Two-day Seminars - 14 CEU's
Myofascial Release Therapy
       (1st day 8 hrs, 2nd day 6 hrs - may be taken together or separately.)
Theory and practice of MFR, a gentle approach to releasing fascial restrictions, using light to moderate touch that works with the body’s wholistic, natural healing process to restore flexibility, comfort and ease. Rather than forcing the tissue to release, MFR allows for the tissue to soften and release on its own, without force. MFR works with the body, not on the body.

CranioSacral Therapy
         (1st day 8 hrs, 2nd day 6 hrs - may be taken together or separately.)
Learn to restore deeper relaxation and stress relief for the whole body by balancing the Craniosacral System, the “shock absorber” which surrounds and protects the brain and spinal cord (CNS) from injury, shock and stress. Practice assessing the CS rhythm, correcting imbalances and resetting natural flow using techniques such as still point, soft tissue release and unwinding to support balance and deep healing.

Healing Trauma
           (1st day 8 hrs, 2nd day 6 hrs - may be taken together or separately.)
We will demonstrate and practice Myofascial Release (MFR) and Craniosacral Therapy (CST) techniques for releasing cell tissue restrictions in any part of the body resulting from any kind of physical or emotional trauma. Healing Trauma is based on the concept that restrictions held in the body from experiences of trauma can be released through movement of the fascia throughout the body.  The extremities of the body such as arms and legs are used to release restrictions. Cranio-Sacral Therapy, work on the cranium and spinal fascia, will also be used to release restrictions related to the Central Nervous System.

Energy Balancing Basics 
       (1st day 8 hrs, 2nd day 6 hrs - may be taken together or separately.)
Learn about the Human Energy Field, chakra and meridian locations and functions, and sensing and supporting energy flow throughout the physical/energetic matrix. See following descriptions for more details.
       Chakra Balancing 8 CE Hrs  (Day 1)
Understand the location, functions and dysfunction of energy chakras in the body, and explore various methods of assessing and improving flow and balance with hands on and off the body.  Explore sound, aromatherapy and crystals as adjunct therapies.
        Meridian Balancing with Massage, 6 CE Hrs (Day 2)
Understand the correlation between meridians and organs, body functions and muscles and how to use specific massage (NL) points and brain activation (NV) points to restore balance. Also explore techniques of tapping, acupressure, scar treatment and energy flow to release stress and pain and to “reset” muscle function.

Tips for experienced LMTs, 8 CE Hrs (with Douglas).
   Over the years of teaching, giving, and receiving Myofascial Release, CranioSacral Therapy and Reiki, I have developed ways to work smarter, not harder, so that doing massage is easier on your hands, your body, and your general well-being. I'd like to share these with you and have you share some of your ideas with your peers as well.

Reflexology (Offered in odd numbered years.)
   This ancient method of healing teaches us to find various points on the feet and hands that affect corresponding parts of the whole body in order to strengthen areas of weakness or discomfort. This is done using thumb, finger, and hand massage techniques without the use of oil or lotion. We will also use lymph drainage to determine how healthy feet and legs improve the wellness of the whole body. This class will be especially helpful for people with diabetes and blood stagnation – your clients, friends, family or yourself.

NOTE:  It is very important that you come to the MFR sessions prepared to work in "skin accessible" clothing, so that we don't have to work under sheets. Shorts and a light top work well as long as they are loose fitting.  Lumch will be on your own - local restaurants or brown bag. Tables are provided by the massage school. It's helpful if you can bring a fitted sheet and a face-cradle coner.
