Muscle Balancing and Joint Stabilization Classes
I am very excited to present my Muscle Balancing and Joint Stabilization CE class in Hot Springs and Fayetteville (see dates below). This class uses a variety of techniques to quickly find and strengthen weak muscles and tendons around the joints – for you, the therapist – and for your clients.
Previous Muscle Balancing Class
This 18-CEU class is approved by the NCBTMB and The Arkansas Dept of Health. I’ll describe how these techniques work and what they can do for you and your clients below.
Tight fascia (or connective tissue) can often cause joint fixations that disrupt blood flow, lymphatic flow, and/or nerve conduction that’s necessary for muscle-tendon strength around the joints. When portions of the muscles and their tendons are weak, they act as if they are dormant to protect against injury and conserve resources.
The Muscle Balancing techniques quickly wake up these ‘sleeping’ muscles and make them instantly strong. We test the muscles before and after the technique to confirm that it worked. I have seen this with my own eyes hundreds of times. You will see it for yourself right away in this class.
Even someone who appears strong – like weight lifters, body builders, other athletes – will often test weak around certain joints. Sometimes, muscles become chronically tight because they’re compensating for weakness in other muscle-tendon units. Exercise doesn’t always strengthen muscle-tendon tightness due to fascial restrictions around the joints. However, the Muscle Balancing techniques do, and they’re quick and easy to do.
We bodyworkers often do a great job of loosening up tight muscles and releasing fascial restrictions, when we have the right tools (like Direct-Indirect Technique). However, if the joint has some weakness around it, those muscles and fascia have to compensate and they tend to tighten up again very quickly. This is sometimes the pattern of a person who feels relief from a session for just a short period of time before they start hurting again.
These Muscle Balancing and Joint Stabilization techniques can help you to increase vitality, improve physical and athletic performance, prevent injury, assist in the healing of existing injuries, resolve pain, slow the development of arthritis pain, and increase overall physical comfort.
This class can help you the therapist maintain strength and well-being while you do your work and other activities. And it can help your clients, too. It’s something I think everyone can benefit from learning and using regularly. I use the techniques myself every day.
You can see how these techniques will benefit you and everyone you know by registering for the class now. Here’s to your health – and that of your clients!
Stay well,
