Course Objectives
This 2 hour workshop will focus on the hand of the Level 1 curriculum that address the most basic hand pain complaints. This section offers 5 techniques for hand, palm, finger, and thumb pain. (Always do an upper-body workout first before doing Hand Work techniques.)
It will not include back/hips, upper body, feet, or knee pain. If offered on the same day/weekend. This course would pair well with shoulder workshop.
Once completed, this mini-course will allow you learn the tools for personal use. This mini-course is a great way to provide a sample of the power of Rossiter Stretching work without the investment in time and money for the Professional Level 1 (which is a 16 hour course) over one weekend.
This is one course of 5 mini-courses on the path to completing Level 1 Professional Rossiter Coach training. For Professional Rossiter Coach training, you would take all 5 mini-courses to add these skills to your Professional toolbox: Completing all 5 Level 1 mini-courses will allow students to test out for a Level 1 comprehension review ($$) and use the materials professionally, and may then be insurable using the “Rossiter Stretching Coach” with various fitness/massage insurance companies.
Any of the 1A or 1B mini-courses can be taken in any order, but it is advised that 1A (Upper Body) be taken prior to hand (1C); or 1B (Lower body) be taken prior to the Knee or Foot Mini-course, as they build on the foundations of those stretches.
Our Mini courses offer an opportunity for learning stretches for specific areas of the body.
Shoulder/Neck/Arm Work: This section offers 12 techniques for upper body pain and mobility issues.
Back/Hip Work: This section offers 8 techniques for low back and hip pain.
Knee Work: This section offers 6 techniques for knee, calf and hamstring pain or tightness.

Hand Work: This section offers 5 techniques for hand, palm, finger, and thumb pain. Always do an upper-body
workout first before doing Hand Work techniques.
