The Neurovascular Institute Seminars

All courses offered by the Neurovascular Instititute are grounded in common-sense anatomy and physiology, incorporating the latest advances in neuroscience, and made clinically relevant in a simple, fluid form. From the early stories of osteopathy and cranial therapy, our work has developed its own grounding in science-based medicine. Where science meets our Profound Neutral touch, we offer a simple breath and invitation for the body to reorganize and flow with greater health. There is nothing “alternative” about reclaiming your authentic expression of life through body, mind and spirit!

The Courses We Offer:

Neuroscience of Manual Therapy

This one-day class explores the neuroscience of our internal stress systems and identifies the stress response pathways of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) and the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis. Students learn simple techniques for affecting these neurocognitive systems to reduce stress, improve personal health and empower their clinical interactions. Read the brochure here:  NMT 2010.11

Clinical Foundations

This two-day class that starts with an exploration of the neuroscience of our interactive touch and the physiology of Profound Neutral. We then move into a quick-paced series of anatomy lessons and experiential labs to give you a wide range of techniques to integrate into your clinic practice. Learn how to be profoundly effective and enhance your existing manual skills. Read the brochure here.

Essential (Advanced) Mouthwork

is a four-day course for practitioners with previous craniosacral experience. It brings the concept of Profound Neutral to work within the entire fascial system, emphasizing the cranium, throat and mouth, and gives the practitioner in-depth knowledge of these structures. Read the brochure here.

NeuroVascular Flow

explores the elegant and complex dynamics of our vascular and  autonomic nervous systems in a four-day, multi-hands format. There is in-depth coverage of the anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular and ventricular systems, as well as the neurovascular – visceral connections. Students learn to facilitate autonomic regulation, enhancing neurovascular and visceral function. The prerequisite for this class is Essential Mouthwork. Read the brochure here.

NeuroSensory Flow

focuses more intensely on the neuroendocrine and autonomic nervous systems, our neurological development and function, and the somatosensory regulation that the Profound Neutral approach can facilitate. We return to the anatomy and physiology of the throat and explore the larynx as an integrating bridge between heart, lungs and brain. The brain and its sensory components are explored on an in-depth level. New information on visceral autonomics, brainstem circuitry and the three branches of the autonomic nervous system has been added! This course is also a four-day, multi-hands format. Prerequisite is NeuroVascular Flow.

Developmental Journeys

This four day class explores our embryological process  and enhances our resonance of communication from Profound Neutral. Lab and lecture time does include focus on the pediatric population and many of the challenges families face in this world. However, there is important, integral lab time for ourselves as well. Immerse yourself in this extraordinary journey and restore your own foundational core. Experience the flow dynamics of the living anatomy processes of our embryology, fetal development, birth and postnatal issues, as they manifest in patients of all ages. Prerequisite is NeuroVascular Flow.

The Power of Presence (also known as Body Goddess)

This two-day class is based on the original four-day Healing the Sacred Feminine class. Now open to all interested students, with or without bodywork experience, we explore four key stories that illustrate the effect of archetypal energies on our bodies as well as our psyches. Storytelling is integrated with breath and movement work, to allow us to release dysfunctional stories and body patterns and reclaim our balanced, empowered self-presence.

Boost Your Brain Power * De-Stress Your Life!

is a three-hour course that introduces the layperson to the concepts of Profound Neutral and introduces simple and effective techniques that can be used to help friends and family. We explore the functions of the body’s stress regulation systems, and how we can learn to “wake up” our peaceful nervous system. Deepen the connection to your own flow of health and learn how to assist others in the same way. Ideal for caretakers and parents, as well as interested patients, this class is presented in easy to understand language. Explore how this work can help you support and help others more effectively. Experience the flow of health in your own life in a smooth and vital way.
