In July 2006, the former 3-day, “Advanced Mouthwork” class officially expanded to its new, Four-day format. The name has changed, as well, to “Essential Mouthwork.”
This new format gives us more time to explore whole body and throat fascial releases that have a profound impact on throat and mouth function. It also allows us to explore the cranial holds with a more specific awareness of integration with the mouth.
We will have a greater immersion into the external work that changes the internal function of the mouth and more comprehensive consideration of sensory issues relating to this area.
If you are holding the neck or the cranium in your sessions, you will find this additional information an invaluable asset to your practice!
Neurovascular Integration: Essential Mouthwork
From the earliest days of embryology, our mouth tissue guides the formation of the rest of the body.
At birth, we experience our world and integrate critical developmental skills through our mouth.
Our sensory, motor and visceral systems all organize themselves from this experience.
Whether we need to move beyond early difficulties or later traumas, Essential Mouthwork allows us to reclaim flow and ease through our bodies and our lives.
Join us in “Essential Mouthwork” class as we explore gentle release techniques for the whole body that lead to restoration of smooth function through the mouth and throat.
Celebrate the awakening of our senses throughout the body, as the mouth releases its tension and reclaims its joyful expression with ease!
Immerse Yourself in the stories of our living anatomy, as we engage the elegant dance of the nervous system.
Balance the fascial flow of tissues from foot to head to relieve tension through the throat and neck.
Explore the important fascial structures of the throat, which affect the brain, cervical spine and thorax.
Discover the power of working externally through the throat to facilitate better oral organization and function.
Relax with the comfortable hand positions, as we hold the cranium, hard palate and jaw in Profound Neutral.
Celebrate the ease of release through Profound Neutral, as we “hold a space” for the body to release and reorganize.
Restore flow and harmony through all body systems as the nervous system and mouth tissues realign.
Acquire valuable techniqes for pediatric as well as adult clients.
Prerequisites: Clinical Foundations or experience with other cranial work. Students must be ready to work inside the mouth, both giving and receiving!
