SUMMARY:Understanding & Transforming Chronic Pain by Arnold Askew
DESCRIPTION:Retraining Neural-Circuits & Neuromuscular Habits14 CE Hours + Approved by NCBTMB \n\n\n\nUnderstanding & Transforming Chronic Pain: \n\n\n\nAn In-depth Introduction to the Theory and Techniques of Somatic Therapy \n\n\n\nThis class will review the latest neuroscience the brain plays in the perception and persistence of pain. This knowledge will quickly help us see the difference between “neuroplastic” and structurally caused pain. Understanding this is essential for consistent and successful treatment. First\, we’ll review techniques to address the neuro-circuitry linked to chronic pain. Then we’ll use somatic education to change inefficient patterns of dysfunction. Therapeutically we’ll use “awareness-based touch and movement” to awaken proprioceptive centers and stimulate healthier neurological activity. A variety of injuries\, pathologies and conditions will be discussed to make the information relevant for actual practice. \n\n\n\nThough all of this may sound overwhelming\, it comes together with simple techniques that are easy to apply and are gentle on the therapist. The work is relationship-based\, so we will look at how to bring our clients into a healthier relationship with their own healing. And this process starts with us. We will use basic developmental movements to start our own process of self-exploration.    With this “self-knowledge” our goal will be to help our clients become more autonomous and involved in whatever conditions may be a part of their lives. \n\n\n\nPlease wear clothing that allows unrestricted movement\, and bring a mat or blanket for movement explorations on the floor. \n\n\n\n$350 Somatic Therapy and CE Courses by Arnold Askew \n\n\n\nClass objectives:  \n\n\n\n1) Develop an understanding of the causes and currentapproach for the treatment of chronic pain. Specifically\, review the recentresearch into pain caused by neuroplastic changes and/or somatic deficiencies. \n\n\n\n2) Develop strategies to effectively treat such conditions. Focus to be ondeveloping awareness-based touch and movement to awaken proprioceptivecenters and stimulate new neurological activity.  \n\n\n\n3) Learn to integrate newtheories and techniques into current massage or other practices. \n\n\n\nClass Participants comments and feedback \n\n\n\n“I really enjoyed Arnold’s method of teaching\, great sense of humor\, very intuitive\, would takehis class anytime” D. Anson“The course was so helpful to push me into a deeper understanding of how I\, as a practitioner\,can facilitate healing efficiency\, awareness\, and better movement in my clients. Being able toexperience and feel the profound changes with subtle work will add much more dimension to mywork as a Rolfer.” P. Reaves“Really excited about this information\, wish general public could be educated about this.” V.Cook“Thank you for your wonderful presentation. I appreciated your willingness to “tell it like it is”\,even if it may not fit so clearly into the traditional confines of our field. I feel like you have a wellthought out\, clearly articulated and focused workshop. And I have both something I can takewith me and apply now and a path for continuing my inquiry.” T. Wilson“Before I met Arnold I was in constant pain. He showed me how to understand the patterns I hadgotten into. I am very grateful to him\, first because the pain never came back\, and secondbecause he taught me how to care for myself.” N Feige\, Teacher\, Mother \n\n\n\nParticipant Reviews of 2024 AMTA National Convention Presentation·       Loved the class.

