Massage Tutorial: THE CALVES AND ACHILLES TENDON!!

Tired of the same old techniques to work the gastrocs, soleus, and achilles tendon? In this video I start with some basics, offer some new ways to think about working this area, then demo some advanced, more detailed techniques you can use to broaden your practice.

I'm in massage school. It's my 3rd day! I'm already dreaming about the future! I'm now going to watch your videos before I go into school. 1 step ahead of the game.

You have no idea how much of a gift this video is for me. My mother's illness is undiagnosed but her body is swelled up and is loosing strength. Alot of times her feet get really white and she wasn't being able to stand up. I performed this massage and it worked! She actually got up. Thabk you so much for this and explaining with such percision

Are we all here just to learn how to massage our mom's calves?

For some reason I fall asleep while watching this kind of stuff looks so good and relaxing.

Just to see you doing a massage, i can feel how comfortable it is. I definitely would choose you to be my massage therapist if only you were near. Thank you for sharing your technique. Two thumbs up.

Perfect! The only detailed massage on achilis that I could find on youtube. 5 stars! God bless the author!

[duanegibson]

This was a care and exquisite tutorial in such a brief amount of time. I greatly appreciate your care and thoughtfulness given not a complete class. I trust you will continue your studies beyond RMT/LMT. You will bring a lot to the profession and clients!

Any other videos you suggest? My husband has been in pain from plantar fasciitis and recently collapsed at the store from the pain. I been following this video couple times a week and guess what? He has improved so much!! Any others pls let me know so I can follow those. Thanks!

Thanks so much for this Allison. I've been looking for some myofacial release vids to help my partner's achilles injury. I find some of the 'pure' myofacial techniques a bit hard to administer (and a bit boring!), but your oil-based approach I can really work with. I'm a bit rusty with my massage these days, I trained in Tui Na over 15 years ago, and haven't been doing much of late. I'm coming back to massage with a beginners mind (although have massaged many hundreds of bodies). I REALLY like your style: deep, flowing and elegant. Also a lot of therapists on YouTube seem to only give a little away (then sell you), but you are very generous in your sharing. Thanks a bunch! Adam, Brighton, UK.

Actually someone that knows what they are talking about anatomically. Thanks!

I did this to my calves after experiencing soreness and it helped tremendously!❤

[mikesosa]

As a massage therapist I can say it was great and learned some new techniques.

[lorrih]

Omg I need this 😭😭😭 she seems better at legs than any massage I ever had.

I broke my tibia, fibula and ankle and spent 6 months in a cast a few years back. This type of massage is the stuff of my dreams

I very much enjoy ALL of your videos! I will be done with my massage therapy classes in 5 weeks! AHH! The painting videos are so helpful to actually SEE on a human body, in plain view. I'm thinking of doing this myself. I'm a visual learner as I feel most body workers can be.
THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR TIME AND SHARING YOUR KNOWELDGE!

Man o man... massaging them calf muscles hurt!!! Yikes... it looks painful but relieving at the same time.... your work is amazing!

[zombienation]

I want this lady to massage my calf muscles. That looks like it would really help with my constantly tight muscles from running.
