MDRT

MDRT is an integrative approach to bodywork by incorporating various modalities into fluid techniques Passive & Active ROM, Strain/Counterstrain,

Using our collective experiences, we focus on enhancing our innate ability to heal through a small class setting consisting of only three therapists. This work builds upon a Myofascial (MFR) foundation with elements of Thai, Neuromuscular (NMT), Swedish, Deep Tissue, and Trigger Point techniques.

Building my famous blue binders and setting up for a weekend of the newest MDRT class: Pstop Pskipping the Psoas & Cheating the Chest! This course is designed to approach the Iliopsoas bundle and the pecs in ways which respect the intimacy of the space, directly manipulate tissue when we can, indirectly take care of this sensitive area when we can’t, and build the confidence to add into any other routine or bodywork you already practice!

I’m looking ahead to 2026 and am now taking requests to visit rural Iowa. Let me know where you’d love to see an MDRT class offered next summer!

Just a reminder that you might be using the right tools the wrong way. Sometimes to solve an issue, we must get creative and repurpose that which is “normal” to make sense in our situation.

Rehabbing my knee from injury these past couple months has given me the opportunity to practice the essence of MDRT in the real world and apply it to body mechanics and positions to carry on pain-free!

I’m about to release my Fall/Winter schedule of classes so keep an eye out!

Exciting news, friends! My FOURTH class is now NCBTMB-approved! Which means I’m looking at the second half of this year for training dates! This is a single day class which doesn’t require the pre-requisite of attending my MDRT: Intro & Foundation courses!

Keep a watch out for when I post August - December’s schedule!

This wasn’t my first time assisting ever, but it was my first big time event doing it! I’ve learned a lot from Dr. Mally, from both education and as an educator. Kudos to him for inspiring the next teachers

Just submitted my newest course: Pstop Pskipping the Psoas and Cheating the Chest for NCBTMB approval! This will be a single day workshop covering all the “scarier” and often overlooked muscles of the body!

You can read more about how the class will be presented here for this first offering:

Food for thought!

What a wonderful anatomy short identifying some of our favorite nerve branches! BONUS: at the very beginning, watch for the brief opportunity to witness how the nerves pass through the scalenes BEFORE they reach the more common culprit area near the collarbone.

Typically called, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, your client will present with pain/numbness/tingling down the arm and even out to the fingers. But if your client isn’t improving with chest and shoulder work, consider the scalene entrapment and discuss forward head posture, particularly if they may have a desk job with an offset monitor.

This can look like a single monitor which is to the right or left of midline to the direction the client types and use the mouse. Another is if they have two monitors BOTH being left and right of midline preventing the client from ever liking straight on.

I just posted the January class for those of you who have taken the Intro & Foundation course and are ready to deepen your understanding of how to identify, treat, and create awareness with your client about the origins of these Upper Body Dysfunctions.

Putting together my 2025 schedule now! I have a big update for an out-of-Iowa education event in the works as well as Iowa schedule dates!

If you are interested in a discount for hosting me and can gather another therapist or at least lend your practice table and room, I would be open to talking about travel opportunities to your neck of the woods - Iowa or abroad as I am NCBTMB-approved and can even work for AMTA-contracted events!

If you’d like to schedule some table time with me at my HQ, this is the remainder of my 2024 available sessions!

Another great class! This time MDRT was in Clinton, IA for the weekend! Thanks for hosting me, Pam, and her office mate, Greta Van Puppy!

Next month is Carroll, IA and back to HQ in DSM (Clive) for October.

Since these classes are full, who wants me to host an advanced class in November?

07/21/2024

Just one day in and I’ve already been inspired to update some info for the MDRT: Intro & Foundation class as well as some great practical applications in my advanced courses MDRT: Upper & Lower Body Dysfunctions. Looking forward to the next 48 hours and all the upcoming knowledge!

07/14/2024

I’m off to Maine to study with Tom Myers of Anatomy Trains! Really looking forward to g forward to this workshop and how it will enhance my own future classes!
