Stecco Fascial Manipulation Course – Level 1
Stecco Fascial Manipulation Course – Level 1
The foundation of the Fascial Manipulation method. You’ll learn the Centres of Coordination that make up the fascial sequences, building a systematic framework to palpate and navigate the fascial planes of the body and understand how to uncover where the point of dysfunction is based on the presenting condition, past medical history and clinical findings.
The Foundations of Fascial Manipulation
The Level 1 course provides the basic principles of Fascial Manipulation. You’ll receive a systematic framework to palpate and navigate the fascial planes of the human body, and understand how prior injuries, surgeries and musculoskeletal trauma contribute to pain and dysfunction. The course combines lectures with hands-on practical components that guide you through the assessment and treatment process.
What’s included
Presented by Professor Carla Stecco and Assistant Professor Antonio Stecco, covering the anatomical, biomechanical and pathophysiological basis of the method, plus assessment and treatment modalities.
Learn the palpation, assessment and treatment of the Fascial Manipulation method with Jack. Includes the Fascial Manipulation Level 1: Practical Part textbook.
Perth: a post-course online webinar.
Melbourne (from February 2027): an optional full-day Level 1 Masterclass.
The dates below are for the in-person practical only — the online lectures happen beforehand and are included in every intake.
For Qualified Hands-On Practitioners
Fascial Manipulation is a hands-on assessment and treatment method, so this course is open to practitioners who hold a qualification in manual therapy — including physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, myotherapists and remedial massage therapists*. Practitioners from other professions with a qualification in hands-on assessment and treatment may also be eligible, and final-year students in physiotherapy, osteopathy and chiropractic are welcome too.
Qualifications in areas such as exercise physiology, strength and conditioning, personal training, yoga or Pilates don’t include training in hands-on manual therapy, so on their own they don’t meet this requirement. *Eligibility for remedial massage therapists depends on clinical experience and training background. Not sure whether yours does? Email us before enrolling and we’ll let you know.
Small Groups, Real Feedback
Every Level 1 intake is capped at 12 participants. Fascial Manipulation is a palpation-based skill, and it’s learnt best with someone checking your hands. In a small group, Jack works with each participant directly throughout the practical — something past participants consistently point to as a highlight.
- Direct feedback on your palpation and hand position
- Plenty of supervised practice on every technique
- Time to ask questions as you go
