“This seminar is one of the best seminars I have taken. I felt like the content and instruction were fantastic. I wasn’t sure how effective the web live format would be, but I feel that in some ways it was better than a live class. I was better able to see and hear the entire class than in a live session. It also seemed to me that it was easier for the instructor to view each student and their work.”
“The content and flow of material was perfect for a live webinar.
The demo videos were well done and I especially thought Cathy was amazing.”
“This was my 1st webinar and I truly enjoyed it — I felt as if I was in a hands-on seminar!”

What are the unique features of the
Beyond Trigger Points Connect The Dots SystemSM ?
The Going Beyond Trigger Points Connect The Dots System is an advanced continuing education program for Massage Therapists.
It teaches a comprehensive pain therapy system that Massage Therapists can apply in their daily practice. It integrates the work of Dr. Janet Travell, the originator of myofascial trigger point therapy, into a highly accessible system that Massage Therapists can easily apply to resolve their clients’ pain conditions.
Going Beyond Trigger Points Connect The Dots System integrates four essential bodies of therapeutic knowledge into one coordinated and easy to use system:
- Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy to relieve pain caused by myofascial trigger points.
- Advanced myofascial therapeutic massage techniques, such as cross-fiber friction, longitudinal stripping, myofascial spreading, and cyro-stimulated pain-free stretching.
- Neuromuscular re-education protocols to re-train dysfunctional muscular and fascial systems, based on a thorough assessment of the client’s condition, including related activating and perpetuating factors
- Structural Integration / Postural Realignment / Kinesiological Therapies to restore overall healthy posture and structural balance
Some form of myofascial therapy, and even a superficial introduction to trigger points, is often included in the basic curriculum at many massage schools. However, the breadth and depth of knowledge of Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy is rich and vast. It requires time, dedication, and a desire to go beyond routine massage sessions to provide genuine lasting pain relief.
Cathy Cohen, LMT, the developer of the Going Beyond Trigger Points Connect The Dots SystemSM received extensive training in Trigger Point therapy – over 1,000 hours simply to be qualified as an entrylevel Myofascial Trigger Point Therapist.
Cathy’s’ graduate studies included personal mentoring by Dr. Travell, certification as a CORE Structural Integration Therapist from George Kousaleos, and advanced training in Myofascial Release from John Barnes.
“Going Beyond Trigger Points is truly a graduate-level program. After I mastered the complex technical knowledge of trigger points, I had to find my own path to incorporating this into a do- able therapeutic massage session.”
“Out of that experience I developed my Going Beyond Trigger Points Connect The Dots System so that other massage therapists could ‘fast-track’ into becoming qualified Myofascial Trigger Point Therapists. By now, more than 2,600 therapists have taken my seminars and are successfully treating their clients using these techniques.”

“This was my 1st webinar and I truly enjoyed it — I felt as if I was in a hands-on seminar!”
“So convenient and cost-effective! I’ve had to travel over two hours for CEU’s because of a huge lack of hands-on classes being held in my area, and have paid twice as much, plus the cost of gas and hotels!”
“I’ve been taking Cathy’s classes since I graduated from Massage Therapy School 16 years ago, and I credit her workshops to my success as a full-time Massage Therapist. I’ve been labeled as having “magic hands” due to my knowledge of being able to assess and identify quite quickly the troubled muscles involved in my client’s pain and discomfort. I give credit to my training with the BeyondTriggerPoints Seminars where you can start implementing what you’ve learned immediately. I cannot recommend Cathy’s classes highly enough. She’s simply the BEST!”
