SUMMARY:Experience Zen as a Lifestyle - Jill White-Huffman
DESCRIPTION:Self-Care For Massage and Bodywork Therapists \nCourse Description\nAS MASSAGE AND BODYWORK THERAPISTS\, much of our energy is dedicated to the physical well-being of others.

It’s easy to get sidetracked\, leading to increased stress or burnout.\nA consistent\, healthy routine is essential for preventing internal disruptions caused by triggers\, vulnerabilities\, and barriers. These factors can affect our mind-body awareness and ability to experience the present moment fully. \nTo support healthcare professional\, caregivers\, and others looking for effective self-care strategies\, Hill created Experience Zen as a Lifestyle\, a Path Toward Mindful Self-Care\, to help individuals feel calmer\, more grounded\, and balanced while caring for others. \nJill combines her Mindful Self-Care curriculum with Zen teaching to present “Experience Zen.” She offers practical\, easy-to-understand techniques for integrating regular meditative breathing exercises and therapeutic stretching workouts into daily routines\, which can help manage stress and prevent burnout. \nMindful Self-Care is an essential practice that requires training our minds daily through healthy home self-care practices\, similar t how we develop plans to condition our bodies. Remembering that you must take care of yourself before you can care for others is vital. \nCost includes a handout\n@Copyright 2025 Thai Hand and Foot Reflexology by Jill White-Huffman.

SUMMARY:Carrie Taylor's Fascial Fundamentals & Full Body Myofascial Treatment
DESCRIPTION:CLASS CANCELLED\nNov 22: Fascial Fundamentals\nThis workshop will give participants an introduction to the “Taylor Technique” style of myofascial assessment & treatment\, and how to incorporate this work into their current practice. Specifically\, strain/counterstrain\, using limbs as levers\, pin & drag\, skin rolling\, pick up & roll are all shown in several areas of the body\, focusing on palpation of superficial and deep layers of fascia\, and differentiating between the two.\nLearning about the elements of fascia and how to dialogue on this topic with prospective and current clients\, will help participants incorporate this work into their current massage practice\, while managing client expectations. Therapists will become proficient at using these techniques everywhere in the body\, and the focused hands-on practice in palpation\, is a skill that will be demonstrated throughout the seminar\, in addition to body mechanics.\nThis class is the platform for the other 9 topics in the level 1 series\, and gives the healthcare practitioner a firm foundation in applying palpative skill effectively. DVDs and downloads are available for all ten topics in this myofascial certification series\, as well as ten level 2 DVDs and ten level 3 DVDs now available at www.taylortechniquesinc.com. Level 1 textbook is available in downloadable and hard copy formats on amazon/kindle! \nNov 23: How to Give a Full Body Myofascial Session\nThis workshop combines many of the techniques learned in other Taylor myofascial workshops\, to form a more generalized full body “protocol”. A full sequence of treatment ideas is shown starting in prone\, with discussion on what to do if you find areas of concern/complaint that need more specific techniques applied (yet still be able to fit everything into one session).

SUMMARY:Carrie Taylor's Facial Fundamentals & HOPMNRS Approach to Assessment
DESCRIPTION:CLASS CANCELLED\nDay 1:Fascial Fundamentals\nThis workshop will give participants an introduction to the “Taylor Technique” style of myofascial assessment & treatment\, and how to incorporate this work into their current practice. Specifically\, strain/ counterstrain\, using limbs as levers\, pin & drag\, skin rolling\, pick up & roll are all shown in several areas of the body\, focusing on palpation of superficial and deep layers of fascia\, and differentiating between the two.\nLearning about the elements of fascia and how to dialogue on this topic with prospective and current clients\, will help participants incorporate this work into their current massage practice\, while managing client expectations. Therapists will become proficient at using these techniques everywhere in the body\, and the focused hands-on practice in palpation\, is a skill that will be demonstrated throughout the seminar\, in addition to body mechanics.\nThis class is the platform for the other 9 topics in the level 1 series\, and gives the healthcare practitioner a firm foundation in applying palpative skill effectively.

