Stretching and Flexibility Online

Course overview

This dynamic theoretical and hands-on course introduces in depth logical stretching and flexibility protocols to increase flexibility, body-awareness, and neuromuscular control. This course is approximately 20% theory and 80% hands on. During the theoretical introduction the neurophysiology of stretching and flexibility training is expanded and explained so that you understand the underpinning theoretical science- this level of understanding allows us to educate our clients. Common postural syndromes, rest postures and fundamental mobility and stability will be assessed; this gives the therapist a blue print of flexibility and movement capabilities of the client. This is key in order to treat, develop immediate and ongoing treatment protocols. These protocols utilize neurological laws based on Muscle Energy Techniques (MET) to create immediate and long last results. Systematic Stretching and Flexibility protocols are used that utilize specific muscle energy techniques to restore range of motion of the soft tissues. By using specific METs, this will allow for immediate results that last! Releasing muscles and surrounding fascia is one component of long lasting change. The soft connective tissues need to be re-trained and re-educated to optimally function in this new lengthened range of motion. Discover how to devise treatments plans based on postural traits and by using simple repeatable movement analysis that requires zero equipment and takes under 60 seconds to perform.
