Course overview
This class has been designed for previous medical massage students who want more emphasis on understanding the concept of whole-body alignment and the role structural dysfunction plays in developing painful musculoskeletal problems. By observing and understanding these dysfunctions and imbalances, the therapist can obtain immediate results for the client with less strain on the therapist's body. We help fine-tune charting skills and physician reporting. Students will be provided with a business checklist and given feedback on their marketing material.

You will then learn specific techniques to immediately get results with minimal strain on you, the therapist.
