Peripheral Nerve Manipulation: Lower Body (NM3)

CPD/CPE: 18hrs

Full Fee: $1200inc GST. The early Saver Price of $990 ends on the 7th Nov 2024 for this course.

Course Description

This three day course explores evaluation and treatment techniques for peripheral nerves of the lower body and explores, in detail, the anatomy and function of the peripheral nerves of the lower body. Integrative treatment requires attention to mechanical relationships between the cranium/spine hard frame, and the dural and neural elements. NM provides approaches to address restrictions of the dural and neural components not commonly focused on with musculoskeletal symptoms.

Additionally, traumatic nerve lesions typically do not result in a recognizable, well-defined, clinical picture. Instead a broad spectrum of disturbances can be found. NM treatments change intra- and extra-neural pressure and improve sympathetic function to blood vessels due to the auto-innervation of the sympathetic ganglia and sympathetic innervation of peri-neural connective tissues, both of which are affected with treatment of fixations in the nerve sheaths.

Course Outcomes

Upon completion of this course, participants will have learned:

  • The anatomy and function of the peripheral nerves of the lower body’
  • Typical pain patterns that arise from dysfunction of these peripheral nerves;
  • Evaluation methods and treatment techniques to facilitate normal functioning of these peripheral nerves;
