Stretch Deeper. Treat Stronger. Work Smarter.

November 27–28, 2026 | Dorval, QC | 2-Day Intensive | $750 CAD

Learn how to create deeper stretches, stronger soft-tissue treatments and better lower-body mobility — without relying on brute force.

The Thai Sports Massage Lower Body Masterclass is a two-day hands-on intensive combining Thai-inspired assisted stretching and deep tissue techniques with sports massage, biomechanics and active movement.

This isn’t traditional Thai massage.

It isn’t conventional sports massage either.

It’s a practical system designed to help therapists get more therapeutic effect with less unnecessary effort.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

Over two days, we’ll focus on practical strategies for the:

Hips • Glutes • Hamstrings • Adductors • Quads • Calves • Lower Back

You’ll learn how to combine:

– Thai-inspired assisted stretching

– Deep tissue techniques using body weight and leverage

– Hip and lower-body mobility

– Joint traction and decompression

– Active myofascial techniques

– Muscle Energy Techniques (MET)

– Compression and movement

– Efficient use of knees, forearms, elbows and other contact points

– Better therapist positioning and body mechanics

THE OUTCOME

The goal isn’t to give you another 30 techniques to memorize.

It’s to change how you approach lower-body treatment.

You’ll learn how to use leverage and positioning to create deep stretches without fighting against the client.

How to deliver deep pressure without exhausting your hands.

How to combine mobility and soft-tissue work instead of treating them as two separate things.

And most importantly, how to understand the principles behind the techniques so you can adapt them to the individual on your table.

More options. Less effort. Better treatment longevity.

DEEP TISSUE DOESN’T HAVE TO MEAN PUSHING HARDER.

A lot of therapists are taught that when a client wants deeper pressure, the answer is simply:

Use more force.

But strength has limits.

Leverage doesn’t.

You’ll learn how to use your body weight, positioning and different contact points to generate powerful pressure while reducing unnecessary stress on your thumbs, fingers, wrists and shoulders.

This becomes especially valuable when treating athletes, muscular clients and people who need substantial pressure.

STRETCHING + DEEP TISSUE + MOVEMENT

Instead of separating stretching from massage, we’ll explore ways to combine them.

A muscle can be compressed while being lengthened.

A joint can be decompressed while surrounding tissues are treated.

The client can actively move while you create targeted resistance or pressure.

This creates a treatment experience that is dynamic, adaptable and efficient.

WHO THIS MASTERCLASS IS FOR

Designed for massage therapists, RMTs, bodyworkers and qualified manual therapists who want to:

– Improve their lower-body treatment skills

– Become more confident with assisted stretching

– Work more effectively with athletic clients

– Develop better hip mobility strategies

– Deliver deep pressure with less physical effort

– Protect their hands and thumbs

– Add Thai-inspired techniques without becoming a traditional Thai massage therapist

THE PHILOSOPHY

Take what is useful. Understand why it works. Then make it your own.

This masterclass brings together principles from Thai massage, sports massage, assisted stretching, myofascial work, MET and biomechanics.

Not to create another rigid modality.

But to give you a system of principles you can integrate into the way you already treat.

Maximum therapeutic effect. Minimum unnecessary effort.
