They will also familiarise themselves with special orthopaedic tests which can be used as part of the assessment to gain further insight into the root of injuries
LEARNING OUTCOMES
- to develop your knowledge of joint assessment skills, using the RAP model
- to be able to identify the true origin of an injury rather than relying on where the pain is
- to become confident in using special orthopaedic tests as part of the assessment process

About The Medical Massage Lady Training School
The Medical Massage Lady Training School
Tunbridge Wells
I qualified in Swedish massage and Preheat treatments back in 1997, and while I continued to use my massage qualification, my main career was as a surgical nurse and then a midwife on a high risk unit. After another 9 years of working with mainly physically disabled children and volunteering in disabled sports camps, I also qualified as a sports therapist. My medical background has given me a good understanding of both physical and mental health issues and injuries for which massage treatments may be sought, and the ability to identify causes of muscle tension that other therapists may not be able to. I particularly have lots of experience of using massage in physically disabled children , particularly spastic cerebral palsy, and in women's health, domestic abuse victims and PTSD sufferers.
