Course Overview
This course explores evaluation and treatment techniques for the vascular system of the upper body.
Course Highlights
- Review the anatomy and physiology of the vascular system, particularly how arteries dilate or diminish in diameter depending on the function of the body.
- Understand how compression along vascular structures creates restriction patterns and pain.
- Learn to locate and release restrictions along the vascular structures.
- Explore manipulation of the soft tissues of the heart, as well as the aorta, subclavian artery and brachial artery.
- Enhance your understanding of how increased blood circulation to an organ improves its function, and learn how to improve circulation to the organs, directly and/or indirectly.
- Learn treatment of the vaso-pressive system and the brain.
- Discover the research done with Doppler ultrasound to determine the best mobilizations of the arteries to improve local and general blood circulation.
- Learn practical integration of vascular treatment into the therapeutic session.
