Our 96 hour, six course certification will help our students gain a deeper understanding of soft tissue injuries, how to treat them and what causes them. We will use the study of the anatomy to get a wider comprehension of the musculature and other structures that support movement to enhance the students understanding of how function is achieved in the body. In addition, our courses will be based heavily around learning assessment protocols. These classes will deepen your understanding of injury and pain and advance your confidence to provide treatment to your clients.
