Shoulder Anatomy Video
This shoulder anatomy video gives you the very basics you need for any kind of body work. Bones, Ligaments and muscles are pointed out in an easy to follow way.
I personally always had a hard time learning anatomy from a text book. It's great to have visuals, it's even better if you follow along and check on an actual shoulder (can be your own) at the same time.
For me there are two things that can be important about anatomy in connection with massage. First of all you might be able to understand the movements of a joint better, you might be able to see imbalanced muscles according to movement patterns, but mostly because it feels much better if you run strokes along the entire muscle than just a part of it.
The second point is important, because it has to do with the actual experience of a client. Nothing worse than a client that is unsatisfied, because they feel you didn't go all the way in terms of the length of the muscles. In many cases the client will not be able to verbalize that, but will just feel discontent and that might reflect badly on your reputation.
It's easy to combat that by generally working all the way to a joint (there are exceptions like the knee, the armpit).

Anatomy Videos: Connective Tissue
I will from now on also include informational videos about important aspects of theory of massage, because I think it is a great reminder for those who have learned that stuff a long time ago and need to refresh their memories, for those who study massage and for those who are just interested in how the body is built and works.
I start with two little videos about connective tissue:
1. The Anatomy of Connective Tissue
2. Three kinds of Cartilage
