Introduction to Neurofascial Manipulation

This introductory lecture class will introduce you to the research and concepts behind neurofascial manipulation– working directly with the nerves and superficial fascia to restore mobility and decrease pain. Nerves control tissue tone, while tethered and overstretched nerves create pain and inflammation. Direct engagement of the neurofascia and skilled use of neural mobilization techniques can dramatically increase your level of results and set you apart. 

In this introductory lecture class, we will discuss concepts of neurogenic inflammation, ectopic firing, central sensitization, and fibromyalgia. The work is based in part on concepts from JP Barral, Alain Crobier, and Don Hazen, DC. You will learn how tethered cutaneous nerves contribute to shoulder, neck, and arm pain. We will also learn to slow down, refine our touch of the superficial layers and self-palpate several nerves in the arm and wrist. This class will provide you with a basic theoretical understanding of neurofascial work, and prepare you for Steve's neurofascial technique classes.

Note: This class is a prerequisite required for taking Steve Evanko’s Neurofascial Technique Classes. The November 5th Back and Ribcage Class is currently sold out. Steve will be offering another Neurofascial Technique class in January 2023.
