Teaching Advanced Soft Tissue Techniques involves the identification of specific dysfunctions and weaknesses commonly located within the musculoskeletal system. Additionally, understanding the method for utilizing advanced soft tissue techniques to restore function to patients is crucial.
Who John Gibbons is can be traced back to the creation of the Body Master Method Diploma. With years of experience, he has been educating post-graduate professionals globally, guiding them to become experts in their respective fields. The courses are constructed based on his accumulated knowledge as a writer, osteopath, researcher, and lecturer.
In this course, John Gibbons demonstrates his extensive expertise. Initially, he acquaints you with various soft tissue methods such as myofascial release, soft tissue release, trigger point therapy, muscle energy techniques, and positional release. Following this understanding, he leads you through a ‘soft tissue journey,’ combining theoretical and practical demonstrations that involve functional testing procedures for postural muscles prone to chronic tightness and dysfunction. You will also gain insight into how to apply specific techniques to rectify these dysfunctional muscles, restoring normality and reducing pain.
