Functional Soft Tissue Transformation (online)

Course overview

Functional Soft Tissue Transformation (FSTT) is a comprehensive movement testing and treating process for movement professionals that centers on the individuality of each client. The FSTT course education level is beginner to intermediate. Target audience is physical therapists and those whose expertise and qualifications allow them to do soft tissue manipulation. FSTT takes a different approach from traditional structure-based protocols. It is individually context dependent. Structure is respected, yet individual function is the driver of the process. The intention of the FSTT process is NOT to train a practitioner to fix parts or pathologies ... Instead, to identify and improve dysfunction and create better efficiency in movement/function... there Is a BIG DIFFERENCE Manual applications shared in FSTT are simply mechanical loads that are applied to the tissues to create positive adaptation in movement/function. Utilizing the Global / Local / Global spectrum method, learn how to identify abnormal tensions in the body, select appropriate loading for testing and treating, create a plan to improve energy efficient movement integrity. Combining the principles of Applied Functional Science with your existing skill sets and experience, learn how to take an individualized approach to further enhancing client function. Whether you are just starting on your journey of Applied Functional Science or are looking to continue growing, FSTT will provide a new experience by sharing a principle-based process to understand for whom and what type of manual loading is safe and appropriate with the intention of improved function.
