About the course

This 1-day course has been designed for acupuncturists with an interest in acute or chronic Musculo-skeletal conditions and sports injuries.

It will explore the amazing the link between the fascia and the Muscle / Sinew channels of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and how they link in with western musculoskeltal diagnosis.

You will be shown how to design and develop further, with clinical reasoning, treatment plans incorporating this link, and there will be practical needling session based on case studies, and will include a review of the research findings on the anatomy and functions of the fascia in the body.
