“Joining the Cyriax Online Masterclass has been amazing. Living in the United States, it’s challenging to find continuing education courses that honor Dr. Cyriax’s legacy and work. Steven has created a course that stays true to the principles of the method while adhering to modern concepts and updates (including pain science). The app allows for easy access to the material and creates an easy reference for use in the clinic. I highly recommend this course to continue your development in orthopedic physical therapy!”

"Online OMCyriax is becoming a part of my daily practice. The information from the videos is very often my first option when I need to determine a precise diagnosis and make a therapy plan. The application allows me to do it quickly and at any time.
Diagnostic and treatment techniques with Cyriax helped me to solve certain pathologies faster and more simply, for which I was not so efficient before.
The new version of OMS is with new information and recordings, well designed and organized so now, I can get to the information more easily."
Aleksandar Dimitrovski, PT
"The Best take I have from the entire course is the deeper knowledge on Orthopedic Medicine and how to correlate with different conditions. With that being said, It is now easier to explain to the patient. With regards to my diagnosis and treatment. My assessment takes more time than before as it becomes more thorough, but because it is now more specific the treatment time becomes shorter and effective. In summary I can say, I become more efficient."
We provide for each area (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, foot, lumbar-cervical-thoracic spine, a ready and easy to use standardized functional assessment form. Downloadable in pdf.
Challenge yourself!
"As a certified Cyriax practiotioner, I can say that Masterclass has a great value.
If I want to clear for me specific problem/technique I can do it easily and check immediately online"
