SPECIFIC SOFT TISSUE MOBILISATION (SSTM) - LOWER LIMB

MR D GLENN HUNTER MSc MCSP SRP CertEd

One and half day workshop

Specific soft tissue mobilisation is an approach to the management of soft tissue dysfunction that integrates current knowledge regarding anatomy, biornechanics and the healing process. The focus is on understanding the importance of progressively loading tissues during the healing process, on exploring practical methods of treatment application and on understanding and justifying the scientific rationale behind this approach. The balance of the course is 40% theory and 60% practical.
