In response to Charles West:

Dale Hill at the Massage Board DOES NOT recommend advising people NOT to take Law/Board Rules & Regulations classes until the new laws are in place.  She stated that this was not a recommendation of the Board and that, in fact, it is best to hold these classes on a regular basis. Therapists who wait until the last minute sometimes run into trouble. Included in Ms. Sharbers classes is the information needed for each therapist to update themselves on changes in laws or board rules. It is, after all, each therapists responsibility to stay abreast of changes. With that said, we will still be conducting a Law & Ethics class on Nov. 5, 9am-1pm at Anthem.

Become a Continuing Education Provider- or just teach like one!

Teaching Skills for the Workshop Leader

Chicago, Illinois - Thursday-Sunday, November 3-6, 2011
Times: 9:30AM to 6:00PM on Thursday-Saturday. 9:30AM to 12:30PM on Sunday. Additional optional non-credit hours on Sunday 1:30PM-3:30PM

Location: Courtyard Marriott Oakbrook Terrace

This is a true workshop, limited to 12 participants. Yes, you will get lots of information about designing your class, marketing it, and actually teaching it. But you will also put what you learn to use right in this workshop. Come prepared to write syllabi, learning objectives and lesson plans for your class, actually try out part of your presentation with your classmates, prepare a written plan for implementation of your marketing strategy, decide what level of certification is right for you, and if it is National Certification, actually begin to fill out the NCBTMB application at the end of the class. The learning you will get in this class will apply to all state agency requirements, and even other disciplines.

Thank you Charles for posting.  Please let me know when you're having a class on the new rules.

Comment by Charles West on August 20, 2011 at 9:29am

At the August 8th, 2011, meeting, the Tennessee Massage Licensure Board changed to effective dates for pending (and long delayed) rule changes to January 1, 2012. Most of us have already had a class on the current rules. So I will not teach a Law/Rules class until the new rules are released and in effect. And, I recommend that you wait until you can take a class on the new rules.

 

The effective date for Continuing Education rule changes was changed to January 1, 2013, so that they would not change in the middle of a cycle.

The Magic of Muscle

 

This Class will be limited to 25 students to ensure one on one time with the instructor.

Scapular Influences on Neck, Hand and Gleno-humeral Joint Function

12 CEs

September 17/18 2011, Saturday/Sunday 10:00 AM-5:00 PM

Anthem Career College

560 Royal Parkway

Nashville, TN 37214

 

Description of Class

This weekend we shall explore the influence of scapular positioning, scapular stabilization and the phenomenon of reciprocal inhibition as possible hidden factors in neck, hand and gleno-humeral joint function. Also explored will be the role of muscles that act as relocators of the humeral head into the glenoid fossa during the strong distractive forces produced during arm movements.

 

This weekend will be divided into four sessions:

Scapular Positioning: Pectoralis minor

Scapular Stabilization Serratus Anterior and Rhomboids

Reciprocal Inhibition: Anterior Serratus and Latissimus Dorsi: Hidden Nemesis in Neck Function

Relocators: Coracobrachialis and Long Head of the Triceps

 

For our treatment modalities, we will explore the influences of the muscle

Spindle cell mechanism and Golgi tendon organs.

 

 

Please review the following Laws:

Davis

If muscle ends are brought closer together, then the pull of tonus is increased, thereby shortening the muscle which may even cause hypertrophy.  If muscle ends are separated beyond normal, then tonus is lessened or lost, thereby weakening the muscle. This can be seen in muscle imbalances where one ser of hypertonic muscles have shortened and become hypertrophied while the antagonists have weakened in response to their being stretched beyond normal.  A person with rounded or forward rolled shoulders will have tight, hypertrophied pectoralis major and minor muscles while their rhomboids will be weak. When an impulse has passed through a certain set of neurons to the exclusion of others, it will tend to take the same course on a future occasion and each time it traverses this path the resistance will be less

 

 

 When the agonist is firing and the affected joint moves, the antagonist group will be inhibited.  This is the basis for coordinated movements of the musculo-skeletal system.

 

 

Please know the origin, insertion and action of the following muscles:

Serratus anterior, Latissimus dorsi, Rhomboids, Pectoralis major, Pectoralis minor, Coracobrachialis, Triceps, long head, Rectus and Oblique abdominals, Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, Subscapularis

 

 

The cost of $325 can be made by check or credit card. Due to the times we are in, we will accept two payments. The initial payment is $200 and the balance of $125 will be due the following month.

 

Cancelation Policy for this class- A thirty day notice is required for full refund due to class cap of 25.  This ensures that someone else has the opportunity to attend, anything less than a 30 day notice will be negotiated with the instructor on a case by case incident.
