Body-Awareness^®

Postural/Structural Analysis and Introduction to Neuroenergetic Release® 

• Postural/structural evaluation protocol for the complete body and recording procedures.
• A one page complete structural evaluation form you can use in your practice.
• How to determine the core distortion pattern (CDP's) of structural/postural asymmetries and distortions.
• How postural/structural variances relate to symptoms or conditions.
• How to develop a treatment protocol based on structural goals.
• Methods to enhance palpatory and evaluation skills
• A general demonstration of NER techniques and an overview of the principles behind them.
• Three deep tissue facilitated (non-force) release techniques are defined and reviewed.
• A pre and post treatment structural evaluation of a model client.
• Hands on techniques for the shoulder, rotator-cuff and upper extremity
• A handout outlining the above
• Appropriate anatomy will be briefly reviewed
• We strongly recommend  review  of the shoulder, rotator-cuff and upper arm and forearm.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

This presentation is designed for a larger audience of  therapists and bodyworkers of varying levels of experience. This is an introduction to a much larger system. The material presented will stimulate new ideas and challenge paradigms in therapy for professional use as well as teach some new take home techniques. Therapists should increase their efficacy by enhancing palpatory and evaluation skills and by using any technique they know in a more efficient protocol framework. It is appropriate for a chapter meeting or educational conference.

Information is presented personally by lecture and reviewing written outlines. Additional material is also presented to enhance what is in the outline, so participants are encouraged to take notes. Visual devices are used to aid learning. Trades are used to practice new palpatory and structural evaluation skills. Participants will do a limited number of guided trades to kinesthetically reinforce the facilitated (non-force) release techniques presented.

A certificate for 8 contact hours will be presented at completion of class.
