Delos Therapy Fascia Manipulation Technique
December 5 & 6, 2026
1311 Morris Ave
Union, NJ 07083
Taught by: Eric Owens MS, LMT, Marina Megaly, DC, Garrett Rumsby, PT, DPT, AJ Gaines, PT, DPT
This two day course includes 75% hands-on practical training and 25% didactic lecture instruction to effectively integrate Delos Therapy into clinical management. The content of the course includes: (1) the science and properties of fascia, (2) understanding fascial adhesions, (3) an introduction to oscillating pressure and shear, and (4) philosophy and application of Delos Therapy.
Course Objectives
At the completion of this course, the participants will be able to:
- Explain the unique anatomical, viscosity and fibrotic properties of fascia.
- Identify fascial restrictions through palpation and patient feedback.
- Apply the Delos Therapy method of precise, sustained pressure to resolve fascial adhesions.
- Develop treatment strategies for common injuries and performance limitations.
- Integrate Delos Therapy into their professional practice for superior outcomes in pain reduction, mobility, and performance.
