The Shoulder - 7-DVD Program

Are you frustrated when your massage techniques don't seem to relieve your clients? 

Are your clients still complaining of pain after several treatment sessions? 

Do you just want to help your clients be free from pain? 

Dr. Ben Benjamin was just like you. He graduated from massage school and worked on clients but was still having a hard time relieving them of chronic pain and injuries. After much study, including under Dr. James Cyriax, he now specializes in chronic pain from soft tissue injuries and is able to figure out the cause of mysterious pain problems.

He eliminates them at their source with a combination of friction therapy, myofascial therapy, and massage therapy - called orthopedic manual therapy. 

And you can learn this, too.

Problem Solving You Don't Learn in Massage School

In this comprehensive Shoulder program, Dr. Benjamin teaches you the problem solving you don't learn in massage school so that you can become a Pain Specialist.

Learn easy-to-understand and practical assessment techniques to find out where your client's injuries are coming from. Dr. Benjamin will also show you multi-targeted treatment approaches to treat soft tissue injuries at their source and prevent injuries from only half-healing.

He makes this highly technical and complex material clear and accessible. With precision, humor, and insight he uses a step-by-step approach to teach practitioners anatomy, assessment, treatment techniques, and injury rehabilitation for working with shoulder pain.
