Education

The purpose of this initiative is to disseminate information and build public awareness to make counterstrain more accessible to people who could benefit from it.

Twenty years ago, acupuncture in the United States was still considered an alternative, even bizarre, medical practice.

Today, it seems like your neighbor, every pro-athlete, and their aunt has an acupuncturist they love.

Because Fascial Counterstrain is unlike any other physical therapy or medicine, it is hard for people who haven’t experienced it to understand what it is and how it might help.

Our goal is to do for Fascial Counterstrain, what has been done for acupuncture. No, acupuncture isn’t for everyone and Fascial Counterstrain won’t be either, but we want to make it a familiar household name, so that the people whose cases will benefit from Fascial Counterstrain care are able to access it with ease and confidence.

To this end we both create and sponsor educational efforts that help demystify what Fascial Counterstrain is and what it can do for people.

Expanding access to quality Fascial Counterstrain care for new communities is a multifaceted endeavor. One of the most impactful ways to do this is to work directly with healthcare providers already embedded within underserved populations.

These dedicated individuals often possess a deep understanding of the unique challenges their communities face and are best positioned to deliver culturally competent care.

However, for many aspiring practitioners, pursuing advanced training in Fascial Counterstrain can be a daunting prospect.

Recognizing this critical need, we established the Practitioner Scholarship Fund as a way to break down the barriers that prevent more providers from investing in training to achieve high levels of technique competency.

Through these scholarships, we not only empower aspiring practitioners to achieve mastery in Fascial Counterstrain but also foster a more inclusive and diverse healthcare landscape.
