Course Overview
This 2-day cutting-edge course will teach the practitioner how to assess postural dysfunction and prescribe therapeutic exercises for postural, muscle and channel imbalances that have directly contributed to the patient's musculoskeletal injury. This course will teach the acupuncturist important skills to prescribe specific exercises in the management of their patient’s health care. Exercising different body parts simultaneously in specific and coordinated motions activates the myofascial sinew channels so that form and function can align. The practitioner will learn to integrate acupuncture protocols with exercise prescription, including how to use intra-dermal needle point prescriptions on the Extraordinary Vessel master points to alleviate discomfort, increase proprioception and enhance clinical outcomes.

SMAC's PACE courses are challenging and full of immediately useful clinical information. These courses help the practitioner to understand how the body moves in both functional and dysfunctional patterns. The courses start very basic and build, so no matter your level of experience, they are relevant. When we understand how posture and movement can cause or exacerbate an injury, we can also learn how to make a change! Bravo to Ian, Matt and Brian for another great class, I will be rewatching this one!
