Trigger Point Therapy - NAT Master Course Collection

NAT Master Course Collection · Approximately 46 Hours

Build a comprehensive working knowledge of trigger point therapy.

Seven established online courses bring together foundational trigger point education and focused clinical applications for frequently encountered pain presentations.

Study the principles that underpin safe trigger point work before progressing through practical, region-specific courses covering the shoulder, head, neck, lower back, elbow and wrist. The collection is designed for trained massage, manual therapy and rehabilitation professionals who want a substantial, structured learning pathway rather than a single short course.
