F.I.T. course Level 1: Neck and Upper extremity
This is a very practical course in which you learn to examine and treat patients for myofascial issues in a new, very functional way. We use innovative techniques to treat trigger points and mobilize soft tissues. We’ll present the latest scientific research on fascia. You will get an extensive update about the role of fascia in movement and pathology/pain. The focus in this course will be on the neck and upper extremity. But with this knowledge and these skills you will look at all your patients in a new way!
