EXTRAORDINARY POST CONFERENCE

POST CONFERENCE INFORMATION

On Monday, April 13, 2015, James Waslaski will teach two four hour classes in a post-conference. Those participants who complete Saturday, Sunday and Monday Waslaski classes will fulfill all of the requirements for the upper body segment toward certification in Integrated Manual Therapy.

Integrated Manual Therapy to Eliminate Multiple Nerve Crush Phenomenon Highlighting Cervical, Shoulder and Arm Work (4 CE hours) This dynamic multimedia presentation will highlight our cervical, shoulder and arm work to eliminate multiple nerve crush phenomenon. The highlight of this seminar will be the hands on techniques that will eliminate the musculoskeletal cause of each area of nerve compression between the brain and the fingertips forever. In addition, therapists will learn life changing techniques to release complicated frozen shoulder problems.
supplies needed: table, linens & lubricant 

 Corrective Exercises for Pain Free Living and Performance Enhancement, (4 CE hours) It is vital for all manual therapists to evaluate and treat overactive and under active muscles throughout the body. When certain muscle groups get tight and facilitated, and opposing muscles get weak and inhibited, it leads to musculoskeletal pain and decreased athletic performance. Based on the stretching protocols of Aaron Mattes, and strengthening exercises from NASM, therapists will learn to eliminate supination and over-pronation of the foot, rotational patterns of the knee, low back pain, cervical pain and shoulder and arm pain. This presentation will take you inside the human body to eliminate joint pain throughout the body, and increase athletic performance to a whole new level.
supplies needed: massage table 

 Registration for the post-conference is one price: $195 for members, non-members and students.
