Precision Neuromuscular Therapy
PNMT Headache Seminar
Three Hour Seminar: $60
One of the most common reasons that clients seek massage/manual therapy is for the relief of headache pain. For the therapist to provide adequate intervention, a great deal of headache knowledge is necessary. While general massage may help through stress reduction, more targeted soft-tissue strategies can produce stellar results that will astonish your clients. Depending on the type of headache, manual therapy can be an extremely important treatment or one to be avoided.
Do you know. . .
o How to recognize when symptoms point to something far more serious than a simple headache?
o What the significance of the trigeminal nerve is in headache issues?
o Why phonophobia is an important symptom?
o What the relationship of soft tissue tightness is to cervicogenic headaches?
o Where the typical trigger point referral patterns are?
o How and why to use headache diaries?
o How to recognize cluster headaches?
o How to recognize analgesic rebound?
In this seminar, you will learn very important information to understand the different types of headaches and the neurophysiology behind them. Beyond being immediately useful, the physiology of headaches is an amazing story. You will be fascinated with the current research and see the immediate usefulness of manual therapy in dealing with the soft-tissue component of headaches. Perhaps more important, you will know when soft-tissue therapy is not appropriate, perhaps dangerous.
You will learn soft-tissue strategies for dealing with headaches, covering trigger point therapy, structural symmetry, myofascial therapy, and vertebral dynamics. You will be amazed at how much information is conveyed in three hours!
