NEUROMUSCULAR REPATTERNING FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH

18 FL CEUs - 18 NCBTMB CE Hrs.

If you are concerned about the strain that providing massage puts on your own body, you might be interested in a class where you can learn a set of principles that will refine your touch, help you gain increased sensitivity and teach you how to deliver a real deep experience of relaxation without stressing your body.

This class provides you with a powerful set of tools to use with clients in pain due to injury, overuse or postural imbalances. Shoulder, neck, hip and back pain are studied in relationship to movement patterns and posture.

The class offers:
• a review of anatomy/physiology of movement and touch, and how to stimulate proprioceptors to enhance the effects of massage.

• a review of the function of touch and movement in the structuring of neuromuscular patterns, as well as how to help the client overcome restrictive patterns.

• to help you achieve a better understanding of the psycho-structural process that shapes body and mind.

• a review of different movement modalities and their principles to achieve neuromuscular reeducation.

You will develop new skills in the assessment of restrictive patterns, gait and posture, explore the perception of tension and relaxation in your own and the client’s body. The class will also help you improve your body mechanics to prevent repetitive stress injuries.

NOTE ABOUT THIS CLASS:
Many people take this class to become qualified to perform neuromuscular re-education and bill insurance companies for CODE 97112. This is the description of this code:
"Therapeutic procedure, one or more areas, each 15 minutes; neuromuscular re-education of movement; balance; coordination; kinesthetic sense; posture; and proprioception."
According to the AMA, "from a CPT coding perspective, code 97112 is intended to identify therapeutic exercise designed to re-train a body part to perform some task that the body part was previously able to do. This will usually be in the form of some commonly performed task for that body part."
So, the answer is yes, this class is about retraining the body to recover function and treatments that use the principles taught in this class can use code 97112 to bill when they perform the above.
Please make sure that you understand the difference with Neuromuscular Therapy before you register. According to Ed Denning, MEd, LMT in Massage Today, "This code is definitely not referring to neuromuscular therapy in any way."
