Surface Anatomy & Length/Strength Testing

Surface Anatomy & Length/Strength Testing

Surface Anatomy & Length Strength Testing (SALST) is a 2 day course covering a comprehensive list of muscle tests to aid therapists and trainers in working with their clients. These tests are used extensively in the Kinesio Taping course, so you can attend SALST as foundation for KT1-2, or stand alone to be used within your practice or business.

Relying on the client being able to articulate how they “feel” after an exercise or manual therapy can be hit and miss. Muscle testing is a great assessment tool for practitioners to demonstrate to your client the efficacy of a therapy technique or exercise. Before and afters can be measured and progress tracked. The body speaks for itself, as long as you know how to read it.

Practitioners can opt to attend day 1 or 2 depending on the focus of your practice. Otherwise attending the full 2 days is recommended.
