Webinar: Massage Technique @Work 3: Housekeeping Injuries

Whitney Lowe examines the biomechanics of housekeeping workers and how these biomechanics lead to many common injury complaints in the low back and upper extremities. Techniques focus on the paraspinal muscles, deep intrinsic spinal muscles, lumbodorsal fascia, quadratus lumborum, and forearm extensors.