SUMMARY:Wolfgang Luckmann - Myofascial Release - Basic and Advanced - With Muscle Energy Testing (M.E.T.) and Cupping for the Beginner and Seasoned Therapist
DESCRIPTION:Course Description\nDid You know? “Most of us prefer harmony\, but we may need the repatterning that disharmony can stimulate.” – Margaret E. Newman – Nursing Theorist. \nDeveloped by Osteopaths and East European physical therapists\, this course embodies many of the major developments in cutting edge bodywork technique. The course allows you to move away from confrontational pain management techniques and neuromuscular trigger point techniques as well as the boredom of endless repetitive massages. We will focus on a comprehensive approach that is safe\, cost efficient and effective. Instead of focusing on spot work and isolated muscle groups we approach the client from a body- mind -spirit viewpoint. \n Areas of Expertise Taught:\nPostural Fascial Release\nGentle Joint mobilization techniques for the spine\nStructural changes\nTreating inflammatory muscle pain as in Fibromyalgia and arthritis and chronic myofascial conditions\nMedical Qigong for self-healing and healing the client. \n You Will Learn: \nHow to develop palpatory skills in detecting hard tonus and bad “energy cysts”\nHow to reduce and eliminate neuropathic muscle conditions\, when Trigger Point Therapy isn’t enough.\nHow to connect with the fascial lines of tension and communicate release to the whole body.\nHow to help return the individual’s adaptive capacity by increasing space and mobility throughout.\nHow to restore three-dimensional balance and return the body’s structure to a normal vertical orientation with gravity.\nHow to release the Dura Mater which protects the Spinal Cord.\nHow to use cupping to release hardened fascia.\nHow to reduce recovery time with TWO easy sessions and make the healing gentle and lasting. The principle of this release therapy is based on the  ARNDT- SCHULZ LAW of pharmacology\, which states that : “GENTLE STIMULATION ENHANCES THE PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS OF HEALING\,BUT STRONG STIMULATION STOPS AND REVERSES THE PROCESS OF THE BODY HEALING ITSELF.”  \nCOURSE INFO\nTimes: 8:30 am – 5:30 pm \nClass: Myofascial Release – Basic and Advanced – With Muscle Energy Testing (M.E.T) and Cupping \nCEU’s: 18 \nPrice:$310 \nEnrollment Closed\nClass Capacity: 20\n*Refunds are subject to a $10 processing fee. \nLocation: Gwinnett College – Roswell\, GA 1455 Old Alabama Road #160 Roswell\, GA 30076 \nContact: Please call us at (770) 381-7200 if you have any questions. \nRefunds: No refunds within 2 weeks of class.

SUMMARY:Craig Knowles - Lymphatic Drainage Part 1 - Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Lymphatic Massage is a type of gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph\, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart. The lymph system depends on intrinsic contractions of the smooth muscle cells in the walls of lymph vessels and the movement of skeletal muscles to propel lymph through the vessels to lymph nodes and then beyond the lymph nodes to the lymph ducts which return lymph to the cardiovascular system.

