Introducing Myofascial Length Testing (MFLT):

Donna’s groundbreaking MFLT will be your new secret weapon. This innovative technique, developed by Donna herself, allows you to assess myofascial meridians and their role in creating restrictions and rotations in the body’s fascial lines. By combining this cutting-edge tool with your client’s history, visual assessment, and goals, you’ll craft a crystal-clear treatment plan. Witness firsthand as we untangle and lengthen areas of the body battling compressive and shearing forces. We’ll observe and discuss the remarkable transformations in your clients’ structure, function, and MFLT results.

This class was one of the more exceptional ones I’ve taken. The material is immediately useful to me… the instructors each have a depth of knowledge in complementary overlapping fields which made it very rich and seamless feeling.
