This course is designed specifically for those RMTs who are either already involved in their own business or are seeking valued information in how to start! Having listened to the ongoing concerns of students and new RMTs, we have spent considerable time pulling together, what we feel, is a focused product enabling attendees to prepare for entrepreneurship.
Delivering both a mix of interactive and lecture-based material, this course is
aimed at both existing RMT’s with experience in the field of massage
therapy, but also new graduates yet to gain that experience! Consequently,
taking the product away, attendees will be able to tailor their outcomes to their
own specific needs and goals.
Not only does this course review your options, it also tackles stock requirements,
accountancy, insurance billing, name registration and marketing together with
forward planning tools, which will aid YOU in your preparation for
entrepreneurship. The course provides not only the usual high standard of literature expected from a Dragonfly course, but additional BONUS MATERIAL which, we feel, will provide the new entrepreneur with a head start in their new business venture.

Investment: $700 + HST / $750 + HST after April 3, 2020
To register, please contact Cristy Harper at 204-698-1498 or harperkinetics@gmail.com
Course Site: Structural Essentials: Arches and Legs
The Structural Essential series is a set of intensive soft-tissue technique courses divided into functional regions. Combining movement and manual techniques for the most efficient and long-lasting results, and using the latest research on the interaction between skeleton, muscles, joints, and fascial proprioceptors, this series of workshops will take you to a new level in therapy.
Designed with the busy manual therapist in mind, each Structural Essentials event gives you a new understanding of the relevant area. The content will outline how the structural and functional anatomy relates to many common issues as well as to the rest of the body. Based on many new and established approaches this series will give you the skills in palpation, BodyReading and functional analysis needed for the modern multidisciplinary therapist.
Arches and the Legs – Underpinning all of our structure is the foot’s interaction with the ground, imbalances here clearly have consequences further up the body. Effective arch balance can be essential for easy and graceful walking, pelvic stability, low back efficiency and even head and neck support. The feet and legs are literally the foundation for the rest of our structure and this workshop will analyze the bones of the feet and how they conspire to help or hinder the arches. We will look at the forces coming from the leg muscles and create strategies to help maintain better mechanics by dealing with myofascial restrictions and imbalances.
The Knee and Thigh – A complicated hinge in the middle of two long levers is perhaps not the best of designs – but this “elbow designed by committee” is an excellent work of engineering. The knee joint mediates forces coming down from the hip and up from the foot and still allows a wide range of movement in all but the frontal plane.
Objectives
Note: It is strongly recommended to take the Anatomy Trains in Structure & Function course before taking the SE courses. Familiarity with the Anatomy Trains lines and concepts is key to getting the most from the program)
Begin your journey with Anatomy Trains in Structure & Function. Continue your journey with The Structural Essentials Series. These regional intensives combine global postural assessment with movement and manual techniques for efficient and long-lasting results. Each of the 6 Structural Essentials classes is based on consistent functional movement concepts, applied to everyday movement and our new understanding of myofascial efficiency and whole body response. Important research findings are integrated into the presentations, along with cutting-edge applications that can be used for clients on your next day in clinic.
Designed for the busy manual therapist, these workshops are most easily absorbed in the order outlined below but you can do them in any order as time permits.
This course is available on several dates in Canada. Please visit the site for more detail -> https://www.rhythmmassage.com.au/manual-lymphatic-drainage/
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a highly specialised technique that can be used to treat many injuries and pathologies. It can be performed as a preventative technique that bolsters our bodies' ability to rejuvenate and resist all types of stress.
MLD not only stimulates the vital functions of the skin, tissues and internal organs, but also serves to eliminate cellular waste and stimulate the parasympathetic relaxation response inhibiting muscle tonus and pain.
It provides an excellent tool for massage therapists when regular massage is contraindicated.
This unique training course covers the many dimensions of Manual Lymphatic Drainage:
By the end of this two day certification course, you’ll possess the ability to understand and perform a full lymphatic drainage with confidence and skill.
