This 2-day course explores the concept of ‘Membrain Health’, describing how the behaviour and long-term health of the brain is reliant on the condition of its local physical environment.
This course is an excellent way to introduce working with the involuntary mechanism into your clinical practice. You will learn Sutherland’s gentle, precise and effective approach to treatment of joints in the whole body using the therapeutic principle of
This truly holistic course returns to the legacies of Still, Sutherland and Littlejohn to place us on the ‘rock of reason’ and instil confidence in treating a wide range of conditions; ultimately broadening and inspiring our approach to clinical practice.
Gives you a sound basis on which to build your paediatric knowledge and prepares you to practice safely and examine your young patients with confidence and with a deeper appreciation of this extraordinary journey from embryo to childhood.
Bursaries worth £250 available to new graduates.
This 40-hour course is an overview of the whole cranial concept, covering all the key areas and includes treatment approaches that you can use immediately in practice. Each topic is then developed in more detail in other courses on the Pathway
Perfect for anyone curious about the anatomy and function and would like to discover more about the five principles of osteopathy as developed by William G Sutherland.
Utilising studies and experiential knowledge, this course is an in-depth exploration of the clinical application of the fluid dynamics of Blechschmidt’s embryology and the mechanical forces of morphogenesis.
A one day course aimed at helping you to integrate cranial work into your existing osteopathic practice, and to give you the confidence to communicate effectively with your patients.
Hormesis is the beneficial effect of physical or chemical stress to a biological system. At the right level, such stress improves biological function and enhances physical health. Hormesis is also perhaps the most important and little understood way of improving health and wellbeing.
This session will examine how loading and cardiorespiratory exercise, heat and cold, and exposure to plant phytochemicals can all play a role in preventing and treating diseases.
Examples will be explored with respect to exercise, fasting, foods and supplements, sauna, and cold-water exposure that can be employed as effective preventive and therapeutic approaches to health and wellbeing.
Scoliosis is usually defined as a 3-dimensional curvature of the spine, which is mostly based on the classical assessment procedure via x-ray imaging. However, recent investigations indicate that the spine is less a driver than a follower in relation to preceding shifts in the tensional connections of the surrounding myofascial tissues.
Coupled with the novel insights about the PIEZO2 receptors and their frequent involvement in idiopathic scoliosis (see Nobel award 2021), this new perspective opens the door to explore a multitude of fascia-oriented treatment techniques, which will be discussed in this webinar, in addition to the basic anatomy and science behind it. Treatment suggestions include manual therapy and also movement-oriented approaches, such as in yoga, Pilates, etc.
