Foundations in Myofascial Release

This enjoyable 15 hour, 2 day seminar will provide the therapy professional the ability to
effectively evaluate and treat a wide variety of conditions from a foundational base of
knowledge in Myofascial Release, including MyoMobilization™. You will begin to look
beyond the muscle, into the larger three-dimensional matrix of the fascia, changing your
view of how holding patterns within the fascia can produce far reaching dysfunction.
Learning to deeply feel into your client’s body and sensing what is holding them back is the
essence of this work. I will help you to be able to acquire this feel and use it to make
changes that you had not thought possible. You will leave this class equipped to make
immediate changes. You will also understand ways to incorporate Myofascial Release into
your current therapy regime and/or transition to a cash-based MFR practice.  This
Foundations Seminar is appropriate for all types of providers, treating all ages of clientele.
All that is required is a license to touch.

The basic science of Myofascial Release will be addressed in both seminars, both from a
traditional perspective as well as from newer research.  Those who have taken
Myofascial Release classes in the past will benefit both from the deepening of the
principles, as well as exposure to fresh ideas as to its applications. Whole body
considerations will be presented. This is an intensive hands-on seminar, with a thorough
grounding in the establishment of the feel of myofascial release at its core. Immediate
application of the techniques as they apply to the clinic will be provided.
