Advanced Neuromuscular Techniques - In-Person - 16 CEs
This is a 2-day course that runs from 9am to 5pm.
Day 1: October 11th, 2026
Day 2: October 18th, 2026
This course integrates neuromuscular therapy (NMT) with orthopedic assessment and clinical reasoning. Participants will study common musculoskeletal conditions, learn how to differentiate pain patterns, and apply targeted NMT strategies to address dysfunction safely and effectively within massage therapy scope of practice.
Therapists will leave with stronger assessment skills, improved treatment sequencing, and greater confidence working with complex pain presentations.
Day 1
Students will have a chance to discuss how their practice has evolved by adding Connective Tissue Techniques into their clinical sequences. We will review topics covered in Intro to Neuromuscular Techniques for Trigger Point Therapy and Intro to Neuromuscular Techniques for Wellness and Relaxation and move forward into discussing how these techniques can be used to address common orthopedic conditions. Lecture topics will include orthopedic pathologies, with discussion on the risks, benefits, accommodations, and application of massage for each. There will be live demonstrations and hands-on practice as we work through sample sequences of the conditions discussed.
Day 2
The class will review topics covered in Day 1 and continue the live demonstrations and hands-on practice of all techniques and sequences.
Coaching on technical application and proper body mechanics is major part of Jennifer Carlson's wheelhouse. You can be sure that you are in good hands with Jen and will be guided in the right direction for a successful and lengthy career.
Learning Objectives:
Perform orthopedic-informed neuromuscular assessments
Differentiate muscular vs joint-related dysfunction
Apply NMT techniques safely for common orthopedic conditions
Create structured treatment plans based on presentation
Reassess and modify interventions clinically
Work confidently within massage therapy scope
