This course will introduce you to IASTM and help you to select specific tools, techniques and treatment plans for clinical conditions, and identify indications and contraindications of IASTM. You will be able to explain the reasoning behind IASTM and compare mechanical and physiological responses of IASTM. You will also learn the difference between a fascial restriction and muscle tightness and how to identify common fascial restrictions.There is also information to help you differentiate between similar conditions and to differentiate between active and latent trigger points.
The joint assessment course will not only develop joint assessment skills, in order to determine where an injury originates rather than simply treating where the pain is, but it will also introduce some orthopaedic tests which can be used as part of the assessment to gain further insight into the root of injuries.
