Steven Goldstein (Melbourne, Australia) presents this course
which provides the manual therapist with skills and
techniques that utilize direct compressive and indirect osteopathic autonomic
nervous system methods for the release of myofascia.
Participants will:
- Obtain an understanding of myofascial
treatment methods and modalities and how these methods/modalities are
utilized within the scope of Integrative Fascial Release
- Obtain a basic understanding of the concept
of Myo-fascial anatomy and structure , plus signs and symptoms of fascial
contracture.
- Obtain an understanding of the most current
evidenced based research concerning the field of connective tissue including
the neurobiology and neurophysiology concerning recent myofascial theories.
- Practice technique application skills in
relation to myofascial releasing.
- Palpate and understand various tension
lines of myofascial restriction.
- Palpate and experience the release of
various tension lines of myofascial restriction.
- Obtain a basic understanding of the
physiology of how the Autonomic Nervous System’s discharge facilitates
soft- tissue release.
- Begin to value the effects of myofascial
release as a result of client feedback and personal experience.
- Experience some level of competence while
performing passive release of transverse planes, superficial fascia, and
facial unwinding of local soft-tissue restriction.
- Understand the principles of imagery and
kinaesthetic movement in relation to supporting the occurrence of active
myofascial releases.
- Identify some level of value in relation to
the use of imagery and kinaesthetic movement as a support technique.
- Understand the concepts of passive
positional release and practice techniques in passive positional release.
- Understand the concepts, practice technique
and experience engaging barriers to joint range of motion and/or fascial
restrictions that limit range of motion.
- Palpate and practice myofascial-releasing
techniques from a side-lying position.
- Understand concepts, practice
palpation of spiral and rotational barriers to the extremities and the torso
of the body
- Begin to develop personalized adaptations
of techniques that integrate material to his/her own personal experience,
style and professional practice.
