Personalized feedback from instructors - one of the benefits of taking an ART seminar.

Our instructors take the time to work with you one on one to give the guidance needed to fully grasp the protocols youโ€™re learning, and feel confident using them as soon as the seminar is over.

Interested in improving your soft tissue skills? Upper Extremity Level 1 is coming to San Jose, CA, July 24-26. Register today: https://hubs.ly/Q04hmt480

For DCs, PTs, ATCs, MTs, OTs, and other soft tissue providers who already understand movement, anatomy, and tissue quality, fascia doesn't add "more protocols." It enhances clinical reasoning and palpation ability.

Dr. Ryan Comeau, DC, touched on something many of us in the musculoskeletal and performance world already know: ๐€๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐‘๐ž๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ž ๐“๐ž๐œ๐ก๐ง๐ข๐ช๐ฎ๐ž๐ฌ (๐€๐‘๐“) ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐š๐ข๐ง๐ฌ ๐จ๐ง๐ž ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐œ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ž๐œ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ข๐œ, ๐ซ๐ข๐ ๐จ๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ฉ๐ž๐, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐žโ€‘๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž๐ง ๐ฌ๐จ๐Ÿ๐ญโ€‘๐ญ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ฆ๐ฌ ๐š๐ฏ๐š๐ข๐ฅ๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ๐๐š๐ฒ.

What stood out is how he connects ART to modern, digital, objective assessment, especially through 3D motion capture technologies like Kinetisense. When clinicians can see dysfunction, treat it with precision, and then measure the change, the entire care model shifts. Thatโ€™s the kind of integration that elevates both patient outcomes and professional standards.

This is why our partnership means so much. Together, weโ€™re aligning around a shared mission:

โœ”๏ธ ๐‘๐š๐ข๐ฌ๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ง๐๐š๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฌ๐จ๐Ÿ๐ญโ€‘๐ญ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ž ๐œ๐š๐ซ๐ž through evidenceโ€‘informed, highly specific manual therapy

โœ”๏ธ ๐’๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐œ๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ who need to identify and resolve movement restrictions that impact speed, power, and efficiency
โœ”๏ธ ๐ƒ๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ ๐ฆ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ซ๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐œ๐ก๐š๐ง๐ ๐ž, not just symptom relief

As Dr. Comeau notes, clinicians who combine ART with objective movement data often see some of the most compelling beforeโ€‘andโ€‘after results in practice.

This partnership is about bringing that level of clarity, rigor, and impact to even more providers.

If youโ€™re a clinician or performance specialist looking to elevate your approach, we recommend not only exploring ART certification but also how you can combine it with powerful tools such as Kinetisense. It will change how you treat and how you think about what the tissue is telling you.

Our team recently attended AOTA Inspire, and as always, it was a blast!

We had Elite Providers giving sample ART treatments, and one of them, Dr. Dalyn Rhoades, also gave a presentation. We met countless students and OTs passionate about helping patients restore function and even threw in a few party tricks for good measure!

We love getting the chance to connect with practitioners who care so deeply about patient. Thank you to everyone who attended Dalynโ€™s presentation or stopped by our booth. We hope to see you at a seminar soon!

โœจ 32 days!

Just over a month until our very first Fascia seminar, something we've been working on for years!

This seminar goes beyond new protocols, it's a whole new lens. You'll learn to interpret movement dysfunction differently, with a more global view of what's happening across the entire chain.

Fascia has been historically dismissed, but advances in research are changing that. The healthcare world is recognizing the capabilities and importance of fascia.

Don't fall behind. Register for one of our Fascia seminars and gain greater results and confidence with complex cases. https://hubs.ly/Q04g81mQ0

A devastating loss within our community, and a presence that will be greatly missed. ๐Ÿ’œ From Alesha Willis, our Manager of Instructor Development:

Durlan took his first seminar in 1993 with Tony Criscuolo and began instructing ART around 1997-1999. He was one of the instructors at my first ART seminar in 2008. He was kind, funny and a great instructor. He was an amazing man to be around; he loved his family and was incredibly proud of them.

This loss is devastating and difficult to comprehend, especially because it came so unexpectedly. We are incredibly grateful for the time we shared with Durlan, for the memories created, and for the joy he brought into our days.

Services will be at the Massapequa Funeral Home in Massapequa Park, NY on Friday 1-4, 6-9 and on Saturday at 10 am at the Trinity Church located at 231 Jackson Ave in Syosset, NY. Link to the funeral home is: https://share.google gNyy6g5my5E3z6k1G

Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with his family and loved ones during this incredibly painful time.

Please continue to support one another and reach out if you need anything. We will share further information as it becomes available.
