Move Better, Feel Better: A Movement-Based Approach to Soft Tissue Mobilization for the Lower Body

Course Description: If you want to learn how a combination of soft tissue treatments can help your clients to feel and move better: this course is for you.  This evidence based approach, combines IASTM, Cupping and Kinesiology Taping by focusing on how we can stimulate the Central Nervous System (CNS) to reduce pain and enhance mobility. This comprehensive treatment philosophy is movement-focused we don’t treat the individual muscle, or the fascia, or the joints, but we make overall movement of the affected body part more efficient to allow the body to heal and to become more resilient: “Move Better, Feel Better”  Take your Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) -techniques to the next level by incorporating movement. Understand how Cupping Therapy (CT) is different than all other manual techniques, and how it supports healing, and recovery. Learn how Kinesiology Taping (KT) is used to influence the fascia and underlying neural tissues to cause functional changes in both the local tissue as well as the Central Nervous System (CNS). KT is the ideal complement to soft tissue treatments like IASTM and Cupping.  Understanding how pain works and being able to educate your clients on how to manage their pain is critical to patient outcomes. This course uses principles of the BPS model and Pain Scienced Education as a roadmap to make your treatments even more effective. This treatment approach does not just look at the area of pain, but considers the entire person, and treats the entire dynamic chain that is affected.
