Introduction  

WHAT

Learning how to work with anamnese. Starting to get used to work in multiple layers with different techniques.

WHY

Working with Anamnese is your first step to creating a treatment plan. Learning how deep or superficial you can work and how this feels for your client. 

Basic Anatomy of the Human Body  

WHAT

Introduction in the Anatomy, Physiology & Kinesiology of the Human body. Getting to know the 11 Systems that enable us to participate in the 7 Characteristics of life. Getting to know the tissues of the human body.

WHY

The BodyMind* is an amazing organism. The more we understand about this miracle the better we can help people to heal themselves. Learning techniques is very useful. Knowing why they work even more. We will often use the term BodyMind in this training as in our approach these are not separate.  

The mechanisms and importance of the Nervous System  

WHAT

Together with the endocrine system, the nervous system takes care of reactions and adjustments to internal and external conditions. We learn the difference and function of the CNS ( Central Nervous System) and the PNS (Peripheral Nervous System), the voluntary and the autonomic.

WHY

The Nervous System plays a big role in the ailments we face as a therapist. And in our attempt to resolve them. Understanding its role will increase your possibilities as a therapist.  

Exploring the layers of Fascia  

WHAT

Although Fascia is often mentioned its real qualities are seldom revealed. We will study the different layers of Fascia and how to work on them.

The breathing system, techniques and benefits.  

WHAT

Getting to know your full potential of your respiratory system and the effects the breath has on our BodyMind.
