Unlock the Power to Relieve Pain at Its Source 🔓💥

This in-person course introduces you to the transformative principles and hands-on techniques of Coaching The Body™ (CTB)—a groundbreaking modality developed by Chuck Duff. CTB fuses the ancient wisdom of Thai yoga massage 🧘‍♂️ with modern insights from Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy 💢, acupoint work 🌿, and a deep understanding of functional anatomy 🧠💪.

Unlike traditional methods that chase symptoms, CTB equips you with the tools to identify and treat the true sources of pain and dysfunction—even in cases that have resisted conventional medical approaches. You’ll learn to assess movement, pinpoint myofascial imbalances 🎯, and deliver precise, effective treatments that restore freedom of movement and rapidly reduce pain 🌀.

This course is taught on floor mats, and techniques are easily adapted to massage tables 🛏️. CTB seamlessly integrates into your existing practice and gives you confidence in treating the most common client complaints.

Coaching The Body was developed to bridge the gap between traditional Thai techniques and Western orthopedic and neuromuscular understanding. The result? A cutting-edge system that’s recognized as one of the most efficient and effective approaches to orthopedic rehab, injury recovery, and pain relief available today ❤️‍🩹.

❤️‍🩹

Did you know that migraines are recognized as the second leading cause of disability across the world?

While the underlying causes of migraines is not clear, in functional medicine we address 6 common factors that contribute to headaches and migraines:

6 common root causes of headaches and migraines:

1️⃣ Mitochondrial imbalances
Dysfunctional mitochondrial function due to excess oxidative stress can lead to an increase in neuronal excitability which can increase likelihood of a migraine.

2️⃣Magnesium Deficiency
Some studies have found a link between those who suffer from migraines and magnesium deficiency. Magnesium could provide a few different roles in preventing migraines:
✅Magnesium could potentially block brain signals that could lead to changes in vision or aura migraines
✅Low levels of magnesium could also lead to blood vessels in the brain to constrict, which may lead to a migraine

3️⃣Food allergies / sensitivities
Common food allergies or sensitivities that can be potentially linked to an increase in migraines or headaches include:
🚩 Gluten
🚩 Dairy
🚩 Eggs
🚩 Corn
🚩 Yeast
🚩 Sugar

4️⃣Gut imbalances
Gut inflammation and a disrupted microbiome have been linked in recent studies to those suffering from migraines.

5️⃣Hormonal imbalances
Common hormonal imbalances that are often associated with migraines include:
🚩Fluctuating hormone levels, especially during perimenopause
🚩Insulin resistance
🚩Those who use oral contraceptive pills or HRT
🚩Premenstrual - a drop in estrogen & progesterone could be linked to migraines

6️⃣Processed food
Common food additives or compounds have been linked to an increase in migraines and headaches. These include:
🚩 Aspartame
🚩 MSG
🚩 Sulfites - found in dried fruit, wine, pre-made sauces,
🚩 Tyramine - found in cheese and chocolate
