If you're looking for new "tools" that will help you provide quick, effective pain relief for your clients - and help you take better care of your own body - consider an introduction to The Rossiter System.

This two-day workshop teaches the fundamentals of The Rossiter System, a collection on two-person stretching techniques that loosen and elongate connective tissue to prevent and relieve structural pain nearly anywhere in the body. Not only will participants learn new tools, they'll lean how to use their feet - instead of their more vulnerable hands - to change large volumes of connective in a short time.

Over two days, participants will learn at least 15 specific techniques to address pain in the upper body (wrists, arms, elbows, neck, shoulders), as well as pain and tightness in the knees, feet and hands.

Several components distinguish The Rossiter System's approach to stretching, pain relief and the client-therapist relationship.

Cients are expected to remain fully alert and involved during each session, and they also are asked to move in order to stretch their own connective tissue. In this relationship, the therapist becomes the "Coach" and the client is called the PIC, or Person in Charge of his/her own body.

Clients also remain fully clothed during a Rossiter "workout," which is what a session is called because the emphasis is on hard, powerful stretching in which clients take responsibility for their own healing and recovery, assisted by a trained therapist/Rossiter.

Rossiter workshop participants learn the techniques as both Coach and PIC, such that they learn how to apply the techniques and they also discover what the techniques feel like on their own bodies. And they learn new body mechanics that help preserve the integrity of their own bodies to continue pursuing the work they love.
