Credits: 0.5
Advanced soft tissue skills will be explored through a regional approach to the commonly treated areas in the average chiropractic practice; neck, shoulder girdle, hip girdle, low back, forearms/wrists, and lower leg will be the focus. It will build on the foundational techniques of pin and stretch, muscle energy techniques, friction, and instrument assisted manipulation to include negative pressure cupping. It will also incorporate other methodologies including but not limited to strain/counterstrain as inspired by Jones and passive positional release as inspired by Chaitow.
