The Sports Therapy Association Podcast is recorded LIVE every Tuesday at 8pm (UK) on the Sports Therapy Association YouTube channel and Facebook Page, and then uploaded as a podcast. You do not have to be an STA member to attend the live recordings - it is a chance to network with fellow therapists and discuss topics that together help us all move forward as an industry. The goal of the podcast, hosted by Matt Phillips (creator of runchatlive.com), is to deliver to Soft Tissue Therapists of all levels (including massage therapists, sports therapists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, etc.) up to date information on how to be a modern, successful, effective health care practitioner, with a gold star reputation for being able to help people in pain and/or looking for performance gains. The Sports Therapy Association (STA) is a professional representation for Sports Therapists, Sports Injury Therapists and Soft Tissue Therapists. We have worked passionately to develop a truly independent and ethical association that is committed to raising standards across the industry and progressing opportunities for our valued members.

Welcome to the Sports Therapy Association Podcast!
Recorded live on Tuesdays at 8pm (UK time) on the Sports Therapy Association Facebook Page , host Matt Phillips (creator of Runchatlive) brings guests from the Sports Therapy industry to answer YOUR questions and discuss topics chosen by YOU.
Happy New Year! With the Covid19 pandemic continuing to place huge pressures on our industry, the Sports Therapy Association Podcast is dedicated to continue providing you with support throughout 2021, including the latest updates on industry guidelines and of course special guests sharing their experience, advice & information to enhance your skills and business throughout these difficult times.
We start the year proudly with a “you asked for him, we got him” moment. Ep.32 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast brings you the one & only special Walt Fritz, a hugely respected name within the soft tissue industry.
Walt has been teaching Massage, Occupational, and Physical Therapists for over two decades. Having trained and worked for some of the pioneers of Myofascial Release (MFR), Walt decided it was time to move the traditional MFR narrative from its historical roots into more modern and accepted narratives of neurological explanation. Though he still calls his work myofascial release, Walt dedicates his time to helping therapists move beyond the traditionally taught idea that we are capable of selectively targeting one tissue, fascia or otherwise.
Using a strong base of neurologic-based effects and influences, Walt teaches how touch & manual therapy have universal qualities that can be explained in a wide variety of ways, of which the myofascial release perspective is just one.
