FMT RockPods
By: National University of Health Sciences

Course Description

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

FMT RockPods Certification introduces the concept of skin/fascial decompression to help improve tissue mobility, enhance movement and modulate pain with the use of myofascial cups. This course will cover the anatomical, physiological and neurological effects of myofascial cupping on connective tissue gliding, tissue traction and tissue decompression. FMT RockPods Certification will introduce and discuss skin and fascial decompression concepts and present evaluation techniques for the dermal and fascial systems.

Interventions using myofascial cupping will be reviewed and informed by current research, the interventions will be integrated into current rehabilitation and performance concepts.

This course is intended for performance professionals and therapists with a basic understanding of soft tissue techniques. Each participant will keep their RockPods, RockBand Flex, and RockTape after this course.

The Functional Movement Training (FMT) Certification Series are presented by industry leading experts in movement, assessment and rehabilitation.


EDUCATIONAL LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR FMT ROCKPODS:

After this course the participant will be able to:

1. Define, understand and integrate the myofascial sequencing model

2. Discover and explore neuroanatomy of the dermal & fascial subsystem

3. Recognize and demonstrate a novel skin/fascial/movement screening process

4. Describe and interpret research as it relates to connective tissue gliding, pain modulation, and movement therapies.

5. Define, practice, and integrate myofascial cupping techniques related to soft tissue pathology

6. Practice cupping techniques for tension/decompression effects, directionality, external cueing of movement and graded levels of pressure

7. Compare, contrast and perform various methods of performance and rehabilitative treatment techniques with RockPods.
