I have just booked on the FAKTR course which is to be held in May 2012 in Melbourne. It is a technique used to treat soft tissue and fascial issues with the use of instruments. I have already been using a variety of tools for the treatment of various soft tissue complaints I.e. tight quads, itb, trigger points in muscles, Tendonopathies etc that often present with overuse injuries. These techniques combined with osteopathic manual techniques have helped greatly in reducing ones pain, tightness and correcting any underlying musculoskeletal imbalance. Combine this with the right corrective exercise strategies and you can do a lot to prevent further recurrence. Check out more by going to http://www.faktr.com/.