SUMMARY:Muscle Management® for Knee Problems and Injuries
DESCRIPTION:Tactile Vision \n\n\n\nThe Knee \n\n\n\nIn this class\, anatomy moves into your hands. \n\n\n\nBy building a knee out of clay from the bones outward\, layer by layer\, you develop tactile vision\, the ability to recognize balance\, restriction\, and distortion through touch\, not just knowledge. \n\n\n\nThis hands-on process bridges anatomy and clinical work\, supporting clearer assessment and more precise technique. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMuscle Management® for Knee Problems and Injuries\n\n\n\nJuly 18-19 \n\n\n\nSat-Sun 9-5 each day \n\n\n\nArizona School of Medical Massage and Wellness\, LLC \n\n\n\n8279 W Lake Pleasant Pkwy\, Suite 106\, Peoria\, AZ 85382 \n\n\n\nClass size limited to 12 \n\n\n\n13 NCBTMB CE’s \n\n\n\nThe Berry Method® \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Steve Kubby\, Editor-in-Chief at “Alpine World” \n\n\n\n The Berry Method® Whole-Body Approach \n\n\n\n Introduction to Corrective Massage \n\n\n\n Taum who? \n\n\n\n The Fundamentals of Corrective Massage \n\n\n\nRe-balancing the knee…One muscle at a time. \n\n\n\nOne of many unique components of The Berry Method® is its explicit recognition that muscle tissues have an optimum natural functional position and can become misaligned due to trauma\, adaptation\, or other factors. \n\n\n\nSometimes\, it’s as simple as putting the tissue back where it belongs.The Knee class includes both a regional and a specific\, in-depth precision focus on Knee anatomy and the corrective techniques to return balance and pain-free movement. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this class\, you’ll build a knee out of clay from the bones outward\, layer by layer. This hands-on process will give you a tactile understanding of how the bones\, ligaments\, tendons\, and muscles work together for healthy knee function. \n\n\n\nAs we sculpt and assemble each part\, you’ll also learn the idiosyncrasies of each tissue and how to recognize when something is out of balance. Along the way\, rebalancing techniques to stretch\, correct\, and manipulate each structure will be presented\, practiced\, and reviewed. \n\n\n\nEach model will include: \n\n\n\nBones (landmarks for palpation): \n\n\n\nFemur\, Fibula\, Tibia\, and Patella \n\n\n\nLigaments: \n\n\n\nACL & PCL Cruciate Ligaments \n\n\n\nMCL and LCL Collateral Ligaments \n\n\n\nMuscles & Tendons: \n\n\n\nPopliteus \n\n\n\nPlantaris \n\n\n\nGastrocnemius \n\n\n\nBiceps Femoris \n\n\n\nSemimembranosus and Semitendinosus \n\n\n\nGracilis \n\n\n\nTensor Fasciae Latae \n\n\n\nArticularis Genus \n\n\n\nVastus Medialis \n\n\n\nVastus Intermedius \n\n\n\nVastus Lateralis \n\n\n\nRectus Femoris \n\n\n\nPatellar Tendon \n\n\n\nSartorius \n\n\n\nThe bones serve as tactile landmarks\, helping you locate and identify the surrounding muscles with your hands and fingers. By the end\, you’ll have both a clay model and a deeper tactile functional map of the knee — knowledge you can apply directly to assessment and treatment. \n\n\n\n\nFacebook\n\n\n\nLinkedin\n\n\n\nPinterest\n\n\n\n\n Class Medical Disclaimer \n\n\n\n Medical disclaimer and class policies. \n\n\n\nRegistering for this class indicates that you have read\, understood\, and agree to the above information referencing:\n\n\n\n‘The Medical Disclaimer information and Taum’s Class Policies.’\n\n\n\nAfter registering\, the class preparation webpage opens up to begin your ‘Dynamic Learning’ process. \n\n\n\nBefore June 10th \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter June 10th \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n© 2026 Muscle Management®.

SUMMARY:PNMT-Cervical Spine (Two Day) in Phoenix\, Arizona - 16 NCBTMB CEs
DESCRIPTION:The reality is\, neck pain is complex. Releasing the suboccipitals can be wonderful in certain circumstances\, disastrous in others. There is no routine that works for all the different iterations of possible neck issues. In PNMT\, we don’t teach routines\, we focus in reasoning and problem solving. That takes time and expert guidance from the instructor. There is NO substitute for hands-on experience and the guidance of a mentor\, especially in an area so small and complex as the neck. \n\n\n\nBook Here: https://www.pnmt.org/event-details/cervical-spine-two-day-in-phoenix-arizona-16-ncbtmb-ces-2

Homework for patients as a preventive measure is also discussed. \n\n\n\nDay 2: Medical Massage Protocol for Pectorials Major and Minor Muscle Syndrome Hands-On Training Course \n\n\n\n          We start this class with the evaluation and treatment of patients with tension and spasms of pectoral muscles. From mimicking Cardiac Pain in the form of Fase Cardialgia Syndrome to various abnormalities in the function of the upper extremities\, tension in the pectoral muscles is indeed very frequently mistreated with somatic syndrome. \n\n\n\n          We will discuss all anatomical and pathological aspects\, as well as detailed evaluation of the soft tissues layer by layer and hands-on application of the Medical Massage protocol. \n\n\n\nDay 3: Medical Massage Protocol for TMJ Dysfunction/Benign Positioning Vertigo Hands-On Training Course \n\n\n\n          The first part of the class is a detailed discussion of the anatomy and physiology of the Temporomandibular Joint\, as well as all causes of its dysfunction. We will cover a step-by-step evaluation of the soft tissues in the suboccipital\, temporal\, and TMJ areas. This part of the class finishes with a step-by-step application of the Medical Massage protocol to eliminate tension in the soft tissues that control TMJ function and to decompress the joint itself\, restoring the patient’s normal bite. \n\n\n\n          The second part of the class explains the complex chain of events that triggers Positioning Vertigo and presents highly effective Semont’s Protocol to eliminate it by resetting otoliths in the inner ear. \n\n\n\nAbout presenter: Dr. Ross Turchaninov  \n\n\n\nProfessional Reviews of SOMI’s publications by medical and massage communities: Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » Book Reviews  \n\n\n\nWhat is Medical Massage? Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » What IS medical massage?  \n\n\n\nAbout SOMI’s Medical Massage Certification Program: Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » Medical Massage Certification Program  \n\n\n\nOur former students (CMMPs) who successfully graduated SOMI’s Program talk about their educational experiences and clinical successes: SOMI TESTIMONIALS – YouTube \n\n\n\nFor therapists new to SOMI\, please visit the Journal of Massage Science to get and in-depth understanding the valuable professional information we offer during our training.  \n\n\n\nTo receive information from SOMI\, please register under FREE REGISTRATION: Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » FREE REGISTRATION \n\n\n\nIf you would like to speak to someone in the office\, please call (602) 561-9532\, or email aesculapr@hotmail.com  \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you soon and advancing your practice together!

