The Meridian Connection
Our focus will be applying acupuncture concepts to massage therapy assessment and treatment. The emphasis is not on acupressure points but on the meridian pathway itself. We will learn to trace fourteen meridians and will study the associated muscles, organs, emotions, and pathologies. If you keep hearing about meridians and wish you understood them better, this is a rare opportunity to increase your confidence and therapeutic effectiveness by spending an entire day immersed in them.
WHY TAKE THIS ONE-DAY CLASS?
By participating in this class, you will:
• Learn to locate and trace fourteen meridians
• Learn a technique called “meridian walking” for acute pain
• Study muscles, organs, emotions and pathologies relating to each meridian
• Learn how to use meridians in clinical assessment
• Learn how to treat meridian imbalance with massage techniques
• Learn how acupuncture concepts apply to clinical bodywork practice
• Practice meridian exercises and self-treatment
We are a fully furnished massage school facility and provide Oakworks massage tables, linens, class tables, and computer/projector for overhead presentations.
