SHOULDER WORKSHOP

“If you understand the force of intelligence in the body, its mechanical operation and structure, you can work on any part of the body you can reach with your hands”. Lauren Berry

The Berry Method® Shoulder Workshop is designed for practitioners with a general knowledge of the anatomy of the shoulder and basic palpation skills who are interested in learning effective techniques for addressing shoulder joint dysfunction.

The purpose of this course is to increase the skill and effectiveness of a therapist working with clients who have shoulder joint pain or dysfunction.

The goals of this course include:

• To gain an understanding of the shoulder anatomy by building a clay model.
• To visually and manually assess the joint.
• To recognize misalignment of the muscles, tendons and ligaments of the shoulder joint.
• To reduce pain and improve shoulder function through the application of effective corrective therapy.

The Berry Method® Shoulder Workshop can assist therapists to not only make painful shoulder injuries feel better, but more importantly, provide corrective realignment of muscles, tendons and ligaments thus restoring proper mechanical function. As massage therapists are called upon more and more to assist in the therapeutic healing process, gaining these skills can assist therapists to be proficient in effective injury treatment and increased job opportunities.
