and ongoing pain from accident, injury or emotional trauma.
These versatile skills can be used as a stand -alone technique or incorporated into your existing bodywork practice.
This practical workshop will explore the major approaches to working with fascia including direct methods derived from Rolfing/ structural integration and indirect methods.
Suitable for all manual therapists including osteopaths, physios, chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists.
