Log In
Abdomen 1 (VM1)
In VM1 you will study the models and theories of functional biomechanics as viewed from Barral's innovative approach.
Abdomen 2 (VM2)
In Visceral Manipulation: Abdomen 2 you will expand on the functional anatomy, hand placements and techniques you learned in Visceral Manipulation: Abdomen 1 to give you a deeper understanding of the abdominal cavity and its relationship to the cranial and thoracic cavities.
The Pelvis (VM3)
Visceral Manipulation: The Pelvis (VM3) studies the relationship between functional and structural mechanics of the pelvis.
The Thorax (VM4)
After taking Visceral Manipulation: Abdomen 1 and 2, you've become acquainted with the feel of the different abdominal organs and local restrictions. In the Thorax workshop, you'll take an expanded look at the functional biomechanics of the thoracic cavity. You'll also explore the relationship between the hard frame and soft frame with its countless articulations for respiration, circulatory requirements and upper body movement patterns.
Advanced Visceral - Neck and Thorax
Prerequisite: VM4
Advanced Visceral Components of the Neck and Thorax (VMAT)
The workshop delves deeper into the anatomy, breathing mechanism, function and physiology of the thorax. Precise advanced techniques will be taught.
Course Highlights
- Build on the knowledge of the thorax region as learned in VM4.
- Review the myofascial structures of the thorax.
- Explore the functionality of the hyoid suspensory apparatus, thyroid, tonsils and pharynx.
- Learn more precise techniques for the esophagus, pleura, heart and pericardium.
- Classify retropharangeal space.
- Discover treatment techniques to enhance the breathing mechanism.
