Revolutionise Your Manual Therapy Practice with DNM
The Art And Science Of Changing “NO-Ciception” To “YES-Iception”
Join the UK’s most advanced workshop for manual therapy, Dermoneuromodulation. Blending pain science, advanced techniques and movement integration for superior patient outcomes and pain relief.
Welcome to manual therapy of the 21st Century!
DermoNeuroModulating, or -tion, is a structured, interactive explanatory model for manual therapy that considers the nervous system of the patient from skin cell to sense of self.
Techniques are slow, light, kind, intelligent, responsive and effective. Positioning of limbs and trunk affects deeper nerve trunks (by shortening and widening their container), and is combined with skin stretch directed toward cutaneous fields of nerves that branch outward into skin (which may draw neural structure further through its container).
It is prudent to remember that manual handling of a patient’s physicality is only a small part of developing a complete therapeutic context for change – while optional, it can also be optimal.

Tutor - Daniel Williams
Daniel – The MVMNT Therapist, is an MSK Therapist / Strength Coach in Birmingham, UK. Having started his journey as a Personal Trainer when he was 18, he strived to find the best courses and people to learn from doing multiple CPD and Diplomas in many areas including Biomechanics Coaching, the Movement Therapy Diploma, Load Management, S&C for Therapists, Motivational Interviewing, DNM and many more.
He has had the pleasure of working with a wide range of people including the Disabled, Sedentary as well as Professional Athletes. The multifaceted approach he embodies consists of up to date, evidenced principles and programming which tends to attract a lot of people who come to us as a last resort, having tried many other available avenues available to them. Among these people there seems to be a growing amount of patients with chronic pain and neurological conditions, especially in recent years.
Daniel now teaches what he has learnt and honed over the years to other therapists and coaches. These mainly include being the only DNM UK educator and also taking over the teaching and education of Gary Mendoza’s Stages of Change courses on “Behaviour Change and Motivational Interviewing”.
In addition to teaching CPD workshops and courses, he has had the great pleasure of speaking and delivering live demonstrations at Therapy Expo for the past 7 years, the UK’s largest MSK conference and expo.
