TREATING THE HEAD, FACE, TRUNK, LIMBS

This workshop is a multi-level approach and focuses on four interrelated areas and syndromes where dysfunctions occur.:

• TOXICITY
• CIRCULATION / LYMPHATIC FLOW
• IMMUNE SYSTEM
• INFLAMMATION ( inside/outside )

First ,the theory of circulatory / lymphatic disorders are examined from a Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective . Secondly, a hands – on approach is used where the modalities of a. acupressure b. essential oils c. cupping and c. manual lymphatic drainage ( Vodder style ) are used in sequence . In addition visceral manipulation is used on organs like the Spleen ( the largest lymphatic gland) The result is a synergistic blend that is systemic and HOLISTIC in the outcome. Results are deep and long-lasting because many physiological systems , like, the endocrine system and not just the muscular or circulatory system get addressed.

Therefore, this is a truly MEDICAL MASSAGE COURSE

The goal and outcome for the student is as follows:

• Evaluate the signs and symptoms  of the client who has : Toxicity

( emotional and physical ) ,Circulatory/lymphatic disorders , Inflammation, Immune system weaknesses

• Compare the benefits of treatments involving acupressure, essential oils, cupping and manual lymphatic drainage
• Identify and distinguish important acupressure points and meridians involved in healing inflammations, circulatory disorders, toxicity and weak immune systems
• Set up a protocol and perform a blend of treatments that include acupressure, essential oils, cupping and manual lymphatic drainage
• Evaluate results and compare with conditions before and after.

PERSONAL OBSERVATION: I have observed how within two hours of teaching , students with severe leg edema have lost inches around their ankles, feet and knees . The skin of their edematous legs also improved dramatically.

THE COURSE FOCUSES ON

• Theory of lymphatic flow from a Western and Eastern perspective:
• Increasing the flow of oxygen and blood to the facial area, neck , trunk and limbs
• Toning, tightening and detoxification of skin and organ systems
• Better mental alertness, focus and relaxation for the client
• Emotional and lymphatic cleansing through the use of essential oils
• Preventive maintenance

Traditionally, through the use of Acupressure and special manipulative massage strokes, the treatment goes beyond Swedish massage
