Fascial Manipulation® Level 2 by Stecco

Expand Your Knowledge of Fascial Manipulation and Improve Your Patient Outcomes

The Fascial Manipulation Level 2 Course is a comprehensive course that teaches participants how to expand their understanding of the biomechanical model to treat patients with multi-segmental dysfunctions more efficiently. The course is taught in two parts, FM-2a and FM-2b, and each part is three days long.

In FM-2a, participants will focus on the role of Centers of Fusion as part of the biomechanical model and the formation of Myofascial Diagonals. They will also learn about elements of comparative anatomy studies to assist the evaluation of adaptive compensations within the fascial system, and the involvement of fascia in motor control. The Assessment Chart used in Fascial Manipulation® Level 1 will be updated with new elements.

In FM-2b, participants will learn about Myofascial Spirals to complete understanding of complex movement patterns and mechanisms. They will also learn about the latest fascial research projects, and will have numerous opportunities to practice treatment demonstrations and hands-on skills. An emphasis will be placed on comparative assessment of Centers of Coordination and Centers of Fusion, Assessment Chart analysis, clinical reasoning, hands-on skills, and treatment strategies.

What is Fascial Manipulation (FM)?

Fascial Manipulation (FM) is a manual therapy technique that focuses on the deep fascia, a three-dimensional web of connective tissue that surrounds and supports all of the structures in the body. FM practitioners use a variety of techniques, including deep tissue massage, stretching, and mobilization, to release fascial restrictions and improve movement, posture, and circulation.

Fascial Manipulation Level 1 vs. Level 2

Level 1

• Focuses on the basics of fascial manipulation, including anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics.
• Teaches students how to assess for fascial dysfunction and how to perform basic fascial manipulation techniques.
• Is a prerequisite for Level 2.

Level 2

• Builds on the foundation of Level 1 and teaches students more advanced concepts of fascial manipulation, including the role of retinacula in proprioception and pain, the latest fascial research projects, and advanced fascial manipulation techniques.
• Is designed for healthcare professionals who are looking to improve their skills in the assessment and treatment of fascial dysfunction at a deeper level.

Overall, Level 1 is a good introduction to fascial manipulation for healthcare professionals who are new to this approach. Level 2 is a more advanced course that is designed for healthcare professionals who want to learn more about fascial manipulation and how to use it to treat patients with a wider range of conditions.
