Adam Leavens of Structural Integration Toronto suggests that while assessment and reassessment may not always be a primary focus in every RMT’s practice, there is a significant opportunity for all therapists to improve by learning how to better observe and interpret the unique patterns presented by their patients.

Many therapists notice a recurring cycle: patients returning with the exact same tightness and symptoms, requiring the same areas to be worked on repeatedly. Adam explores the "why" behind this cycle, investigating the root causes and identifying where else in the body therapists should be looking.

With over 22 years of experience as an RMT and educator, Adam has had the privilege of learning from some of the industry’s most influential mentors. His extensive clinical background includes:

These mentors have shaped Adam’s philosophy: treating the body by analyzing systems and patterns rather than simply focusing on the localized site of tension or pain.

In this workshop, Adam shares how he blends this diverse knowledge to understand the development of chronic pain. His approach looks at the entire body as an integrated system where every part impacts the whole. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how to assess and address body-wide patterns, ultimately leading to more effective and sustainable treatment outcomes for their patients.