SUMMARY:Carrie Taylor's TMJ Dysfunction and TOS; Breast Fascia and Pectoral Girdle
DESCRIPTION:CLASS CANCELLED\nDay 1:Fascial Fundamentals\nThis workshop will take therapists through a detailed HOPMNRS assessment of the TMJ and Cervical Spine\, then progress into treatment ideas to release the TMJ/Thoracic Outlet and surrounding fascial tissues.\nFocus will be on release of the Trapezius & SCM\, which share the same fascial sheath\, and how to differentiate this superficial layer from the deeper muscles of the cervical spine. How to use the ear\, which connects directly to the TMJ\, to facilitate opening of the joint indirectly\, as well as direct treatment modalities to the temporomandibular joint itself will be shown\, via soft tissue and joint mobilization techniques. Release of the sternal\, clavipectoral\, deltopectoral fascias\, and the galea aponeurotica within the context of affecting the upper tracks of the deep front fascial line are valuable tools in resetting postural contributors to these disorders.\nMastoid\, jugular foramen\, and hyoid/throat modalities will also be shown\, as well as direct treatment procedures for the temporalis\, masseter\, medial and lateral pterygoids. A cylindrical approach to treating the many compartments of the cervical spine comfortably will be the primary focus\, as TMJ Disorder and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome are dramatically improved by postural balance in this region.\nPain-free intra-oral work using gloves\, will round out the many treatment approaches taught during the class\, as well as discussion of how to effectively work within the pain tolerance of the patient in this region.\nDealing with somato-emotional release will also be covered\, to prepare the therapist for this potential when treating this disorder. \nDay 2: Breast Fascia and Pectoral Girdle\nThis myofascial approach to treatment of the breast\, pectoral girdle\, and related tissues\, will provide participants with the confidence to perform hands-on techniques in a sensitive\, yet highly under-treated area. Learning to work on scar tissue\, musculature\, and fascia post-surgery\, or following any other trauma\, is an effective means to improve posture for the client. Improving the pliability and flexibility of scar tissue has also been shown to significantly decrease pain\, especially in the neck and shoulder girdle. Work will be demonstrated draped\, undraped\, or through clothing/sheet to provide options for patient & therapist comfort. \nClass Info\nTimes:\nDay 1: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm; Day 2:10:00 am – 6:00 pm\nCEU’s: 14\nPrice: $275.00 \nCLASS CANCELLED\nLocation: Gwinnett College – Roswell 1455 Old Alabama Road Suite 160 Roswell\, GA 30076\nClass capacity: 20\nContact: Please call us at (770) 381-7200 if you have any questions.\nRefunds: No refunds within 2 weeks of class.

SUMMARY:Carrie Taylor's Shoulder\, Elbow\, & Wrist Upper Extremity Approaches; Abdomen\, Ribcage\, Pelvis
DESCRIPTION:Day 1:Shoulder\, Elbow\, and Wrist – Upper Extremity Approaches\nThis workshop covers Myofascial assessment of the shoulder\, elbow and wrist as it applies to formulating effective treatment goals for a variety of disorders in the region\, such as Thoracic Outlet Syndrome\, Adhesive Capsulitis/”frozen shoulder”\, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\, DeQuervain’s Tenosynovitis\, “Blackberry thumb”\, Shoulder tendinosis\, etc. Participants will be shown how to release clavipectoral\, deltopectoral\, platysmal\, sternal\, cubital\, flexor & extensor superficial fascias\, before deeper structures are addressed.\nScapular mobilization supine and prone will be demonstrated\, with specific releases to all muscles & fascial tissues involved in upper extremity dysfunction. Clavicle mobilization and abdominal head of pec major release round out the shoulder approaches. In addition\, joint mobilizations and osseous techniques are shown for the clavicle\, scapula\, and upper extremity joints.\nTreatment of the elbow and wrist\, with focus on decompressing the radius & ulna from the humerus\, decompressing the Carpal Tunnel\, as well as mobilizing the carpals & phalanges\, can improve & prevent many of the above disorders. \nDay 2: Abdomen\, Ribcage\, and Pelvis\nThis course will remove any discomfort felt by therapists when\nworking on the Abdomen\, Ribcage & Pelvis\, by combining in depth assessment approaches with effective myofascial release techniques. Therapists will spend time doing direct techniques\, such as release of the abdominal/peritoneal fascia\, and iliac/inguinal fascia\, as well as indirect techniques\, such as release of groin/pubic fascias. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) will be employed\, along with passive stretching with traction (limb unwinding)\, to perform the indirect techniques. Once learned\, PNF and limb unwinding can be applied anywhere in the body. Patients will experience improved digestion from the abdominal work\, improved breathing from the ribcage/diaphragm work\, and better flexibility in the back and hips from the pelvic work. Decreased back\, shoulder\, and neck pain can be expected from all of the modalities used. \nClass Info\nTimes:\nDay 1: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm; Day 2:10:00 am – 6:00 pm\nCEU’s: 14\nPrice: $275.00 \nEnrollment Closed\nLocation: Gwinnett College – Roswell 1455 Old Alabama Road Suite 160 Roswell\, GA 30076\nClass capacity: 20\nContact: Please call us at (770) 381-7200 if you have any questions.\nRefunds: No refunds within 2 weeks of class.

