Testimonials
"The Fascial Manipulation Workshop is a unique way to look at soft tissue. It is based on anatomical dissections, textbooks of Luigi, Carla and Antonio Stecco, class material and illustrations, and the excellent teaching team of Antonio Stecco, MD and Warren Hammer, DC. It all adds up to an excellent, clinically useful course."

"Fascial Manipulation (FM) takes your current myofascial treatment tools and sharpens them with the emerging research on the anatomy and physiology of the fascia. FM provides a bridge between the meridians of Chinese medicine, trigger point therapies, functional anatomy sequences and cross fiber friction. Effects are long lasting and may be used in acute, subacute and performance-oriented populations. Combined with an understanding of functional movement assessment and exercise prescription, this makes a practitioner the "go-to" source in the community for pain relief, functional restoration and performance. This work represents the first wave on the beach of the new rising tide of evidence-based, conservative manual therapies."

"Fascial Manipulation brings not only another interesting method of soft tissue treatment, but gives a structured outline on how to evaluate the kinetic chain associated with musculoskeletal disorders. It is also refreshing to see a technique backed by important research and validation! My thanks to Warren for bringing the Stecco family material to the U.S."

"What an incredible course! This was by far the best time and $ I have spent on a practical seminar in years. The science and rationale of fascial manipulation has solidified and further validated the importance of evaluating and treating the myofascial system within the chiropractic paradigm."

"Thank you for the FM seminar last weekend in Newark, NJ. I have begun utilizing the procedure and have already had results far and away exceeding all other techniques I have practiced. In fact, I have been treating a DMD with severe chronic cervical and right shoulder pain as well as what he describes as "fasciculations" in his bilateral hands. Symptoms had previously been refractory to other forms of conservative treatment.
"He stated the symptoms had been ongoing for 15 years and was exacerbated by RT LA of the CL and TH as well as ER of the HU. Motion verification reveals restricted ROM in these areas as well. Palpation reveals soft tissue crepitations and tenderness in the soft tissue over the CCs of the AN CL Rt, RE CU Rt and RE CL Lt. Treatment was immed. initiated using the FM on CCs of the AN CL on the right, RE CU on the right and RE CL on the left. He reported immed relief of the pain; motion verification was consistent.
"On F/u 4 days later, he said the pain symptoms were better then 80% reduced and the "fasciculations" were significantly reduced. Thank you, again, for bringing this revolutionary technique to our field. "
