The 2009 Fascia Research Congress post-congress workshops are available for registration online at http://www.fasciacongress.org/2009/post_conference_workshops.php. All workshops are scheduled for the day following the main conference, Saturday, October 31, 2009.

The Second International Fascia Research Congress will take place at Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, October 27-30, 2009 (full details at http://www.fasciacongress.org/2009/).

Post Congress Workshops
There is an impressive variety of workshop subjects presented by some of the top people in their respective fields. Workshops will focus primarily on clinical methodologies in fields where the human fascia is a main focus of practice and/or theory. An important goal of the Fascia Research Congress has been from the outset to provide an opportunity where both researchers and clinicians can meet, share their work, and collaborate.

For Researchers. It is expected that new areas of scientific inquiry will be identified. The workshop program is designed to give fascia research scientists a greater understanding of how clinicians relate to the subject of the human fasciae, a first hand view of clinical applications, and exposure to the questions clinicians have about the workings of their specialties.

For Clinicians. The program is also designed for clinical practitioners. They will have an opportunity for cross education to learn new techniques and points of view. At the First International Fascia Research Congress in 2007 in Boston, it was clear that those in clinical practice have a keen interest in learning about the scientific basis of their work. The intention is that education in the science underlying clinical methods will add new understandings for the benefit of practitioners themselves in their work and ultimately in the delivery of successful outcomes for those they serve.

Next Steps
You are invited to register for the main conference plus a post-conference workshop, or just post-conference workshops. There are five full-day workshops and six half-day, each of the latter is planned to be repeated twice. You can select any one full-day presentation or any two half-day sessions.
