Physical Therapy Instructor
Expert Instructor
Dr. Rob Satriano is an expert instructor in the field of Myofascial Pain Science, trigger point dry needling, the treatment of chronic pain, and the complex management of patients with hypermobility or Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS). Dr. Satriano teaches continuing education courses on dry needling and myofascial release as well as professional mentoring PT instructors.
As a Myopain Seminars faculty member, Rob travels the country teaching other therapists, physicians, chiropractors, and acupuncturists. Rob’s seminars and classes are paradigm-shifting to many clinicians and surgical practice groups that offer physical therapy. Participants learn new diagnostic skills to help practitioners get to the root cause of a patient’s pain, rather than treating symptomatically.
Each year, Rob teaches over 1,000 physical therapy professionals. Medical clinicians travel from all over the U.S. and internationally to learn Rob’s techniques. Professional sports teams send their staff to train with Rob. He has trained many physiotherapists in the NFL, NBA, NHL, PGA and USTA.
The United States military sends their Special Forces units to Rob for treatment and training. He teaches their medical staff/Delta force medics. They learn the latest diagnostics and treatment techniques for acute and chronic myofascial injuries. Rob also performs telemedicine remotely with troops while they are on deployment.
Cadaver Dissection and Dry Needling for Medical Professionals
Dr. Satriano is involved in co-teaching a cadaver dissection and dry needling continuing education courses at the Institute for Anatomical Research in Colorado Springs. This specialized lab is tailored for small groups of medical professionals.
The course and lab emphasize anatomical theories with a specific focus on fascia, muscle slings, myofascial referral patterns, and other significant connections that are often overlooked in standard anatomy textbooks. Unlike two-dimensional depictions found in books, the hands-on dissection allows students to accurately perceive the location of crucial structures, such as blood vessels and nerves, in their natural positions (in-situ). This tactile experience enables a deeper understanding and appreciation of anatomical complexities.
