Fibromyalgia is a chronic syndrome, characterised by widespread body pain and pain at specific tender points. Patients can also exhibit a range of other symptoms including fatigue, sleep disturbance, muscle soreness and headache. Join Steven Goldstein (ACNM lecturer) to distinguish how best we can manage clients suffering from this debilitating condition in line with the latest evidence-based research supporting the use of massage.

Steven Goldstein explores sacroiliac joint dysfunction & low back pain. We look at how to create a management plan based on this format, what assessment and special tests to form a working diagnosis, and utilize techniques drawn from direct and indirect myofascial release methods IFR/MFR, positional release technique PRT, muscle energy technique MET, mobilization techniques for the lumbar spine, pelvis and hip, trigger point and deep tissue massage.
