This unique seminar goes far beyond the traditional clinical sports massage
training by addressing all of the common medical and orthopedic conditions
found in most clients. Orthopedic Massage involves therapeutic
assessment, manipulation and movement of locomotor soft tissues to reduce
or eliminate pain and dysfunction. A unique multidisciplinary approach
is utilized to restore structural balance throughout the body, which will
allow you to focus on the prevention and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal
dysfunctions, chronic pain and sports injuries. The primary modalities
taught include functional assessment, myofascial release, neuromuscular
therapy, scar tissue mobilization techniques, P.N.F. stretching, neuromuscular
re-education, strengthening, and specific client home care protocols.
The combination of these techniques will allow you to obtain immediate
and permanent results in even the most challenging and complicated clients.
