ATP1: Abdominal Therapy For Professionals: Part 1

Join Erica Grossman for a four-day exploration of the anatomy and physiology of the abdomen and pelvis, and explore how discomfort and dysfunction in the digestive and reproductive systems can be addressed through gentle abdominal massage. 

Students will learn to perform self massage on their own abdomen, as well as learn how to integrate these techniques into a professional treatment.

During this 28 ce hour course, attendees will:

-Review anatomy and physiology of the digestive system, female reproductive anatomy, and male reproductive anatomy

-Gain deeper understanding of the role of the diaphragm within the abdominal cavity and how it can relate to various pain patterns and system functions

-Explore the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems that support and engage with the internal organs of the abdominal and pelvic cavity
