You will feel “Cranial Motion” within the first hour. These motions are variations in muscle contraction. These motions tell you where the muscle tension is slightly greater.

     6 CE hours $120.00 ($90.00 early)   
Also called “The Muscle Whisperer” class. You will learn to communicate with the person’s subconscious brain, like animal communication, through muscle touch. Our touch says, “Hey, do you want to relax this?” If the muscle softens a little that’s like, “Maybe. I’ll try a little and see if anything bad happens.” This dialogue continues back and forth for the whole session. It’s helpful, stress-reducing and fun to be able to translate this nonverbal language for yourself and for the recipient. One hands-on exercise and the rest is group-discussion. Time for your actual cases and questions.

NATURAL HEALING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NORMAL AND NATURAL IN ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENT PLAN (THERAPEUTICS/SOAP)

     5 CE hours $100.00 ($75.00 early) 
Two people are in the same accident. One forms trauma and the other does not. Why is this? A lot has to do with the interpretation at the time, and the ongoing interpretations. Muscle guarding is not forever but is the physical manifestation of their interpretation that they are still at risk. You will learn to speak with recipients to help them understand their body’s reactions so their guarding can reduce over time. No hands-on. Group discussion with time for your actual cases and questions.

     5 CE hours $100.00 ($75.00 early)  
Are people better off if we restore them to the time before their ailment began? In the big picture of their life, their symptoms are ways to gain something more, to live larger.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF ETHICS FROM PLATO TO SPINOZA
     6 CE hours $120.00 ($90.00 early)

THE VOLTAGE MODEL: A MUSCLE RELAXES AS THE BRAIN REDUCES VOLTAGE TO THE MUSCLE (MUSCLE PHYSIOLOGY)
     5 CE hours $100.00 ($75.00 early)
     Category:  Therapeutic Massage
A muscle is tense when the brain sends more voltage to the muscle than is natural. Muscle relaxation isn’t something the muscle does, but something the brain does.

One hands-on trade with group discussion and time for your actual cases and questions.
