Online CPD courses by Mel Cash
I have produced a series of online courses with MedBridge Education, a major American online training provider specialising in musculoskeletal medicine. They have now launched MedBridgeMassage to provide advanced courses specifically for massage and soft tissue therapists.
Courses by Mel Cash
- Deep Massage Techniques with Functional Anatomy
- Advanced Soft Tissue Techniques (Neuromuscular techniques, Soft Tissue Release, Muscle Energy Techniques, Positional Release)
- Musculoskeletal Assessment
See https://www.medbridgemassage.com/instructor-cash
In total these courses run for about 10 hours which is nowhere near enough to replace the depth and detail we cover on our ISRM/BTEC Level 5 one-year part-time training course. They only cover some of the main techniques and assume that you already have good basic massage skills and knowledge of the anatomy and physiology that underpins the profession. They are not designed for beginners and are only intended for current students and qualified therapists.
They are ideal for:
- Experienced ISRM therapists, or those retuning after a break, who want to update and refresh their skills.
- ISRM students, to supporting their studies and revision.
- Level 3 & 4 qualified massage therapists wanting to develop more advanced clinical skills without doing an expensive top-up course.
For a one-year subscription you have unlimited access to these courses plus many more excellent courses by leading American therapists including:
- Myofascial Release Approach: Walt Fritz
- Precision Neuromuscular Therapy: Douglas Nelson
- Structural Relief Therapy: Taya Countyman
- Joint and Fascial Balancing: Kerry D’Ambrogio
And many more! See https://www.medbridgemassage.com/courses
