Student Feedback
Postural assessment is very important. After studying, I no longer look only at whether an individual area seems larger or smaller.
Structural bodywork suits higher-priced services; clear explanations of assessment and plans are essential.
The course links the pelvis, neck, shoulders, and overall body lines in a practical way.
