About Anterior Fascial Connections Bodywork

As a Licensed Massage Therapist, you already have a solid understanding of anatomy relevant to massage therapy. You are familiar with palpation and know how to care for another human being. At AFCB, we invite you to explore the body through a different lens. Instead of asking, “Where does it hurt?” we encourage you to ask, “Where is the body communicating from?” This small shift in perspective changes everything. 

Throughout this course, you'll encounter some sequence names that may sound a bit unusual, like Funny Faces, Chicken Wing, High Seatbelt, and Popeye Shake. Yes, we really chose those names, and guess what? People remember them! Our goal has never been to dazzle students with complicated terminology; rather, we aim to help you remember what your hands are feeling during hands-on bodywork techniques. 

Massage therapists are wonderfully creative individuals who learn by doing, moving, laughing, and experiencing. Some of the most profound clinical changes occur when both the practitioner and client participate in therapy and feel comfortable enough to be a little silly together. 

Throughout this course, we encourage you to remain curious. Observe more than you assume, ask questions, and trust your hands. And remember, your client is never just receiving treatment; they are actively participating in the therapeutic process. 

Welcome to AFCB. We’re excited to learn and grow with you.
