alot of good techniques. I came for inspiration, I'm getting lazy, I think. Im down to just using my palm, fist and forearm... need to remember how to use other tools. I appreciate how you communicate exactly where your hand position is by talking about the muscles. Thanks

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Glad you liked the video. I resonate heavily with getting lazy and sticking with only a few techniques. For that reason I take some courses, trade with friends and even watch videos to keep myself fresh!

[@rickwhite1169]

Great video. I can't believe your vids don't have more views. Hope your channel starts growing quickly. You have my subscription sir!

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Thank you! Keep getting up there slow and steady.

[@claysmith4909]

great demostration skills! NICE STRETCH MOVES

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Thank you, hope your clients love them!

[@catherinecheer7468]

Omg i am an esthetician/massage therapist. I have more clients that requests for me to massage and I see you using most of the technique that I have already used. I am looking forward into applying more techniques that I have learnt today from you.

[@Gatorspartan]

Can I get a massage from you?

[@GreggDiAnthony]

That was fresh bro I really like your stretches. I got some really good ideas to incorporate now. I can't wait to try some of that out

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Glad you liked them! Hope the stretches are serving you well, stretching is what kept me solidly booked!

[@johannajonsson3196]

Wow, I learned so much from this video as a new masseus!

[@chicagomike]

A terrific teacher. God bless

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Thank you!

[@ILoveBananaSmoothie]

Hi Rob, were you sitting while you're doing your stretches at the end?

[@bordersanctuary3163]

Rob when wearing black your energy field absorbs everything from your client. 🙏🏻

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Interesting. Thanks for that information!

[@paulinissha]

Really ? Can you explain more please

[@kristinamook]

Black makes you open for energies around you. White will block it. 😊

[@melissaboylan4798]

I'm an empath that absorbs everyone else's energy and I'm sure it's vice versa. I need to learn how to create barriers. When someone is happy and excited, my mood will be elevated, which is wonderful. The other direction, when someone is sad and, especially anxious, I soak it up like a sponge. Any advice?

[@kristinamook]

@melissaboylan4798 try to realize it in that moment when u catch someone's emotions. You can't change people anyway so just leave the room or take a deep breath and and stay in your energy. We need to practice that. It makes is very 💪 and conscious.

[@Matthew-xf9hn]

YOUR HANDS ARE GREAT TO WATCH ROB! but let me ask you as a LMT, how tired are your arms/hands/cervical region after a day of massage? i feel like im doing it wrong if im tired??

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Over the years it has come to grow on me the stress on those areas. Mostly hands. After a full day they can be a little tiered. I do my best to change up my routine and the techniques that I use to not keep getting the same stresses on my hands. Perhaps I can make a video on this topic. I can suggest recording yourself performing a massage to have a 3rd person perspective on your body mechanics.

[@jenniferstrong5112]

Great techniques, thanks for the video!

[@haroldsimpson8422]

"certain anatomy resting on the back of your client's head" lol. As a large breasted woman, I do that technique standing up in a squat. Loved your video and explanations by the way, I've just subscribed to your channel.

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

HA I definitely don't have issues with that, but I'm sure there are plenty of ways to adapt! Thank you for watching and subscribing, more content coming out this year so be on the watch!!

great stretching routine. Thank you so much

[@Maurice-gq9br]

Wow beautiful, but are these Swedish massage tecniques or deep tissue?

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

Short answer: They could be used for either, you would just change the application/approach in your session based off of the modality. Long answer: *WARNING UNPOPULAR OPINIONS INBOUND* First we must understand that all of the massage manipulations in our arsenal (Effleurage, petrissage, etc..) serve the purpose of the definition of Massage Therapy which is, "the manual manipulation of the soft tissues of the body for therapeutic or palliative purposes." Then we must ask ourselves, what is the difference between Swedish and Deep tissue, or any other modality for that matter. In my opinion modalities only specify the purpose/intent of the massage and there are a lot of overlapping similarities in both goals and implementations between a lot of our modalities. The running joke to me and many other massage therapists is that the difference between Swedish and Deep tissue is $10 lol. Deep tissue is meant to address the deeper muscles of the body, while Swedish is meant to be more overall encompassing and relaxing. But does Swedish not work deeper muscles of the body? And can you not address the totality of the body and acquire a relaxing result by the end of a deep tissue session? Sure, deep tissue may only have enough time to address the specifities of the clients goals, and Swedish may not have time to be as specific as deep tissue, but I feel they aren't, or don't have to be mutually exclusive. Ultimately, I never say I do one modality over the other. I simply offer massage therapy and provide customized massage sessions curtailed to my clients goals utilizing any and every influenced modality and technique that I need to achieve that goal.

[@alansherman6171]

Perfect answer Rob. I totally feel the same way. Loved how you articulated it into words. Keep up the good work.

[@msalvadorrosalescampos6138]

Genial Profe, pero le sugiero que haga otro desde un ángulo mejor, estático y actualizado, porque estoy seguro que ahora debe estar mejor ese masaje

[@LasYuyu]

That’s a very long back routine! Almost no time to focus on the rest of the body!

[@bodyworksbyrob5836]

For 50 minutes, yes, unless the client wants their back focused on the most. For 90 and 120, not really. Ultimately this is a demonstration of techniques that therapists can pick and choose from to make their own custom routine.

[@BoboEnterprises1968]

Yes. I’m about to start offering routine specific services. A lot of people don’t like full body massages or want the option of which area so work on.
