ERGON Technique Sports Course - Advanced

The primary aim of this advanced seminar is to train participants in the use of Advanced Ergon® sport techniques in functional conditions and movements. Also, this seminar will highlight the functional assessment of various anatomic structures as well as the treatment of specific fascial points at myofascial meridians.

ERGON® Technique is an innovative development of older IASTM approaches (GUA SHA, GRASTON technique, SMART TOOLS technique, Tools assisted massage technique etc.) and is based on the myofascial meridians theory as first described by Thomas Myers.

The ERGON® Soft Tissue Techniques are applied on specific points of tissue restrictions and fascial adhesions along the fascial meridians; when these are released, functionality improves within a few treatment sessions.

The Ergon Technique relies on unique clinical equipment called ERGON Tools.

Ergon Tools applied with special ERGON Technique can:

a) detect and release –loosen scar tissues, adhesions and fascial stiffness

b) increase local perfusion

c) decrease muscle tone and myofascial pain

The therapeutic effect of ERGON® Technique is sustained for many days afterwards, and when combined with other treatment techniques (stretching and neuromuscular control exercises techniques) can even become permanent.

This particular technique allows ERGON®-certified Therapists to

1. assess with precision myofascial areas of high sensitivity, and
2. restore biomechanical function of joints by dissolving adhesions, regaining normal myofascial rolling and reducing muscle spasm and pain.
