Course Overview

This 6 hour course will help you master Muscle Tendon Pain and Pathology. Featuring the Korean protocols of VST (Vertex Synchronizing T) and Kinetic Acupuncture. Taught be Dr. Evan Mahoney, student of both Dr.'s Jonghwa Lee and Hyungsuk Choi.
This class features Dr. Jonghwa Lee's VST Acupuncture which is a trigger point protocol based on Range of Motion Analysis and muscle shortening affecting (in this video) the neck and shoulder, lower back and hip vertexes.
We feature all the range of motion tests and identified shortened muscles needed to be treated with VST acupuncture. The student will learn and understand agonist and particularly antagonist muscles and how they affect alignment of joint, structures, and tensegrity. The student will also learn the many pathologies of muscle shortening due to presence of knots (trigger points) in the muscles.
Featuring also Dr. Hyungsuk Choi's Kinetic Acupuncture the student will learn how to treat trigger point pathology using movement exercises with acupuncture needles in place. This class features Kinetic Acupuncture procedures for the hands, wrists, fingers, elbows, shoulders, neck, toes, ankles, feet, knees, hips (lateral and medial), and lower back.
Using these protocols the student will become a master of pain and pathology. The student's confidence, skill, and reputation will be enhanced as they deliver on their favorable prognosis given to patients, thanks to these procedures.
