Neuroenergetic Release® - Modules I & II (Foundational Course in NER System)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  COURSE DESCRIPTION

Foundational Neuroenergetic Release® Seminar

Modules NER I & NER II     *Money Back Guarantee!

Presented by Donald W. Kipp, NCTMB

 NER I and NER II modules must be taken consecutively and are a paired series necessary for a working knowledge of this system.

 This seminar presents:

·         How to enhance palpatory skills both for assessment and treatment objectives.

·         How to determine core distortion patterns.  Learn postural/structural analysis to determine peoples basic patterns of postural/structural asymmetries and dysfunction.

·         The basic theory, philosophy and principles of the deep tissue techniques presented.

·         Three non-force facilitated neuro-somatic release techniques and how to apply them to specific structure.

·         How to non-invasively access and treat the superficial and deep tissues of the body.

·         Four models for locating NER points.

·         How dysfunction in seemingly unrelated parts of the body is related.

·         Protocol for Core Distortion Pattern and symptom release.

·         Progress and post treatment assessment methods.

·         Anatomy review; a study list is sent out on registration.

Prerequisites:

NCTMB, CMT, P.T., O.T., D.C. (*other health professional with advanced base in musculoskeletal anatomy) * instructor approval required.

Target Audience and Intent:

This Seminar is for the massage therapist/bodyworker and other health professional who wish to work in a very results oriented manner.  It is designed to teach new paradigms in massage and manual therapy as well as new and unique protocol and technique.  Emphasis will be placed on learning to analyze any case that presents itself and devising a plan of care as well as specific protocol.  Participants will learn a large number of new anatomically specific protocol. 

 Information is presented personally by lecture and reviewing written manuals.  Additional material is also presented to enhance what is in the manual, so participants are encouraged to take notes. Questions and evaluation situations are presented for participants to analyze. The material is presented in small chunks related by subject matter to make it easier to assimilate. Visual devices and anatomical models are used to aid learning.  Participants do supervised trades in both evaluation and treatment technique to kinesthetically reinforce learning and to enhance palpatory skills.

 Because of the large volume of material covered class size is limited to insure a quality, personal learning experience.  There will be discussion on how to incorporate this new knowledge into your practice.

The greater the participants knowledge of anatomy the greater their learning experience will be.  A study list will be sent out on registration.

 Learning Goals

1. Become familiar with basic theory, philosophy, and principals of Neuroenergetic Release.

2. To have increased palpatory skills and anatomical knowledge.

3. Be able to perform NER Postural/Structural analysis

4. Be able to structurally assess distortions, compensations, asymmetries, develop an understanding of how they are inter-related and form core distortion patterns

5. Be able to use the non-force neuro-somatic release (NER) techniques and apply them to specific structure.

6. Be able to apply a minimum treatment plan for a new case 

Contact hours: 32    NER I and NER II modules must be taken consecutively and are a paired series necessary for a working knowledge of this system. NER I and NER II together make up the Foundational NER Seminar. Each module consists of 16 hrs. instruction. A certificate for 32 contact hrs. will be issued on completion of NER II.

Full attendance of is required to receive a certificate of completion for all contact hrs. NCBTMB require 50 minutes of class participation for each contact hr awarded.

*Class size limited to ensure quality personalized instruction.

Prerequisites: NCTMB, M.D., CMT, P.T., O.T., D.C. (*other health professional with advanced base in musculoskeletal anatomy) * instructor approval required.

Nationally Certified in Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork he specializes in manual therapy techniques for pain relief, injury rehab, postural alignment and health enhancement. As the founder of Neuroenergetic Release® he draws on a wide variety of healing theory and philosophy to develop the techniques that will be most effective and efficient with the least discomfort for each individual client’s needs.

Don has taught his professional bodywork seminars since 1992 and his healing system and philosophy of Neuroenergetic Release® since 1994. He presents programs nationally to Doctors, Chiropractors, Massage Therapists, , Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists and other health professionals. Don is approved by the NCBTMB as a continuing education provider under category A.

Don first became interested in alternative modalities, manual therapy and bodywork after he experienced their healing effects following a back injury. In 1988 he graduated valedictorian from the Lakeside School of Natural Therapeutics in Milwaukee, WI. Don studied advance anatomy and physiology in a Premed. curriculum at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He also has advance studies in: Neuromuscular, Myofascial Release, Muscle Energy, Craniosacral, TMJ Techniques, Sports Massage, and a wide variety of energy and structural bodywork systems.

A believer that health encompasses the total person Don has facilitated support groups, process work and other self-growth endeavors for the past 20 years.
