Foundations for Practitioners

Patients plateau between sessions not because your work isn’t effective, but because the muscles driving their patterns sit beyond the reach of conventional home care. The iliacus, psoas, piriformis, suboccipitals, pec minor, and upper trapezius are the six keystone muscles most responsible for whole-body pain patterns, and most self-care tools simply can’t access them with enough precision or consistency to hold the work you do in the clinic. This course, taught by physical therapist Christine Annie (Koth), MPT, gives you the clinical foundation to change that. You’ll learn the science behind prolonged pressure and why it works differently from stretching, foam rolling, or standard modalities. You’ll understand the keystone muscle hierarchy, how to assess which muscles are driving a patient’s presentation, and how to integrate Aletha tools into your existing protocols with confidence. The goal isn’t to add a new system to your practice. It’s to extend the work you’re already doing further than your hands can reach so your patients maintain progress, return with better baselines, and trust you as the practitioner who finally addressed what others missed.
