Requirements
Explore the intricate connection between visceral health and somatic dysfunction in this comprehensive online course. Designed for healthcare professionals and manual therapy practitioners, this course provides an in-depth understanding of visceral diagnosis and evidence-based treatment techniques.
The course begins with an overview of visceral somatic dysfunction diagnosis, focusing on essential clinical tools such as viscerosomatic reflexes, thoracolumbar temperature and tissue texture evaluation, red reflex analysis, and Chapman point palpation. You will also gain insights into visceral autonomic innervation, empowering you to identify and address dysfunction with precision.
Building on diagnostic foundations, the course transitions to treatment modalities for visceral somatic dysfunction. Learn hands-on techniques, including Chapman point stimulation, rib raising, thoracolumbar and suboccipital inhibition, and sacroiliac gapping. Specialized approaches such as abdominal plexus and sphincter releases, intestinal lifts, and liver/spleen pumping will enhance your therapeutic arsenal. Myofascial release techniques for the cervicothoracic and thoracolumbar regions, along with thoracic and pedal pumps, are also covered.
The course concludes with practical exercises to reinforce treatment outcomes, such as diaphragmatic breathing, self-pedal pumping, and mobility stretches for the thoracolumbar and pectoral regions. These techniques empower clients with self-care strategies for long-term well-being.
By the end of this course, you will possess the skills and knowledge to effectively diagnose and treat visceral dysfunction, improving patient outcomes through a holistic approach.