Rehabilitation of the full-blown FS is a very complex and lengthy process\, and very frequently\, the patients end up with very controversial surgeries. That is why the correct management of RCS is a vital therapy that prevents debilitating complications. \n\n\n\n          During the class\, we discuss the complex anatomy and physiology of the shoulder joint\, step-by-step evaluation of each component of the rotator cuff mechanism\, and examination of humeral-scapular rhythm. \n\n\n\n          Finally\, in the hands-on part of the class\, we will discuss the Medical Massage Protocol for the treatment of Rotator Cuff Syndrome. \n\n\n\nDay 2: Medical Massage Protocol for Tensor Fasciae Lata Syndrome Hands-On Training Course \n\n\n\n          This class covers the most frequent cause of pain and dysfunction in the lateral hip and knee joints as well as the lateral aspect of the thigh. The class begins with the anatomy and physiology of the Tensor Fascia Lata Muscle and the Iliotibial Band (IT Band). \n\n\n\n          Afterward\, we discuss possible causes of tension in the Tensor Fascia Lata Muscle and evaluate all soft tissue aspects on a layer-by-layer basis. \n\n\n\n          The rest of the day is dedicated to hands-on training in Medical Massage Protocol to restore the function of the Tensor Fascia Lata muscle and the IT Band. \n\n\n\nDay 3: Medical Massage Protocol for Tennis/Golfer’s Elbow/Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Hands-On Training Course \n\n\n\n          The first part of the class covers widespread abnormalities in the function of the elbow\, Lateral Epicondylitis a.k.a Tennis Elbow\, and Medial Epicondylitis a.k.a Golfer’s Elbow. The nature of the abnormalities\, as well as the evaluation of the soft tissues of the elbow and the corresponding Medical Massage protocols\, are discussed in detail. Homework for patients\, as well as future preventive measures\, are presented. \n\n\n\n          The second part of the class is dedicated to the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. We discuss the differences between local and reflex variants of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\, soft-tissue evaluation\, and the Medical Massage protocol for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Homework for patients and future preventive measures are also discussed. \n\n\n\nAbout presenter: Dr. Ross Turchaninov  \n\n\n\nProfessional Reviews of SOMI’s publications by medical and massage communities: Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » Book Reviews  \n\n\n\nWhat is Medical Massage? Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » What IS medical massage?  \n\n\n\nAbout SOMI’s Medical Massage Certification Program: Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » Medical Massage Certification Program  \n\n\n\nOur former students (CMMPs) who successfully graduated SOMI’s Program talk about their educational experiences and clinical successes: SOMI TESTIMONIALS – YouTube \n\n\n\nFor therapists new to SOMI\, please visit the Journal of Massage Science to get and in-depth understanding the valuable professional information we offer during our training.  \n\n\n\nTo receive information from SOMI\, please register under FREE REGISTRATION: Medical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » FREE REGISTRATION \n\n\n\nIf you would like to speak to someone in the office\, please call (602) 561-9532\, or email aesculapr@hotmail.com  \n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you soon and advancing your practice together! \n\n\n\nMedical Massage Courses & Certification | Science of Massage Institute » Peoria\, AZ November 14-16\, 2026
