Did you know an IBT case study was published in a scientific journal?

The International Journal of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork and the Massage Therapy Foundation have a Case Study Poster Contest every year at the AMTA Convention. LMTs are encouraged to submit interesting case studies that move the field of soft tissue care forward.

These are peer reviewed and if approved/accepted the LMT gets to have their poster presented at the convention and have their case study published in the International Journal of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork!

There aren’t many offerings in the industry for true scientific observation and quantification of this work so this opportunity was extremely valuable.

Open House Youth Sports Therapy Demonstration:

This gave coaches, parents, and athletes the opportunity to experience an IBT Youth Sports Therapy session in real time.

Every IBT Youth Sports Therapy session goes as follows:

1. Your child is given a body zone chart for us to review where we will and won’t be applying soft tissue therapy.

2. Your child explains to their Biomechanic what discomfort, pain, tension etc they are experiencing.

3. Based on this report, your Biomechanic explain which protocol they will be utilizing, and why. They also explain what muscles are involved with this protocol and why it is important we affect them.

4. Your child is given full autonomy to give consent to treatment and can rescind this consent if they ever feel uncomfortable during the session.

5. The parent/guardian is required to stay for each session. Whether it is the 1st, or 100th session, adult supervision is always required.

6. During the session, we provide explanations of their muscular imbalance in order to begin educating your athlete on proper maintenance of their muscular system.

7. When the session is completed, we seek feedback sought in order to encourage further communication from your athlete and to assess results from the protocol applied.
