“This course is designed for osteopaths who want to dive deeper into fascial integration. After an introduction to the fascial world, you will learn how to differentiate the lateral tube (the ISG-type) from the central tube (the SIG-type).
This course consists of a fascial assessment and the corresponding therapy in the parietal, visceral and cranial areas. In the techniques, patient and therapist form a team. While the therapist fixes certain areas, the patients perform small movements.
