Precision Neuromuscular Therapy for the Neck and Head

19 Continuing Education Hours

Cost: $395 Review Rate: $225

A Great Need

Neck pain accounts for a great percentage of visits to massage therapy offices. Headaches alone account for over 80 million visits to the doctor's office per year and the number of new whiplash cases is over one million per year. While the need is great, only highly targeted treatments are likely to produce immediate relief. To treat the neck well, you must know the corresponding musculature and functional relationships thoroughly. More complex than probably any other area, vertebral mechanics also play a major role in understanding muscle function.

The neck is a daunting area to study, fascinating because of its complexity, yet the neck is a work of artistic beauty. The neck is subject to all the stresses and imbalances of the body below, yet it carries this task remarkably well.

The Neck and Head seminar has several sections. They include:

Contraindications and screening procedures for the neck.
Range of motion restrictions. We will explore limitations in all planes- forward flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation. You will be amazed at the changes PNMT can produce in ROM limits!
Muscular Influences in Headaches
Occular pain
Orofacial Pain

This seminar is designed to be a "hands on" experience and the style of therapy is easy to learn; you can utilize the techniques taught in class immediately. At the end of the seminar, you will put the sections of the seminar together with real world treatment protocols and case studies. We think you will find the PNMT Head and Neck seminar to be immediately and profoundly useful!

Students will also find it a great review of the anatomy and function of the neck musculature.

Do you know. . .

which muscles limit contralateral rotation of the neck?
what the Spurling test is and what it tells you?
what the role of facet inflammation is and what muscles affect it?
what role the anterior muscles serve in whiplash?
what muscles limit capital flexion?
what muscles limit cervical flexion?
what muscle is implicated when a headache disappears after ten minutes of recumbancy
what ligaments can be injured in a whiplash?
what the distinguishing characteristics of cluster headaches are?
what muscles create pain behind the eyes?
what muscle is most likely injured in a lateral whiplash?
