Video Course: BodyReading the Myofascial Meridians 5: The Spiral Line
Tom Myers
In this fifth webinar of the series, we explore visual assessment of the Spiral Line. The overall movement function of the Spiral Line is to create and mediate spirals and rotations in the body and to steady the trunk and leg to keep it from folding into rotational collapse.
This webinar was recorded during a live event. Some aspects of the live course are not available in this recorded version.
