SEMINAR PROGRAM
Day 1:Medical Massage Protocol for Lower Back Pain (Lumbalgia)
Lower Back Pain (LBP) is a general term for various syndromes that contribute to this widespread condition. In other words, it is a multifaceted enemy. Clinical success depends on the therapist’s ability to correctly identify and target the initial triggers, rather than secondary syndromes, which are often the most prominent.
During this course, we will cover the anatomy and pathology of the lumbar area, as well as the necessary evaluation and testing skills to develop a correct treatment strategy for tension in the Lumbar Erectors, the Quadratus Lumborum muscle, and rotators.
Day 2: Medical Massage Protocol for Osteoarthritis Hands-On Training Course
This class covers Osteoarthritis (OA) and the chain of pathological events that trigger OA. We will first discuss how to evaluate the soft tissues and joints affected by OA. Afterward, we will showcase the hands-on application of a Medical Massage protocol used to decompress any affected joints and diminish or stop the destructive processes within the cartilage and subchondral bone. During class, we will use knee OA as a clinical example.
Day 3: Soft Tissue Trauma: Leg Compartment Syndrome and Plantar Fasciitis
During the first part of the class, we will teach therapists how to ‘read’ large hematomas to accelerate tissue recovery and prevent the side effects of soft tissue trauma, including fascial adhesions and muscle shortening.
In the second part of the class, we will cover evaluation and Medical Massage protocols for all Leg Compartment Syndromes, and we will conclude the training with hands-on training in a Medical Massage protocol for Plantar Fasciitis.
