- **Event Name**: Fascia-Informed Chronic Pain Treatment
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 08:30 am – Sat, 28 Feb, 2026 at 04:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Course Overview
This 8-hour course is designed for bodyworkers seeking to develop a fascia-informed approach to clinical reasoning and treatment planning when working with clients experiencing persistent and chronic pain.

Chronic pain presentations are increasingly common in clinical practice and often involve complex interactions between the fascia and all they systems it supports, psychosocial stressors, and past injury or trauma. This course provides practitioners with an fascia-informed framework to better understand these interactions and to adapt hands-on care accordingly, within each therapist’s scope of practice.

The course emphasizes clinical observation, assessment, treatment tolerance, and client-centred progression, through a fascial lens to facilitate safe and effective care while minimizing post-treatment symptom flare-ups.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
* Describe key fascial mechanisms involved in chronic pain and pain sensitization
* Recognize common myofascial, physiological, and reactionary responses observed in clients with persistent pain
* Understand how stress and trauma exposure may influence pain perception and tissue reactivity, without diagnosing psychological conditions
* Apply a fascia-informed assessment approach appropriate to clinical practice for clients with chronic pain presentations
* Modify pressure, timing, positioning, and session structure to reduce the risk of symptom exacerbation
* Integrate course concepts into clinical practice immediately through safe, scope-appropriate treatment planning

Course Content

Topics covered include:
* Overview of chronic pain from a myofascial perspective
* Pain sensitization and its relevance to manual therapy tolerance
* Tissue reactivity, guarding patterns, and client presentation in persistent pain conditions
* Considerations related to trauma exposure and stress as they affect the nervous system and myofascial system
* Assessment strategies for therapists working with complex pain presentations
* Clinical decision-making: adapting treatment approach, pressure, and session progression
* Communicating with chronic pain clients to support safety, trust, and informed consent

Fascia-Informed Focus

This course draws on current research in fascia science, neurophysiology, and manual therapy, including concepts widely recognized in rehabilitation literature. Emphasis is placed on applying fascia-informed principles to hands-on practice, rather than introducing proprietary techniques.
