I’m the creator of the Bodymaster Method® Diploma. I’ve years of experience lecturing post-graduate professionals worldwide to become the ‘go-to’ therapist in their area. My courses are built on everything I have learned as an osteopath, writer, researcher and lecturer. The Bodymaster method® is different from what you learned at university. At university, you are taught to look at the site of pain, possibly perform hands-on therapy, and load the tissue with eccentric loading. The Bodymaster method® teaches you to look at your client as a whole person, not just the site of pain.
In this course, you’ll learn how to identify specific soft tissue dysfunction and weaknesses typically found within the musculoskeletal system and harness powerful advanced soft tissue techniques to restore function to your patients.
