This course has been developed to continue to support your development of the perceptual journey with biodynamic osteopathic principles. Whether at the start of your perceptual journey or further along this course brings consolidation and a deepening of your unique relationship with the osteopathic legacy left to us by our elders.
Through the 4 days through the lens of Wholeness we will explore the topics of:
Polyvagal theory, the vagus nerve and brainstem, and its role in inflammation and allostasis.
Trauma and its impact on soma and the journey to Wholeness, including the modified or adapted form,autoimmune conditions and PTSD.
Neuroimmune axis, lamina terminalis, The Bird.
These topics will be explored with theory, practical applications, with hands-on treatments and case studies.
At the end of the course you will leave with a deepened understanding of mind, body, spirit connections, how the subtleties of these connections of the bodies systems impact how our patients present and treat and the beauty of the bodies inherent ability to remember The River of Life and the Wisdom that flows and guides each one of us.
โWe look at the body in health as meaning perfection and harmony, not in one part, but in the whole.โ A.T. Still
