Practically
You learn a soft tissue manipulation technique to deep muscular fascia, working from the pelvis to the toes. The course provides:
- A detailed approach for assessing, diagnosing, treating physical contributors of pain experience, or limited function, that may not lie in muscle, tendons, joints direct but in associated connective tissue, the Deep Fascia.

- May provide long lasting reduction or resolution of physical contributors behind a pain experience. And subsequently may resolve pain.
- May enable swifter progression to self management via exercise and movement.
- May reduce physical contributors enough to aid improve the psychosocial situation.
