Understand & Transform Chronic Pain

Course Description

This class will review the latest neuroscience the brain plays in the perception and persistence of pain. This knowledge will quickly help us see the difference between “neuroplastic” and structurally caused pain. Understanding this is essential for consistent and successful treatment. First, we’ll review techniques to address the neuro-circuitry linked to chronic pain. Then we’ll use somatic education to change inefficient patterns of dysfunction. Therapeutically we’ll use “awareness-based touch and movement” to awaken proprioceptive centers and stimulate healthier neurological activity. A variety of injuries, pathologies and conditions will be discussed to make the information relevant for actual practice. Trained in both manual and movement therapies, Arnold is Guild Certified in the Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education® and a licensed massage therapist in the State of Alabama. He is also certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy by Howard Schubinar, MD, author of “Unlearn Your Pain”. The emphasis of his work is helping people experience improvements that spark their curiosity in how to reproduce these results independently. It is his strong belief that there is always room to be more comfortable and healthier, even amidst a chaotic and stressful world. Please visit somaticsolution.com to register for this class.
