On November 6, Balance Massage School is hosting Caitlin Perry Caitlin Perry | Abdominal Massage Continuing Education 🌟 for a day of learning and practicing.
In the morning (9-12) she will be leading a workshop exploring Abdominal Massage for Endometriosis. As an abdominal massage teacher, Caitlin gets this question all the time: what techniques can we use with our clients with endo?
Caitlin emphasizes that it’s less about technique and more about connection and compassion. By reading the signals of the body, and having an understanding of what the science is saying and what our friends with this disease are experiencing, we can be a solid part of their healing support system.
We’ll discuss:
🐉the current scientific understanding of endometriosis
🐉emerging theories (women’s health research is behind but trying to catch up)
🐉who it affects, where it shows up in the body, what it’s like to have it.
🐉the 4 stages
And we will learn:
❤️🩹ways to work with the abdomen to support people with endometriosis
❤️🩹techniques I find myself coming back to again and again with my endo clients.
❤️🩹How to connect and tune into their needs so we’re reading the body not the diagnosis.
During the afternoon (1-4pm) Caitlin will be running an Abdominal Massage Student Clinic for alumni of her Abdominal Massage Intensive to be able to practice their skills with observation and feedback. If you have not yet learned with Caitlin but feel ready and interested in practicing Abdominal Massage in a clinical setting, reach out to Caitlin at [email protected] so you can talk about whether this would be a good fit.
The cost for the morning is $50 and $100 for the whole day.
Any of my health and wellness entrepreneurs feel me?

I’ve been teaching in person in Vermont for 5 years now and have had many people ask for an online version. This class goes deep! With engaging lectures and over 20 technique videos, you will learn way more than surface advice.
We will explore the abdomen from a Chinese Medicine lens and ground our techniques with a thorough understanding of western abdominal anatomy.
Techniques we will learn are from East Asian bodywork styles, as well as Swedish, Mayan, and Q’ero shamanic healing.
But we go beyond the technique involved to tune into your intuition and your connection with your clients.
I can’t wait and hope to see you there!
Depth in abdominal massage is super important. The abdomen tenses and guards much more easily when it senses threat. Its job is to protect your vital organs!
That’s why I teach so much on depth, and “meeting the qi”, or meeting their point of tension, point of elasticity. There are different ways to describe it but it’s a sensation like you are beginning to meet a soft wall.
And when you meet that wall, all you want to do it that: meet it.
Don’t try to push into it to see if it will budge. Don’t try to push past it. Just notice where it is and that’s the level where you will work.
The depth of this wall can change millimeter by millimeter so it’s our job as abdominal massage therapists to constantly be adjusting depth. To ride smoothly over these changes rather than plow through them.
This is the nuance we get into in the Abdominal Massage Intensive, AND why I’ll have so much video footage, some of me making corrections with students, for the Online Abdominal Massage Intensive which will be launching in the next couple of weeks.
If you want to join the growing number of therapists (and other health and wellness providers!) learning abdominal massage, join my “pre-registration” email list for the online intensive.

Hope to see you there! Much love,

The power of abdominal massage goes beyond digestion and womb healing. It ignites this deeper knowing, deep wisdom.
It allows people to feel whole again, to feel like themselves again.
Allowing you to feel centered and grounded. Like you can feel the earth holding you.
And I don’t just say these things because they sound flowery and profound. These are comments I get all the time after a session.
If you want to join a growing number of massage therapists who are learning to give safe, effective, and connected abdominal massage from someone who has been doing it for over a decade, you’re in the right place.
The online abdominal massage intensive is opening up soon. I would love to have you there 💜
You got it! Abdominal Massage! My name is Caitlin and I’ve been practicing abdominal massage for 11 years and teaching for 5.
What do you want to learn? What kinds of clients come to see you often? Do you get a lot of women with endo? People with shoulder pain but also offhandedly mention their digestion discomfort? Hip pain? Low back pain? It can all be tied to abdominal restrictions.
I share some fun stuff here but if you want to become a real confident and effective massage therapist who seamlessly integrates abdominal work, I am finishing an online Abdominal Massage Course just for you.
