Cervical Spine Techniques and
Treatments Course
In this 1 day course you will learn various techniques to safely and effectively mobilize the vertebrae. Immobility of the vertebrae in the cervical spine leads to headaches, migraines, general neck and shoulder tension and even nausea.

Testimonials
I’ve taken several continuing education courses with Andre DeCairos, including Table Thai and most recently his Cervical Spine Techniques course, and I’ve been consistently impressed. His courses are extremely informative, well-structured, and highly practical, with techniques that translate directly into real clinical practice.
Andre has a relaxed, inclusive teaching style that makes even complex material easy to understand and apply. He creates a supportive learning environment where questions are encouraged and confidence grows naturally.
I always leave his courses feeling more skilled, more confident, and genuinely excited to integrate what I’ve learned into my work as an RMT. I highly recommend Andre’s training to any massage therapist looking for high-quality, clinically relevant continuing education.

Andre is an incredible Teacher! Utilizing everything I learned from his course *Advanced Cervical Spine Mobilizations * was powerful. He's a very patient and caring instructor, the way you perform the technique is of utmost importance.
​
I had a client who was experiencing neck twitching and neck spasms after lifting heavy boxes from work. I ended up utilizing the techniques learned from his course. After only 20 minutes of treatment he got off the table and stated he was "Back in business."
​​
His neck motion was restored, from not being able to turn his head to completely turning his head fully right after. And the best part about it was the techniques utilize no oil.

Highly recommend attending any course by Andre DeCairos. I would have to say that attending his Cervical Spine Certification was one of the most meaningful milestones of my massage career. I had been praying to have further guidance to avoid becoming jaded and monotonous in my massage technique- I didn’t want to systematize and routine my massage style, but was falling into bad habits. I wanted to be more present, inspired and also prevent injury as a baseline- but didn’t know where to look until a friend recommended taking a course by Andre.
It was refreshing to learn from someone who didn’t see themselves or anyone as an expert- but that we are all equal partners in our journey of learning- I love his passion for his clients long- term health, and his relentless pursuit of the best practices that bring the most fruitful results for therapists and clients.​
​
I can’t wait to take all of his advanced massage continuing-ed courses!
I’m especially excited to learn from his upcoming Lumbar Spine Certification, Chi Nei Tsang ( Abdomen massage to aid in digestion and menstruation), and Thai Massage.
