The past two weekends have seen SOMM return 'home' to where it all began at @GSTTnhs, where Dr Cyriax developed his approach of Examination by Selective Tissue Tension, a cornerstone of MSK assessment & treatment.
Last week also saw the return of the infamous 'flump' analogy - those who have attended SOMM courses pre-covid will remember all about that 🍡
London & Guys were great hosts, and we will back in September for the neck and upper limb module.
So if you want to develop your clinical reasoning, learn new approaches to assessing and treating MSK injuries, and start a Masters pathway, check the link below 👇

If you've attended a SOMM course in the past 16 years, certainly on injections, there's a very good chance you'll have had the privilege of being taught by Sharon.
Sharon has been an integral part of the SOMM faculty, continually developing the Injection Therapy course and co-authoring the textbook accompanying the SOMM curriculum.
The very best of luck with your future plans Sharon. Keep in touch!
After 16 happy years at SOMM, I've decided to step down & begin a new chapter.
My heartfelt thanks @sommcourses for many happy memories & for being such a significant part of my career. Being an educator is one of the most rewarding experiences. Grateful for the memories, the people & the privilege of training >1000 clinicians in MSK & injection therapy. I'll continue to do what i am passionate about, and will share my future roles very soon!
