PRRT™ Level 1 & 2 Combined Intensive – Charlotte, NC

August 14 - August 16

PRRT™ Level 1 & 2 Combined Intensive

Every Experienced Clinician Has One Case They Can’t Stop Thinking About

Bring the questions that have kept you searching. Spend three immersive days experiencing PRRT as both clinician and patient while developing a repeatable process for approaching difficult cases with greater clarity.

Maybe it’s a patient who improves temporarily but continues to regress.

Maybe it’s a spouse, family member, or friend you still haven’t been able to help.

Maybe it’s your own persistent pain or movement limitation.

Or maybe, after years in practice, you simply know there must be a better way to determine what deserves attention first.

PRRT™ was built for those moments.

During this three-day intensive, you will learn a full-body assessment and reassessment process, practice more than 60 rapid hands-on interventions, and experience the work firsthand alongside instructors and other healthcare professionals.

You will not spend the weekend simply watching techniques. You will assess, apply, retest, troubleshoot, and feel how the body responds in real time.

Join us August 14–16, 2026, in Charlotte, NC, for an immersive clinical experience designed to change how you approach difficult cases, both from the clinician’s side of the treatment table and from the patient’s.

Dates: August 14–16, 2026 Schedule: 9am to 6pm daily Location: Charlotte, NC Format: Live instruction and hands-on labs CEUs: 24 hours NCBTMB, BOC, APTA NC

An Immersive Hands-On Experience

Experience PRRT™ From Both Sides of the Treatment Table

Most seminars ask you to watch a demonstration, practice a technique, and hope you can reproduce the result when you return to work.

Charlotte is different.

Throughout the intensive, attendees rotate between assessing, treating, observing, and experiencing PRRT™ firsthand. This gives you the opportunity to understand the process from multiple perspectives:

  • As a clinician, you learn how to identify priorities, select an intervention, and immediately reassess the response.
  • As the person on the table, you experience what the examination and interventions feel like and observe how your own body responds.
  • As part of the group, you watch the same process applied across different bodies, histories, and clinical presentations.

Some clinicians arrive with their own persistent issue. Others bring questions about a spouse, friend, or patient whose case has become personal. You do not need to arrive in pain to benefit. You only need to arrive curious and ready to reconsider how you approach the cases that have resisted simple answers.

Recent Graduate Feedback

“I had already been getting good results. The live seminar completely changed how I apply the work clinically.”

“The Primal Reflex Release Technique training in Charlotte honestly took things to another level for me.”

I had already been using concepts from the Level 1 home study and getting good results, but the in-person Level 1 & 2 training filled in so many small nuances that completely changed how I apply the work clinically.

Since then, I’ve been able to help push some long-time “stuck” clients forward in ways they hadn’t experienced in years.

What a client said after treatment:

“Just had to tell you today I could do a standing quad stretch with my right leg back and hips square for the first time in 6 years!!

And I can crouch fully down on my haunches for the first time in about 15 years.”

That’s the stuff that gets me fired up. Not just temporary relief, but helping restore movements people haven’t had access to in years.

Tired of Taking Courses That Never Make It Into Your Practice?

Many clinicians have invested in continuing education that sounded good in class, but did not create real change once they got back to work.

PRRT™ is designed to be different. You will not just watch techniques. You will practice them, get feedback, ask questions, and learn how to use the system with real patient problems.

  • Hands-on practice throughout the seminar
  • Real-time feedback from the instructor
  • Help with your specific patient cases
  • A repeatable process you can use in clinic

Our 30-Day Implementation Support Promise

Our goal isn’t simply for you to finish the course. It’s for you to begin using PRRT with confidence. If you’ve attended the Intensive, started implementing the material, and still need help, we’ll continue working with you at no additional cost until you’re making meaningful progress with real patients.

Why Attend Live?

  • Hands-on practice with real-time instructor feedback, because you cannot learn palpation from a video alone
  • 24 CE contact hours, through APTANC, NCBTMB, and BOC approval
  • Coached troubleshooting for your specific patient cases
  • Small-group instruction designed to preserve hands-on learning quality

Why Clinicians Attend PRRT™

Many clinicians come to PRRT™ because they are tired of guessing with difficult cases. They want a clearer way to evaluate what is happening, determine what deserves attention first, and know whether their treatment is moving the patient in the right direction.

PRRT™ teaches clinicians how to rapidly identify and reduce protective reflexive patterns that may contribute to pain, tension, guarding, and movement restriction.

Instead of relying on trial and error, clinicians learn a repeatable assessment and reassessment process that provides immediate feedback from the body and helps guide treatment decisions in real time.

Most students describe PRRT™ as less of a collection of techniques and more of a shift in how they approach clinical problem solving altogether.

FAQ

Will this fit my setting?

Yes. PRRT™ can be integrated into physical therapy, chiropractic, massage therapy, athletic training, occupational therapy, osteopathic practice, acupuncture, and many other clinical settings. Most clinicians continue using their existing tools and simply add PRRT™ to improve assessment, decision-making, and patient outcomes.

Am I eligible to attend?

This seminar is designed for licensed healthcare professionals, bodyworkers, and students preparing to enter clinical practice. Physical therapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, athletic trainers, occupational therapists, osteopaths, acupuncturists, and other clinicians who actively work with patients are welcome to attend.

Do I need prior experience with PRRT™?

No. This seminar is designed for clinicians who are completely new to PRRT™ as well as those looking to strengthen their understanding through hands-on instruction and guided practice.

How quickly can I start using this in practice?

Most clinicians begin applying what they learn immediately. The seminar is built around hands-on practice, real-time feedback, and practical application so you can start using the system with patients right away.

What if my patients improve temporarily but keep regressing?

This is one of the most common reasons clinicians seek out PRRT™. Many patients experience temporary improvement but continue to return with the same complaints. PRRT™ provides a systematic approach for identifying what may be keeping progress from holding and helps clinicians make more confident decisions when patients stop moving forward.

How is PRRT™ different from other treatment approaches?

Most treatment approaches focus primarily on the area that hurts. PRRT™ teaches clinicians how to evaluate the body as a system, identify what deserves attention first, and quickly determine whether an intervention is producing meaningful change. Many clinicians find this creates greater clarity when working with complex or recurring cases.

Will I receive CE credit?

Yes. Eligible participants can earn 24 contact hours. Documentation and approval information are available upon request.
