Fascial normalization will focus on the intrinsic quality of the fasciae and will address various fascial chains analytically breaking down to their components. Fascial chains can include direct links where there is a traceable continuity of the same tissue throughout the kinetic chain as well as indirect links where contiguity, being immediately adjacent, of fascial tissue has a significant influence on the function of the chain. Water is constantly being linked and unlinked to glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans in the extra cellular matrix. This continual process of GEL and SOL of linking and unlinking of free and bound water is fundamental for not only for the health of the fasciae but also the health of the body as a whole.
Therapists who learn Fascial Normalization techniques begin to acquire the foundational skills of treating the severely acute patient, finalizing complex soft tissue cases and restoring function to the fasciae of the viscera.
Learn directly from the creator of the ELDOA™ Method, Guy VOYER, DO in this hands-on seminar teaching over 100+ Fascial Normalization techniques covering: Lower Limb, Upper Limb, TMJ, Trunk, Spine & Pelvis along with diagnostic tests of the spine and pelvis.
This seminar is open to therapists of all modalities, but especially useful for chiropractors, physical therapists, osteopaths, manual therapists and sports trainers.
Learn manual techniques and assessments used to normalize injuries and performance for current and retired athletes in the professional sports arena such as the NBA, MLB, NHL, NFL, PGA, and UFC.

Water is a major element of the Extra-Cellular Matrix of the fasciae. It is constantly being linked and unlinked to the glycosaminoglycans and the proteoglycans in the ECM. This continual process of linking and unlinking is described in the Osteopathic community as the primary respiratory mechanism (PRM). A properly functioning PRM is one of the indicators of fascial health.
If the PRM of the fasciae is disturbed, the structural and physiological functions of the fasciae at a local or global level may be compromised leading to dysfunctions of a specific muscle or articulation or an entire kinetic chain.

Learn directly from the master himself. Guy VOYER, DO teaches precise techniques rooted in deep knowledge of fascial relational anatomy and tensegritive biomechanics. Over 40 years of dissections, clinical work, and patient treatments worldwide, prove VOYER's techniques and instruction invaluable. He has (and continues to) successfully treated world-class athletes with the same techniques he teaches today.

Courses are held at the UFHEC - Metropolitano Campus in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The district is called La Esperilla.
We have a group rate with the Courtyard Marriott which is a 3 minute walk to the school. There are also many Airbnbs available for rent. Do a search for La Esperilla if you wish to be within walking distance to the school. There are also 2 hotels in the area:
There are currently no testing or vaccine requirements for entry into the Dominican Republic for citizens of most countries (USA and Canada included).
To enter the USA as a US citizen, there are currently no testing requirements needed for entry. There is a testing site 5 minutes from the school, Amadita, that provides antigen tests for about $30-40 USD and PCR tests for $80-90 USD.
Your passport must be valid for the period of stay in the Dominican Republic. 1 blank page is required for the entry stamp. The expiration of your passport must be no less than 6 months from the date of entry.
All foreign and Dominican passengers entering or leaving on commercial flights must complete a free electronic entry and exit form.
We have taught over 40 courses in Santo Domingo since 2021 with no issues. Exercise the same amount of caution you would traveling to any foreign destination.
All in-person seminars are 100% refundable if cancelled 30 days before the event start date. If cancelled within 30 days of the seminar start date, the event fees are non-refundable, though they may be applied as credit towards future in-person seminars.
Please arrange for your own cancellation insurance. In the event that a seminar is cancelled due to but not limited to a scheduling issue, host-issue, serious weather or geo-political issue, SomaVOYER will refund or credit your attendance fee but WILL NOT compensate for any flights, accommodation/lodging, rental cars, any other related expenses or days missed from work.
