Erik Dalton’s Treating Trapped Nerves (16 CE Hours) 

Erik developed Treating Trapped Nerves from the neurodynamic research of Maitland, Shacklock, and Butler. He integrated his extensive knowledge of current pain science with his unique soft-tissue preparatory methods into a system that delivers results. With 65 nerve mobilization assessments and corrective techniques, you’ll address peripheral nerve issues like thoracic outlet, cubital tunnel, carpal tunnel, sciatic entrapment, and more with confidence. Neurodynamics is an important conversation that most massage education forgets. Get ready to address every major peripheral nerve in the body!

Course Overview

When nerves become compressed or restricted at key joints, clients can experience pain, numbness, weakness, and persistent dysfunction that doesn’t respond to traditional approaches. This course teaches you how to identify and treat nerve-related pain at its source, so you can move beyond temporary relief and deliver longer-lasting results.

Rooted in current neuro and pain science, you’ll learn proven neuromobilization strategies through a clear, clinically relevant MAT framework.
