In this course you’ll learn clinical reasoning skills so you can more effectively help your patients. The first 4 hours is online self-paced learning, you’ll cover the basics of pain science, pain classification, and how to conduct an excellent subjective exam.
The in-person part is 10 hours over 2 days where you learn hands on skills. You’ll learn assessment principles to understand what is meaningful to each individual patient and how to apply that to any task or movement. You’ll learn hands on assessment to determine where to treat. You’ll also learn treatment principles and techniques to help facilitate ease and movement for individual patients. The techniques I teach on this course are derived from my background in Structural Integration, Massage Therapy and Visceral Manipulation.
You’ll leave with an assessment framework that you can grow into and techniques that you can apply immediately.

It's made me think differently
The clinical reasoning skills that Mark is able to teach are skills that can be used well beyound the scope of just this course. The hands on pelvic techniques can be incorporated easily into practice, and combined with good clinical reasoning, be really effective for the client.
