Con-Ed Courses for May 2015 MODULAR CLINICAL ASSESSMENT “2-MINUTE ASSESSMENT” - LOWER BODY Michael Lott, RMT & Nayida Bowen, MScPT, BSc 5/10/15, 10-6, $175/$199 + HST, 3.5 CEUs - Cat A ABDOMINAL VISCERA: LIVER, STOMACH, DUODENUM Monica Noy, D.O.M.P., RMT 05/10/15, 10-6, $175/$199 + HST, 3.5 CEUs, Cat A Being able to quickly evaluate and re-evaluate a client’s physical status from visit to visit is crucial to providing the best possible treatment for that client. It helps the therapist to focus their treatment, and to give the appropriate education to the client post massage. This course takes a muscle memory approach to orthopedic assessment and reduces testing protocols to bite-sized groupings that students will be able to perform in modules of 2 minutes or less. These assessment protocols will yield accurate results with your clients. This one day course will present a detailed anatomical review of the liver, stomach and duodenum - position, fascias, innervation, function and mobility - as well as a variety of techniques from sensorial listening, assessment of fascial restrictions to direct fascial manipulation and treatment of the contents. NOVEL APPROACH TO TREATING AXILLARY WEB SYNDROME Paul Lewis, BA, RMT, NCBTMB 5/24/15, 10-2, $90/$100 + HST, 2 CEUs - Cat A CANCER AND CLIENT CARE 1: THEORY AND PRACTICE - UPPER BODY Hanifa Menen, N.D. and Jeff Appelmann, N.D. 5/24/15, 10-1, $90/$100 + HST, 1.5 CEUs - Cat A Axillary web syndrome (AWS), also called lymphatic cording, typically presents in the weeks after axillary surgery for breast cancer. This painful condition is likely angiolymphatic in origin. It restricts use of the upper extremity and has no established treatment although physical therapy and other approaches have been used to variable effect. We apply therapeutic massage techniques using Dynamic Angular Petrissage (DAP) with the aim of quickly but gently reducing upper extremity pain and improving range of motion. DAP is a prerequisite for this course. Introduction to an overview of the most prevalent cancers in the general public and the common presentations of these clients. Therapists will learn how to safely assess cancer therapeutic needs of clients prior to massage treatments, and how to manage ongoing health concerns as clients work through possible chemotherapy and/or radiation treatments. Indications and contraindications for massage treatments will be discussed. Practical portion will help teach therapists acupressure points that are most indicated for this group with explanation of theory behind practice.

MANUAL APPROACH TO WORKING IN THE PELVIC REGION Katerina Pek, MD (cz), RMT 5/30/15-5/31/15, 10-6, $335/$365 + HST, 7 CEUs - Cat A This course is based on the principles of Dynamic Posture and Spiraldynamik. It emphasizes improvement of the function of the pelvic region – especially normalization of the muscle tone and circulation, and uses myofascial techniques to loosen scar tissue in the abdominal cavity. It is an effective supportive approach for individuals who have functional gynecological and urinary disorders. Emphasis is put on external manual treatment of malpositions of the coccyx and activation of the pelvic floor musculature. In addition to manual therapy, specific exercises for the lumbar and pelvic regions are given.
