FALL WORKSHOP
Instructor: Jason Erickson, BCTMB, CPT, NCBTMB Approved Provider #308
Course: Give Them Hope: Working with People in Pain.
CEU Hours: 14 (9 hours of which are considered hands-on)
Where: Heritage Center
" Give Them Hope: Education, Massage, and Movement for People in Pain. This course introduces important pain science concepts to help licensed massage therapists to understand the neurology of pain and how to use that knowledge in clinical reasoning and client education. This course will include discussion of the nervous system and how it interrelates with the rest of the body, providing a framework of understanding that may enhance all forms of massage and bodywork.
Participants will learn to apply the concept of dermoneuromodulation (DNM) to hands on massage methods. These applications reflect a structured, interactive approach to manual therapy that considers the nervous system of the client 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, and is combined with skin stretch to affect cutaneous fields of nerves that branch outward into skin.
Manual handling is only a part of developing a complete therapeutic context for change- also empowering clients to help themselves is optimal. Included are simple ways of explaining the nervous system and pain mechanisms to clients prior to treatment, plus some simple , effective ways to get clients in pain to start moving with greater ease and confidence.
Please bring to class:
Massage table, linens, pillows/bolsters, blankets, layered active wear or comfortable clothing that permits full range of motion.
