Develop your skills to assess and recognise signs and symptoms of common sports injuries and develop effective treatment options. Understand principals of training and how they effect the muscular and skeletal systems of the body.

TRIGGER POINT THERAPY

The Trigger Point Therapy Course is designed for you to enhance and refine your palpation skills. You will learn how to locate and treat trigger points in the skeletal muscles and in the muscle's fascia. Trigger Point Therapy can be easily incorporated into your treatment programs, especially your neck, shoulder and lower back routines.

Trigger points are located through palpation (ie. by touch). You will learn and understand the predictable pain patterns of active trigger points and the role of latent trigger points in muscle dysfunction as well as detect the perpetuating factors which activate trigger points.
Adding trigger point therapy as part of your treatment skills will increase your own knowledge of the body's muscular system, can speed up your clients recovery time and gain their confidence.

LYMPHATIC MASSAGE

The lymphatic system is the major drainage system of the body. It plays a key role in the surveillance and defense of the body, it functions in immune response, it assists in the maintenance of fluid balance by draining fluid from the tissues, and returning vital substances back to the blood stream.

In this hands-on course you will learn skills to assist the functioning of this vital system, and skills to enhance your clients treatments. You will gain knowledge of the functions of the Lymphatic System, diseases and effects of poor Lymphatic performance and contraindications. To assist your clients' sense of wellbeing and recovery you will gain competency in various techniques.
