Event Summary

This 6-day training program prepares participants to teach a 3-day introductory MER workshop, focusing on the lower back, neck, and thorax. Ideal for those seeking to deepen their expertise in myofascial bodywork, the training combines foundational theory, practical skills, and hands-on techniques. Graduates will be equipped to teach a basic MER session and guide others in addressing pain and tension in these areas. This program is designed exclusively for certified MER practitioners.

The full curriculum consists of 6 hours of online classes and 6 days of in-person training, totaling 65 hours.
