Jakarta, Indonesia - Level 1 & Level 2 Combo

Myofascial Decompression (MFD) Techniques: Increased efficiency of motion through fascial mobility and neuromuscular re-education
 
Date: Saturday & Sunday, May 25-26, 2024
Time: 8:00am-5:00pm
Location: Jl. Prapanca Raya No.95, RT.9/RW.8, Cipete Utara, Kec. Kby. Baru, Kota Jakarta Selatan, Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 12150, Indonesia
 
Step into the world of advanced Myofascial Decompression (MFD) Techniques with this exclusive Level 1 & 2 combo course. In Level 1, delve into the properties of skin/fascia, trigger points, and effective use of negative pressure tools. Building on this foundation in Level 2, master precision MFD pump operation, lymphatic flow assistance, and advanced applications for specific sports populations. From cyclists to contact sports athletes, refine your skills in lab settings and unlock the potential for MFDc Certification. Elevate your practice, combining extensibility, inhibition, and kinesthetic awareness with neuromuscular re-education principles.
 
Who can take the course: PT, ATC, LMT, PTA, OT, MD, DO, LAc, and other health care professionals.
 
Pre-Requisites: Proof of licensure or certification. We recommend completing a basic course in manual therapy and understanding end feel and tissue texture changes.
 
Level One Course Objectives:
Understand the properties of skin/fascia and its interface with the musculoskeletal and neurologic systems.
Understand histological subunits of myofascial layers, trigger points, common referred pain patterns, fascial lines, and Janda’s concepts.
Understand precautions and contraindications when using negative pressure tools; documentation and billing
Demonstrate appropriate and effective handling when using negative pressure with movement in lab settings with competency
 
Level Two Course Objectives:
Understand how to operate the precision MFD pump at specific mmHg to target specific tissue layers and visualize the imaging research that matches these recommendations.
Understand how to utilize MFD to assist with lymphatic flow and dysfunction.
Understand the basic principles of muscle inhibition, and how to utilize MFD for inhibitory influence to promote improvements in coordination and movement efficiency.
Understand the basic principles of kinesthetic awareness and proprioception, and how MFD is used with kinesthetic awareness cueing to improve movement efficiency.
Be able to combine MFD techniques (extensibility, inhibition, and kinesthetic awareness) with neuromuscular re-education principles to build a program for specific sports populations.
Demonstrate in lab manual applications of MFD to treat specific sport populations, including cyclists, runners, swimmers, golfers, contact sport athletes & throwing athletes.
Administer specific intermediate neuromuscular re-education principles after MFD to restore optimal function, as demonstrated in the lab.
 
Upon completion of the Level 2 course, there is an opportunity to take a certification exam. Exam components include 40 questions, multiple choice design with practical as a lab portion.
