Course Description:

Welcome to the first step in your journey towards becoming a certified Clinical Massage Therapist (CMT). This groundbreaking Level 1 course, taught by a renowned local doctor and author of "Solving Pain," is designed to revolutionize your approach to treating musculoskeletal pain. This course is designed to show you how to achieve long-term results for your treatment plans.

In this intensive module, you will delve deep into the art and science of identifying the root causes of musculoskeletal pain. This course isn't just about treating symptoms; it's about understanding why they are present so that you can create a real solution for your patient. You will move beyond the conventional approach of chasing pain and doing spot treatments on local areas of pain. Instead, you will be learning to conduct thorough movement pattern evaluations and uncover the underlying issues that lead to discomfort, dysfunctions, and damaged tissue.
