DIT to Effectively Relieve Low Back Pain
This class will focus on specific Direct and Indirect Techniques to relieve low back issues. You will learn how to use the DIT techniques to treat Low Back pain, hip and pelvis soreness, tight Quadratus Lumborum, medial rotators (Gluteus Medius, Minimus, and TFL), lateral rotators (Piriformis and the rest of the Deep 6), and the IlioPsoas muscles. You will identify and treat muscle and fascial compensation patterns – what pattern is presenting, and what’s the best technique to use.
Many clients with herniated discs, sciatica, and other low back and hip problems have benefited from these techniques. Nearly all experience profound relief. Some have been able to avoid more invasive treatments, including surgery, and return to the activities and work they love.
In this class, you will learn real tools for the low back that you can use right away in your practice to maximize the effectiveness of your work while minimizing stress on your body. DIT for low back combines effective myofascial, neuromuscular, and cranial-sacral techniques to relieve tight muscles and fascia. You will learn both deep and gentle DIT techniques that work very well together.
In addition, we will explore the muscle and fascial anatomy of the low back, common compensation patterns, and trigger point referral patterns, demonstrating how these can be relieved using DIT techniques.
“If you have not taken one of John Ray’s CEU’s then you are missing out. Excellent instructor and lots of great techniques. I took DIT for legs, hips, and back, and I absolutely LOVED the class. I have used it in every massage since.” ~ Crystal
The DIT-Low Back class can be taken on its own or combined with DIT-Legs and DIT-Upper Back for even greater results.
