About the Course
The vast majority, of commonly reoccurring headaches are of muscular origin. Current research will be presented, using a full-color power-point presentation on trigger point development and referred pain patterns, showing the contribution of an active TP to the typical headache experience. This course will itemize all muscles that contribute a referred pain pattern to the head, face, and jaw. Trigger Point development will be explained and demonstrated using a 3D model of a sarcomere, the contractile unit of a muscle. Migraine headaches will receive special attention and, also what differentiates a migraine from any other type of headache. Each muscle has its own unique and documented pain pattern. Multiple, active TP’s at the same time can produce wide ranging and sometimes overlapping symptoms. Treatment protocols will be demonstrated. After this class, each attendee will be able to specialize in the treatment of muscular related headaches for a more successful office practice.

Cupping Therapy is different than all other manual techniques, with or without instruments. The negative pressure produced during cupping therapy offers a distraction to the tissues allowing for increased blood flow and lymph drainage, improved movement and overall tissue healing & recovery. This stands in contrast to the shearing that is present with muscle stretching and all other myofascial treatments. Despite its popularity, there has traditionally been a gap in the literature for the appropriate dosage, timing, and frequency for the proper application of cupping for musculoskeletal problems.
During this (live) web-based course you will gain an in depth understanding on how to increase or regress the intensity of cupping and therefore making it easier to program this treatment appropriately. The demonstrations will show you various tools for cupping and you will view general treatment strategies to apply cupping both static and dynamically. From Cervico-Thoracic to lower leg, ankle and foot you will take a step by step approach and learn the most effective ways to combine patient movement and cupping techniques. You can expect to leave with the confidence and knowledge needed to develop cupping session for your patient based on your assessment and the individual needs of your patient.

Manual Therapy options are endless in quantity and finding the right combination for your patients can be quite daunting. By combining multiple manual therapy techniques, you can quickly and effectively make improvements setting your patients up for success. Take your IASTM techniques to the next level by utilizing IASTM in combination with other soft tissue treatments that complement each other you will develop a fully integrated manual therapy approach that helps expedite your patients recovery. The latest evidence shows that manual therapy, and IASTM specifically, can reduce pain and improve function by restoring optimal movement, and you will learn how this is how we can treat within the BPS model and how you can use pain science education to explain this treatment method to your clients During this course you will see demonstrations of IASTM techniques that can be combined with active movements. You will also learn to understand how to differentiate techniques to reduce pain, reduce tone, or facilitate muscular contractions.

About the Course:
For injured clients seeking relief from their pain and movement dysfunctions, a quality massage therapist should seek short- and long-term solutions. This requires knowing what tissues are at fault and how. While this may seem simple and obvious (for example, pain in the neck is due to some neck muscle dysfunction) precisely pinpointing the causes of pain and dysfunction can be more complex. While it may not always be possible to know exactly what tissues are primarily at fault, there are many tests for soft tissue and joint injuries that therapists can conduct prior to (or even during) the massage treatment. Commonly referred to as “orthopedic tests,” these are assessments that test for skeletomuscular injuries and help sort out whether an injury is functional (muscular) or structural (skeletal) in nature.

Clinical outcomes for patients with chronic back and neck pain has historically been poor. Why? Patients with chronic back or neck pain need more than hands-on treatment and exercises. Pain is complex and a systematic approach is necessary to evaluate the type of pain most dominant in a patient’s clinical presentation. The subjective interview should review potential red and yellow flags. The objective evaluation should prioritize what areas need to be addressed first. Patients need and want knowledge; thus, patient education is paramount. This course expounds on pain assessment, pain neuroscience education, as well as pain treatment and approach.

About the Course
Classic massage training typically includes little, if any, understanding of the physical and physiological challenges of sports activities. Therefore, many massage therapists lack full appreciation of the tools and value massage therapy can hold for enhancing sports training, participation, and recovery. This course expounds on the field of massage and athletes to include strength and conditioning, athletic training, and respected research related to the specific physiology of athletic pursuits. This course explores the demands unique to sports, and how the body responds to training and competition. A thorough didactic of the many techniques available to massage therapists in assisting athletes before, during, and after competition is provided.

About the Course
Should pain science education be a hands-off approach? Some believe because there is limited research supporting the use of manual therapy, there is no need for hands-on treatment.
However, manual therapy is a great pain management technique, especially if applied with a bio- psycho-social approach. This course explains how manual therapy and pain science education are not mutually exclusive, but rather, are a great complement to each other. Three different classifications of pain are discussed as well as how manual therapy can be incorporated to treat these types of patient presentations. Understanding what type of pain is most dominant for your patient will direct your treatment plan.

So many people suffer from painful muscle trigger points as the result of stress, tension, and injury. The pain interferes with everyday activities and results in mobility impairments and participation limitations. Understand the nature of trigger points, (TPs) and how abnormal neurophysiological reflexes contribute to painful muscle tension and mobility impairments. Positional release (PRT) interventions modify abnormal reflexes to relax and release painful muscle tension, improving flexibility, strength, and function. Identify specific positions to manage TPs throughout the body, and objectively improve function and mobility. Discuss the research on the effectiveness of positional release techniques for pain reduction, strength and flexibility improvement, and performance enhancement.
