Seminar Format:
These seminars focus on the entire body, with emphasis on restoring pain free range of motion throughout the body and integrating complete structural balance.  Practitioners will address chronic pain and other injury conditions with emphasis on understanding and correcting the causes and pathology of each specific condition.  This format includes assessment, treatment and individualized client home care.


Assessment:
History taking and an ongoing process of evaluation to allow the practitioner to match the appropriate modality with the exact underlying condition.

Treatment:
Practitioners will format a unique multidisciplinary approach to restore structural balance and eliminate pain based on the information obtained in the initial assessment.  Medical precautions will be addressed.


Client Self Care:
Clients will be given an individually designed home care program based on the assessment and treatment for their specific condition. They will then be educated to eliminate dysfunctions due to trauma, repetitive motions and poor postural patterns.


Orthopedic Massage:
A Structural Approach to Pain Management

Orthopedic Massage involves therapeutic assessment, manipulation and movement of locomotor soft tissues to reduce or eliminate pain and dysfunction. A unique multidisciplinary approach is utilized to restore structural balance throughout the body which will allow you to focus on the prevention and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal dysfunctions, chronic pain and sports injuries. The primary modalities taught include functional assessment, myofascial release, cross fiber gliding strokes, neuromuscular therapy, scar tissue mobilization techniques, p.n.f. stretching, neuromuscular re-education, strengthening, and specific client home care protocols. The combination of these techniques will allow you to obtain immediate and permanent results in even the most challenging and complicated clients.

 

*Quotes from former five day seminar participants:

"Five days of practice was perfect. A seven day course would be even more perfect".  Tony Ransdell

"The 5 day is very valuable because of repetition of material"  Kurt Johnson

"5 day seminars are the ticket to maximize absorption of material"   Christy Kruse

"By the time the fifth day comes, it is truly amazing how all the work just comes together"    Mary Beth Voiron
