Description

The secret to unlocking low back pain is knowing where to start

Low back pain can be a complex issue to work on because the cause of the pain isn't always obvious. The culprit could be low back vertebrae or musculature, tight glutes, a sticky SI joint, a tight psoas, or a number of other potential issues that we can address. Getting a better idea of the source will make your work much more efficient and effective. Nothing’s worse than spending a whole session chasing potential solutions and getting nowhere. So how do you eliminate the guesswork?

You must learn how to properly palpate the tissue and assess the structures

No matter how good you are or how hard you work, without the right skills, these challenging issues will continue to evade you. Humans are unique and varied. What works for one client may not necessarily work for another. You need to have the tools to be able to adapt to what's happening in the client standing right in front of you. What I’ve found is that understanding how to assess the low back/pelvis and how to palpate the tissue for tension give you the information necessary to create a unique session based on each individual client’s needs.

These techniques have been a keystone to the success of my private practice.

It really gets me when I see a skillful practitioner fail to get their clients out of pain when all they needed were some specific techniques and spinal mechanics knowledge. This is exactly why I put together this online course, just for you, to help you help your clients.
