Cracking the Code

What you're about to witness and make your own are nine effective approaches to unraveling a common pain pattern that, ironically, often goes unrecognized!

+ About 70% of my clients come in with hip/back imbalances:

+ More than half of those have already seen other practitioners, unsuccessfully.

+ Discovery happens during assessments.

+ The code will be the correct sequence of techniques that pinpoint and ease the real culprit(s) causing the imbalance.

Why nine approaches?

+ Nine client complaints give us enough choices to begin narrowing down the search.

+ Verbal and visual input reflects recent changes in habitual movements, trauma, stress, and environment.

+ Body feedback during assessment palpations directs with less guesswork.

+Fibrotic tissue and unexpected joint fixations, for example, often tell us to slow down, modify, or switch to the nearest technique.

+ Consider these systematic techniques to be a giant, living flowchart, with enough overlap and process of elimination to find your clients’ unique pathways.

OBJECTIVES

* In this course students will learn:

* How to observe before palpation starts, and spot chronic pain patterns

* How to discover why erector spinae muscles are tight only on one side

* Which musculoskeletal relationship can cause a tautness in hamstrings?

* Location of the source of chronically tight rotational hip patterns that often go unrecognized

* How to assess and test for rotational patterns

* Assessment skills for the musculoskeletal system for possible causes or contributing factors to low back tightness

* Protocols to reduce low back tension in a chronic pain pattern

* How to assess the lamina groove fibrotic tissue for dysfunctions and some causes of curvature of the spine

* Appropriate techniques designed to change muscular and fascial structures to improve breathing, range of motion and posture

OUTCOMES

* Students will be able to:

* Show a technique to release a client’s stuck ilium

* Understand how to free up the stuck ASIS

* Identify tissues involved in hip rotational patterns

* Test for and assess hip rotational imbalances

* Identify a key ligament in the gluteal area that links several muscles to their tightness

* Demonstrate how to free up stuck, glued down hamstrings

Identify several techniques to improve a client’s posture

Demonstrate how to free up the deeper layers by using bones as levers

Show improvement in their client’s gait

Apply a specific technique to increase flexibility of the spinal column

Apply techniques to decrease functional leg length discrepancy

Demonstrate the techniques to improve breathing
