The National Training Centre (NTC) is now offering a specialist Myofascial Cupping workshop designed for qualified massage therapists and other manual therapy professionals eager to expand their skill set. This one-day, hands-on workshop provides an in-depth understanding of the therapeutic benefits and applications of Myofascial Cupping, equipping participants to incorporate these techniques into their practice effectively.
This workshop is delivered by John Sharkey, a highly respected Clinical Anatomist with over 30 years of experience in manual therapy and a profound knowledge of human anatomy and physiology. John was an integral member of the Irish Olympic medical team for many years, providing advanced therapeutic support and guidance to elite athletes on an international stage. John’s expertise in cupping techniques, especially in optimising athletic performance and recovery, makes him a sought-after educator and practitioner in the field.
Through his extensive clinical experience, John has developed a unique approach to Myofascial Cupping that combines traditional methods with a modern understanding of anatomy and fascia science. His insights and techniques are invaluable for therapists looking to enhance their skills and apply cupping effectively in a clinical or sports setting. Participants in the Myofascial Cupping course will benefit greatly from John’s vast knowledge, hands-on experience, and his passion for advancing therapeutic practices.
What our gradutes say!
Some unsolicited testimonials from our graduates from over the years.
" I had the privilege of treating Sir Chris Hoy of the GB cycling team "
In April 2012 I completed the Certificate level Neuromuscular Therapy course. Since I completed the course I have had massive success and progression. I had several private clients that I attained from advertising in the gym that I was working in, and also worked on a referral basis with physiotherapist David Gardiner owner of Physiotherapyworks in Naas Co.Kildare.
In August 2012 I moved to Perth, Australia where I have enjoyed even more success. I spent 8 months working at Subiaco Sports Massage and while working in this clinic I had the privilege of treating several Olympic athletes including Sir Chris Hoy of the GB cycling team and also Western Force rugby team of the super 15s competition.
I really enjoyed my time at the NTC – we really had a great group and we all keep in touch.

" You will not be disappointed "
I have been in the Sports Massage and the treatment of occupational and sporting injuries profession for 26 years and have attended many courses to gain the necessary qualifications to give my very best to those in my care. I had read a book written by John Sharkey which was well written, extremely informative and an excellent reference source. I subsequently had the pleasure of meeting John and went on to register for a Neuromuscular Therapy programme.
It is an excellent course with lectures of the highest standard delivering essential information and first-rate techniques. Applying them in clinical practice I have seen very positive outcomes in patients of all ages. I highly recommend NTC for all therapists at any stage in their career. You will not be disappointed.

" I will definitely recommend this course to a friend or a family member "
Thank you to John Sharkey and all the NTC tutors. The Advanced European Neuromuscular Therapy course has been an eye-opener for me because of my background in Personal Training and Sports Massage. I have learnt unique ways of treating pain and have been applying these techniques to my existing clients.
In particular, a long-term client of mine with knee chronic pain, after few hours of treatment her knee pain has reduced by 80 percent.
Once again thank you to all NTC tutors this would not have been possible without you. It is a shame the course has come to an end but I also can’t wait to treat people with chronic pain and do a diploma in Neuromuscular Therapy. I will definitely recommend this course to a friend or a family member.

" The education you have given me is truly going to develop me as a practitioner "
Thanks once again for an inspiring and enlightening weekend (although my wife’s upper trapezius muscles may disagree!). Learnt loads and I am very excited about the future of my practice.
Although already incredibly busy I find treating people with pain much more interesting and fulfilling than a runner with a tweaked calf. The education you have given me is truly going to develop me as a practitioner in such a dramatic way.
Thanks, John. Sad the course is coming to an end but will thoroughly recommend to others and will look to do the Masters in the future.

" My experience at NTC was an enjoyable and positive one "
My experience at NTC was an enjoyable and positive one. This is where I realised my interest in Anatomy, Physiology and caring for people and is the main reason I’ve decided to go back to studying Nursing.
I met some fantastic people during my time at NTC and what I learned has played a huge part in me getting a place on Nursing studies.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff and tutors for guiding me to where I am now.

" If it wasn't for Larry I would have let my nerves get the best of me "
I have just sat my NMT exams and if it wasn’t for Larry, one of my tutors who helped me out, I would have let my nerves get the best of me. I also wish to thank the rest of the tutors and staff for all their help over the past 18 months.
