This course, the first of
four specialized courses on the road to certification, focuses on the low back
and pelvis. Paul St. John and his colleagues have developed this course
based upon extensive research and clinical study. Once you have taken Posturology 101 and have learned to analyze and chart
dysfunctional postural patterns, you will begin the steps needed for Level 1
certification in Integrative Neurosomatic
Therapy.
Integrative Approaches to
Low Back Pain isolates 15 muscle groups effecting the
low back by the origin, insertion and function of each individual muscle.
You will be taught the answers to “Why do we treat?, a
section of the manual that details possible pain causing dysfunctions and how
they affect other functions of the body. Trigger points will be
identified in each area along with associated patient symptoms. Paul St.
John will share with you specific treatment for each area in a step by step – hands
on manner. You will be able to implement the most effective treatment
methods in your own practice after one weekend .
Throughout the course,
each muscle group section will include specific stretches and strengthening
exercises for your patients to practice between treatments and subsequently,
after treatments conclude. These are designed to fully benefit the
particular area of treatment for a pain free patient.
