Unlock the "Black Box" of the Thorax: Join Dr. LJ Lee in Seattle for ConnectTherapy™ & the Thorax
Are you treating the site of the pain, or the true cause of the problem? If you’ve ever been puzzled by patients with identical symptoms who respond entirely differently to the same thoracic manipulations, it’s time for a new framework.
Join internationally renowned physiotherapist, researcher, and educator Dr. Linda-Joy (LJ) Lee for her highly anticipated hybrid course: ConnectTherapy™ & the Thorax (The Thoracic Ring Approach™).
With over 20 years of clinical and research experience, Dr. Lee has revolutionized the way we understand whole-body movement. As the creator of ConnectTherapy™ and the Thoracic Ring Approach™, her methods empower clinicians to find the Primary Driver of a patient’s dysfunction—proving that thoracic dysfunction can be the hidden root cause behind stalled core and glute training, recurrent pelvic girdle pain, persistent tendinopathies, and even autonomic dysregulation.
The Course: One Comprehensive Format, Three Essential Components
This hybrid model is designed to give you the time to absorb the theory and maximize your hands-on practice:
💻 11+ Hours of Self-Paced Virtual Learning: Complete lectures and demonstrations at your own pace before the live event (includes 12-month access).
👐 3 Days In-Person in Seattle, WA (October 16–18, 2026): Dive into hands-on assessment and treatment skills directly with LJ and her team. Enjoy a high instructor-to-participant ratio for personalized feedback.
📹 12-Month Practical Resource Library: Carry your new skills back to the clinic with an extensive library of video techniques and concepts.
What You Will Learn & Practice:
Screening & Clinical Reasoning: Understand the thorax's contribution to whole-body function, evaluate Net Centre of Mass over Base of Support, and link thoracic behavior to load-related lower extremity injuries.
Assess the Rings & Find the Driver: Use the Drivers Diagnostic Chart™ Algorithm to accurately rule the thorax in (or out) as the primary cause of symptoms elsewhere in the body.
Advanced Hands-On Treatment: Master LJ’s specific "stack & breathe / stack & release" techniques, treat Co-Drivers, and utilize precise taping and cueing to optimize brain mapping.
Progressive Exercise Prescription: Move beyond manual therapy by designing progressive programs, including “Self-check & Reset” exercises that empower patients to maintain optimal movement between visits.