SUMMARY:Craig Knowles: KMT - Upper Extremities
DESCRIPTION:The basis of Kinetic Musculorehab Technique is a modality that can be used by any profession that deals with biomechanical dysfunctions of the muscular system. When it comes to this type of trauma\, all muscles respond the exact same way. They contract. If the muscles are contracted\, the individual losses not only range of motion\, but also muscle strength. The basis of Kinetic Musculorehab Technique is to learn how to treat muscles using their plane of action. This course teaches how to merge passive range of motion with other muscle release techniques\, allowing relief from pain through the elongation of the muscle fibers. This technique helps in breaking apart adhesion and scar tissue that limit muscle flexibility and length. By including ROM with treatment\, you will be able to use less pressure and get the desired results.\nWe will be covering common muscular injuries such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\, Pronator Teres Syndrome\, Adhesive Capsulitis\, Golfer’s/Tennis Elbow\, among others. \nThe Kinetic Musculorehab Technique Upper Extremities continuing education course is a 12-hour course and will be held over two days. \nBecause this course is 12 hours hands on\, please bring sheets and lotion to class.\nNCBTMB Approved Provider # 451292-10 \nSupplies\nTwo twin set of sheets\nLotion and cream (No oil based products) \nClass Info\nTimes: Day 1: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm // Day 2: 9:00 am – 1:00 pm\nClass: KMT – Upper Extremities\nCEU’s: 12\nPrice: $225 \nCLASS FULL\nJoin the Wait List\nClass Capacity: 24\n*Refunds are subject to a $10 processing fee. \nLocation: Gwinnett College – Lilburn\, 4230 Lawrenceville Hwy\, Ste 11\, Lilburn\, GA 30047 \nContact: Please call us at (770) 381-7200 if you have any questions. \nRefunds: No refunds within 2 weeks of class.

SUMMARY:Craig Knowles - Lymphatic Drainage Part 2 - Routines
DESCRIPTION:Lymphatic Massage is a type of gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph\, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart. The lymph system depends on intrinsic contractions of the smooth muscle cells in the walls of lymph vessels and the movement of skeletal muscles to propel lymph through the vessels to lymph nodes and then beyond the lymph nodes to the lymph ducts which return lymph to the cardiovascular system. Lymphatic Massage is a very gentle manual treatment that is proven to reduce swelling by dramatically enhancing the function of the lymphatic system. Lymphatic Massage is also known to improve the quality of sleep\, decrease pain\, calm the nervous system\, and benefit the immune system. This technique will greatly benefit your clients who have: \n\nsoft-tissue injuries;\nrheumatoid arthritis;\nhigh stress levels/anxiety disorders;\nfibromyalgia or chronic fatigue;\nsurgical trauma/edema;\nmigraine headaches;\ncancer/oncology diagnosis;\nsinus congestion or allergies;\nmild\, medically-uncomplicated lymphedema;\nclients in hospice or palliative care;\n\nPart 2 will: \nIncorporate a review of Part 1 and then picks up where we left off. This portion focuses on the application of lymphatic drainage techniques to fully clear each part of the body. We will cover how to clear the full anterior and posterior body as well as the time requirements for each.\,/p> \nLymphatic Certifications\nAfter completing Part 1 and Part 2\, practice\, practice\, practice. When you feel you are ready\, retake PART 2. On Day one of the class there will be a chance to practice\, to iron out any last kinks. On Day 2 when the full body practical is performed\, you will be evaluated on the skills you perform. IF you show you are competent and safely applying all the techniques taught in Part 1 and Part 2\, you will receive a Lymphatic Massage Certification.
