Soft Tissue Mobilization Course

Soft Tissue Release Training Workshop



November 28-29 – Sheridan College – Davis Campus

CEU’s: CATA: 6.0 (also accredited with most provincial massage therapy associations - see website for all accredited associations)

Cost: Students $255 + GST/Professionals $295.00 + GST (includes a color illustrated workshop manual, course certificate and all Power Point notes).

Course Description:

Soft Tissue Release Training is the “father” of all the recent “Release” techniques.

STR is a combination of Myofascial Release, Therapeutic Massage, and Active Assisted Stretching. The technique involves applying precise pressure during a specific stretch performed in multiple planes of movement. The result: fast and permanent reorganization of scar tissue, the targeted muscle(s) return to the proper resting length, muscle imbalances are corrected, associated pain is decreased or eliminated altogether, and muscle performance is improved.

This two-day practical hands-on workshop covers the entire body, without the need to recertify every year. After completing the workshop participants will have the confidence and skills to properly apply the techniques to their clients immediately.
