Webinar Outline:
This live Zoom webinar, this month run by Jing for us will examine how Eastern bodywork systems based on acupuncture points and meridians have a scientific anatomical basis in the fascial system.
What you will learn:
During our launch webinar Jing will talk you through:
- An overview of meridian systems in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Thai massage and their anatomical relevance to intermuscular fascial planes.
- Powerful acupressure points for the treatment of common chronic musculoskeletal disorders including low back pain and neck and shoulder pain.
- How the concept of blockages in ‘qi’ related to areas of altered fascial composition.
- Relevant scientific research showing the parallels between Eastern theory and Western knowledge of fascia.
During this webinar, a hands-on model for integrating both Eastern and Western thinking into bodywork clinical practice will be proposed and you will leave the Zoom call with a range of dynamic new approaches that you can incorporate into your clinical practice.
