By the end of this module you will have learned a comprehensive series of strokes to help people who experience neck, back, shoulder and pelvis pain. Upon completion of MER 1 you will be able to give a full back, neck, shoulder, breath and pelvic MER session.
In this training you will learn a unique and valuable method of deep tissue bodywork to help people with back, neck and pelvis pain.
Learn how fascial contraction is responsible for 95% of chronic pain.
Understand the importance of breath and how to regulate the releasing and balancing of the breathing of your clients.
Understand that the pelvis is the center of balance and trust.
Empower and educate clients through teaching Myofascial Unwinding as a deep, intrinsic movement that activates trauma release.
Evaluate clients using Body-Reading, self-reporting, palpation techniques, resonance and intuition.
Refine your ability to touch deeply and work with your own body mechanics.
Develop a “Listening Touch”.
Open the energy system through the body by releasing energy blocks and regulating energy flow.
Focus on the neck, shoulder, back, breath and pelvis.
Experience and learn the 8 point teaching for deep touch.
Through a series of structured, hands-on sessions, you will learn how to systematically release and integrate the spine. You will learn the art and science of seeing holding patterns in the body and their relationship to the client’s emotional holding patterns. You will use this information to develop treatment programs to affect a myofascial integration and energy balancing.
Through a combination of daily meditations, theory, demonstrations and bodywork exchanges with consistent support from the staff, you will learn a holistic approach of myofascial release. This module introduces you to the major hinges of the spine: Lumbar/ Sacral, Diaphragm, Heart, Thoracic Inlet, Atlas/ Occiput and Pelvic release to restore balance. You will learn the art and science of working on the back, neck and pelvis with deep bodywork, assisted stretches, and joint mobilization.
You will learn the structural and functional anatomy of the back, neck and pelvis, and in turn develop the intuition and skills necessary to work with the underlying causes of pain in these areas – especially as they relate to a client’s ability to physically and figuratively “Stand Up” for themselves. You will learn four effective breath release techniques that will assist in this process.
Eight points of sensitive and effective deep bodywork, will be given to you to cultivate skill, clarity and intuition to the touch. I will also teach you the musculature, psychology, and “Myofascial Unwinding” methods of psycho-physical release.
