Course Description:

Arborization, Seams and Fluid Fields of the Head and Beyond

There is one movement for segmentation in the Whole coming from the Central Stillness; the Stillness linked to the expression of the essence of who we are. Seams arborize from this Stillness and the fluid fields develop as a result of this relationship. The tempo and expression of these elements are all part of growth and development. This course will explore how fluid fields and seams are developed in the face, head and neck and how this is intricately related to the Whole. The use of these fluid fields, seams and the Stillness from which they arise will be explored and clinical applications emphasized.

Detailed embryological slides will be shown and Dr. Eric Blechschmidt’s work on Biokinetics and Biodynamics of embryology will be studied.

In the spirit of “Digging on”, we are moving into Osteopathy as a whole using historic references and bringing it alive to breathe and be free to grow and develop as a profession and as Osteopaths individually.

Participates are recommend to have a skill level equivalent to a Phase IV at the Center for Traditional Osteopathy, ready to explore embryological development of the face.

Suggested Prerequisites:
Seams, Stillness & Segmentation, Midline & Ignition, BioBasics, Potency, potency and the fluid in the fluid, Phases I-IV or equivalent, The Brain and the Tide, Basic Cranial course given by the Cranial Academy or SCTF or international equivalent
