Manual therapists frequently spend most of their efforts working on the dorsal surfaces of the body: the back, neck, and posterior lower extremities. In many cases, the soft-tissue patterns that influence spinal alignment are shaped by transverse bands of myofascial holding around the spinal axis and torso. More profound and lasting resolution of patient complaints can result from working with the anterior aspect of the body to release the chronic holding patterns. In this workshop, participants will learn the power of assessing and treating from a 360-degree perspective.
