Upper Back, Shoulders & Neck Workshop

December 10, 2016 @ 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Do you suffer from pain or discomfort in the upper back, shoulders or neck?
If so, come along to this experiential workshop which will shed light on the following topics:
  • Understand the anatomy of the upper spine and shoulders and the surrounding tissues
  • The importance of posture, strength and stability of the upper spine and shoulders
  • Address common causes of upper back, neck and shoulder pain
  • Learn techniques, including yoga postures, to relieve pain and instability in these regions
The workshop will begin with a presentation by the knowledgeable and extremely engaging Garry Lavis from Rathmines Physiotherapy, and it will conclude with Ginny Clarke from The Yoga Shack leading you through a yoga therapy class focused on stabilizing and mobilizing the upper spine and shoulders.
Not only will you leave the workshop with a strong upper spine and supple shoulders, but you will be provided with simple and effective postures you can use at home to continue the healing process.
Yoga experience is not necessary. You’ll learn everything you need on the day.
