Course Description:

Join us for an immersive journey into the world of myofascial release and Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM) at our dynamic two-day live seminar. Delve deep into understanding the intricate web of fascia, unravel the mysteries of trigger points, and master the art of effective clinical techniques.

What to Expect:

  • Exploration of Fascia: Gain insight into the foundation and function of fascia, decipher active and latent trigger points, and unravel common referral pain patterns.
  • Hands-On Practice: Dive into practical sessions where you’ll identify myofascial release foundations and master clinical techniques for the cervical, shoulder, thoracic, lumbar spine, hip, knee, and ankle.
  • IASTM Mastery: Explore Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM) including precautions, contraindications, and effective strokes for both upper and lower body, all designed to complement your manual toolbox and save your hands.
  • Cutting-Edge Knowledge: Stay ahead with insights from the latest research, interpreting mechanical and physiological responses of IASTM, and understanding its neurological impact.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Interpret the foundation and origin of IASTM and its clinical relevance from multiple sources.
  • Apply advanced techniques like the fanning stroke to address trigger points in the upper trapezius muscle.
  • Defend your choice of IASTM tool and treatment plan for specific clinical conditions.
  • Analyze mechanical and physiological responses of IASTM through engaging case studies.
  • Understand the nuances between fascial restrictions and muscle tightness.
  • Justify your IASTM tool selection based on trigger point presence in therapy evaluations.

Who Should Attend:

This seminar is tailored for healthcare professionals seeking to elevate their practice with cutting-edge myofascial release and IASTM techniques. Whether you’re a seasoned therapist or a budding practitioner, this seminar promises to equip you with a fresh arsenal of skills ready to be applied the very next day.
