Motor Vehicle Accident Massage

Medical Massage Essentials: MVA Treatment

Being able to properly treat a motor vehicle accident injury is crucial for any medical massage therapist as it is so common.

This is a special area of interest for me as I’ve been treating MVA injuries for my whole massage career, as my first job was in a medical massage clinic. This class is designed to enhance your treatment of someone who has been in an MVA and give you the confidence to help them recover. While a lot of the techniques will focus on the neck, most motor vehicle injuries involve areas across the whole body so we’ll also discuss full body implications and work on the shoulders, clavicle, diaphragm, obliques, iliopsoas, hips, and lower leg.  We will also cover the healing phases following an MVA, treatment arc and timelines, medical charting and billing, and the trauma caused by a car accident.

Eddy Pace, LMT Instructor in Spokane

Hello! I'm Eddy Pace, and I've been a licensed massage therapist in WA state for over 15 years, and a certified personal trainer through NASM for 7 years. I've practiced massage therapy full time for most of that time. I'm currently enrolled in a Masters of Science in Kinesiology through A.T. Still University. I'm also a musician, an avid music lover, and I love my family.

Ever since I graduated from massage school, I've always been most interested in medical and orthopedic massage, and helping people minimize pain and recover from injuries. Taking continuing education classes is one of my favorite things, and over the years, I've taken many. I also love to watch technique videos and study books on both anatomy and massage therapy techniques and theory.

I'm very passionate about mentoring newer therapists and supporting my colleagues. I was born and raised in Spokane Valley, so I'm proud to serve our Spokane community and bring quality education to our therapists.
