Please join Lauren Christman for a practice-enhancing live webinar open to manual therapists!
In this 8-hour webinar, you’ll learn manual techniques to gently free restrictions in the deepest fascial layer: the dural membranes.
With broad contact and precise engagement of layers, we can mobilize bones in the cranium, spine and sacrum to effect change. Because this layer often goes untreated, these techniques usually bring the spine into better alignment and ease of movement — and they integrate wonderfully with many manual methods for the axial skeleton and cranium.
Techniques will target the dural fascia in:
— the neurocranium, including falx and tentorium,
— the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, and
— the sacrum, with a bridge to the lower appendage.
We’ll review the structure and function of the dura mater, with keen appreciation of their role in coordinating forces in the cranium, spine and sacrum. We’ll ‘fancy it up’ by exploring direct and indirect movement to enhance these techniques.
We’ll also talk about special considerations, such as dural punctures and tears, scoliosis, tethered cord and effects of impact injuries, such as concussion.
Prior experience in structural integration and/or craniosacral recommended, but not required.
Students will need a model to work on during the sessions and to remain on camera for teacher feedback (details upon registration).
To receive continuing education credit, students must successfully complete an on-line quiz following the webinar.
