Lymphatic Therapy Class   Lymphatic Drainage Certification    Lymphatic drainage manual therapy is a gentle technique that works through the body's lymphatic system to activate the body fluid circulation and stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems. The benefits include reductions in edemas, detoxification of the body, regeneration of tissue as well as many other benefits. Using exacting anatomical science and distinctive manual processes, Lymphatic drainage massage enables practitioners to detect the specific rhythm, direction, depth and quality of the lymph flow anywhere in the body. The practitioner will use their hands to perform work on the vessels to assess overall circulation and determine the best alternate pathways for draining body-fluid stagnations. Therapists work with flat hands, using all the fingers to simulate gentle, specific wave-like movements. These subtle manual maneuvers activate lymph and interstitial fluid circulation as well as stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems. It is shown that when these actions are accomplished, the results can be: Reduction in edemas (swelling) and lymphedemas of various origins Detoxification of the body Regeneration of tissue, including burns, wounds and wrinkles Anti-aging effects Relief of numerous chronic and subacute inflammations, including sinusitis, bronchitis and otitis Relief of chronic pain    Create another stream of income by networking with Medi spas, Oncology clinics and Physical rehab clinics who are now hiring therapist for Lymphatic Drainage.       Monday April 9, 2018 Class Time - 10am to 4pm    Lymphatic Drainage Manual Therapy The student will be able to: - Explain the function and location of the lymphatic system. - Explain the benefits of lymphatic drainage. - Explain contraindications of lymphatic drainage. - Perform basic lymphatic drainage massage routine.      Fee: $250.00

Chakra Balancing Level 1

Saturday April 14, 2018

2:00 pm to 6:00 pm

Chakras   The word "chakra" means disk, vortex, or wheel. The chakras are energy stations that can hold negative or positive energy. Seven major chakras have been distinguished, however a chakra may appear anywhere fresh energy is required or in an area of the body that has been injured. Each chakra influences the organs, muscles, ligaments, veins, and all other body parts within the energy field. Chronic stress can throw our chakras out of balance or cause them to hold on to negative or stagnant energies. Clearing and balancing impaired energies can help heal physical symptoms and increase the flow of energy for optimum health and well-being.  Chakra balancing is a deep healing technique that not only removes stagnant energy but also provides fresh energy to restore balance and well-being.
