Course outline
The unit is an Advanced Bioelectric Meridian Therapy modality that applies a comprehensive approach to the treatment of joints, soft tissues, nerves and possible organs.
In this one and half days intensive course, you will learn an integrative approach to assessment and treatment of the structural relationship between the spine, shoulder girdle, ribs, meridian lines, acupuncture points and organs using the body’s natural bioelectric energy. Blockages along the meridian lines prevent Qi flow through the body which creates tension in our musculoskeletal, nervous and visceral system. Dysfunction of the meridian lines can be a result of muscle tone, scar tissues, adhesion/nodules/trigger point, illness, trauma, posture, stress and more.
Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned:
- Identify in detail the 6 upper extremity Meridian lines.
- Identify in detail the acupuncture points which might contribute to the dysfunction.
- Identify which of 5 elements contribute to the dysfunction and suggest appropriate manipulation techniques to improve the recovery of the dysfunction.
- Describe the typical pain patterns of the dysfunction and how they relate to the nerves, muscles, fascia and visceral system.
- Demonstrate evaluation methods and treatment techniques to facilitate normal functioning of these areas.
- Determine the relationships between multiple sites of non-optimal alignment, biomechanical control and decide where the best place is to intervene. Finding the primary driver/dysfunction.
- Identify the relationship between the head, neck and shoulder girdle.
