Exploration of Movement Patterns in Melbourne
Exploration of Movement Patterns with Instructor Janine McCarthy
In this class we explore how to use specific movement techniques for both assessment and treatment of acute and chronic tension patterns. You'll learn how to assess where movement is or is not available to the client, identify key areas of restriction and use gentle movement techniques to increase range of motion and flexibility in muscles and joints. Identify your client's preferred patterns of tension and postural habits and help them access more functional movements with less pain.
Exploration of Movement Patterns can be taken as your first Ortho-Bionomy class and it's also the ideal follow-up to Fundamentals/Phase 4 as it expands your toolkit with movement techniques to use when standard Phase 4 positions are uncomfortable or inaccessible for your clients.

Consultations with Karen
As part of your tutorials, in the Practitioner Training program, a Consultation is one-to-one time that you arrange to spend with a Registered Instructor or Associate Instructor to discuss your own questions and concerns about any aspect of Ortho-Bionomy. Not all of the private discussions need to be with your advisor. This time spent discussing your training, or expanding your understanding of ways you work in your clinic, can really support and compliment what you learn in classes. See More |
