Date(s): Jul 28 – 30, 2018
Gain effectiveness in freeing the deep patterns in the cranium with this 3-day class! Under the myofascial layers outside the skull and around the jaw, the facial bones create the scaffolding for the mouth, nose, eyes and ears. Learn to distinguish and treat imbalances of the myofascia from problems involving the shape of the face and the alignment of the mandible.

The groundbreaking information presented in this workshop is the result of Sharon’s inquiry into the fascial plasticity of bone. There are two major areas of study in this workshop: Bone Change and Bone Rolling. Sharon will also demonstrate “Two-Handed Torque” for the cranium. This fascinating and unique approach smoothes out irregularities in the cranium, nicely demonstrating the fascial plasticity of spongy bone.
