Project Description
COURSES INFORMATION
Each course fee is $550 (Including applicable GST)
The Biodynamic Myofascial Mobilization courses take the manual therapist through a particular region addressing all tissue types within the area of focus using fascial principles & approaches to maximize the patient’s long-term resolve. Tissue types considered in each region are osseous, ligamentous, tendinous, muscular, joint, viscera plus more, and are approached using direct or indirect loading techniques, & discussion of visceral manipulation or craniosacral therapy if indicated. Discussion around integrating these techniques is always a part of each course & we encourage those attending to be open to new experiences & ideas.
**For license manual therapists only
THE CERVICAL REGION
MAY 26-27, 2023
Friday-Saturday
9:30am – 5:30pm
Lead Instructor:
Heather Gittens RMT
As in the other integrative courses, we teach techniques for the Osseous, Ligamentous, Muscular & Visceral components of the cervical region. We explore the relationships between each and common complaints & dysfunction of the region and it’s relationship to the rest of the body. Particular attention is paid to the Investing Fascia of the cervical spine, the Atlanto-Axial joint space, the Esophagus & the upper ribs. The visceral component is primarily discussed or demonstrated as it is too involved for a 2-day course to fully cover.
THE LUMBO-PELVIC
REGION
OCTOBER 20-21, 2023
Friday/Saturday
9:30am – 5:30pm each day
Lead Instructor:
Heather Gittens RMT
The pelvis doesn’t have to be so complicated!!! This workshop is designed to demystify the pelvis by assessing & treating it three dimensionally through the osseous structures (ilia, ischia, pubis), ligaments (inguinal, iliolumbar), myofascia and discussion of viscera (colon, bladder, uterus) plus how each are related to the other and the body globally. The visceral component is primarily discussed or demonstrated as it is too involved for a 2-day course to fully cover.
THE THORAX
No 2023 Dates are Scheduled at this time.
Check back for Spring 2024!!
Lead Instructor:
Heather Gittens RMT
Using techniques for the Osseous, Ligamentous, Muscular & Visceral components for the thorax, we explore the relationships between each and common complaints & dysfunction of the region and it’s relationship to the rest of the body. Special attention is paid to the pleura of the lungs & their suspensory ligaments, esophagus, the rib cage & it’s articulations, the manubrio-sternum relationship, clavicles, Rib 1 & 2, the scalenes & subclavius muscles as well as the mediastinal tissue. The visceral component is primarily discussed or demonstrated as it is too involved for a 2-day course to fully cover.
