“The training the last couple of days has been the highlight of my continuing education since I’ve been a massage therapist…I would highly recommend any of John’s classes. He is a phenomenal instructor.”
Muscle Balancing and Joint Stabilization
Using Targeted Muscle Testing, Quick Self Fixes, and Connective Tissue Stretches
This course draws upon extensive research to provide tools you can use to quickly find and strengthen weak muscles and tendons around the joints – for yourself and for your clients. Here’s how the Muscle Balancing techniques work:
Tight fascia (or connective tissue) can often cause joint fixations that disrupt blood flow, lymphatic flow, and/or nerve conduction that’s necessary for muscle-tendon strength around the joints. When portions of the muscles and their tendons are weak, they tend to go dormant to protect against injury, thereby conserving resources.
The Muscle Balancing techniques wake up these ‘sleeping’ muscles and make them instantly strong. I have seen this with my own eyes hundreds of times. You will see it for yourself right away in this course.
Even someone who appears strong – like weight lifters, body builders, other athletes – will often test weak around certain joints. Sometimes, muscles become chronically tight because they’re compensating for weakness in other muscle-tendon units. Exercise doesn’t always strengthen tight muscle-tendon units due to fascial restrictions around the joints. The Quick Self Fixes do.
We bodyworkers often do a great job of loosening up tight muscles and releasing fascial restrictions, when we have the right tools (i.e. Direct-Indirect Technique™). However, if the associated joint has some weakness and/or restriction, the other muscles and fascia around it often have to compensate, and they will tend to tighten up again very quickly. This is sometimes the pattern of a person who feels relief from a session for a short period of time before they start hurting again soon afterwards.
These Muscle Balancing and Joint Stabilization techniques can help you increase vitality, improve physical and athletic performance, prevent injury, assist in the healing of existing injuries, resolve pain, slow the development of arthritis pain, and increase overall physical comfort.
This course can help you the therapist maintain strength and well-being while you do your work – or any other activities. And it can help your clients, too! Just about everyone can benefit from learning and using these tools regularly.
