Precision Neuromuscular Therapy – Spine & Thorax

Precision Neuromuscular Therapy – Spine & Thorax Seminar – Doug Nelson, NMT (See his profile)
Course timeline
In the PNMT Spine and Thorax seminar, you will learn how to efficiently
evaluate and treat people with various types of back pain involving
the lumbar and thoracic area. In order to accomplish this, you will
learn to clearly identify the anatomical landmarks necessary for great
palpation, identify and address the correct soft tissue structures
that affect the stated pain pattern, and review how these soft tissue
restrictions are tied to movement and everyday complaints. The
soft-tissue components of conditions including scoliosis, bulging and
herniated disks will be explored. We will also address problems of the
SI joint, hip pathologies that masquerade as back pain, and red flags
for treatment you may have missed previously.
This seminar is designed to be a “hands on” experience and the style of
therapy relevant to everyday practice; you can utilize the techniques
taught in class immediately. At the same time, it will sharpen your
anatomy skills and assist you in understanding spinal mechanics. We
will address clinical applications, review the functional applications
that soft tissue plays in back pain, and address common clinical
concerns.
This training is meant to teach you to see, touch, and understand the
truly magnificent role that is the complex series of muscles we call
“the back”. At the end of the training, you will never see the spine in
the same way.

  CE classes for La. State Massage Therapists, Lafayette, La.

                                 Energetic Trauma Release

This class is designed to increase your knowledge regarding working compassionately and effectively with the effects of trauma/chronic stress in your practice. Learn how secondary trauma affects those dealing with trauma and abuse with others. Learn how “triggers” affect a person after the event or trauma is over and how to release them, replacing fear motivated behavior with a sense of calm.

When someone experiences emotional or physical trauma, illness, chronic stress, surgery, suppressed or negative feelings, this causes “energy blocks” in the body, affecting our health and well being. Dr Norm Shealy states-”all psychological/emotional problems are based in anger, guilt, anxiety or depression from past traumas; even slight traumas in our past can have devastating consequences.”

                           Mind, Body Self-Care Strategies

Are you too stressed to relax? This class is about self-healing and why it is so important to take care of ourselves. Do you put everyone else's needs in front of yours so you are the last one taken care of? This class will give you tools and techniques you can use to heal your body and soul and really enjoy your life. As caregivers we need to take care of ourselves in order to be of service to anyone else. Learn stress-warning signs, stress reducers, learn to assess your mind, body, spirit level, meditation, energetic relaxation techniques, labyrinth and much more.

POPULATIONS WHO WOULD BENEFIT:Massage therapists, nurses, therapists, counselors, doctors, EMTs/Paramedics, firefighters, law enforcement, military, veterans, teachers, counselors, PT/OT, clergy, educators, and disaster workers, energy practitioners, any individuals working in high stress environments, or as a self-care model.

Cost: $125 for each class or $195 for both classes (12 CE hours) that can be taken consecutively or on separate weekends. Lafayette, La. Approved as a recognized provider for CE hours for La. State for Massage Therapists for a maximum of 6 hours for each class-open to all interested parties.
