Fascial Connections and Acupuncture Under the leadership of Lynn Pearce
Wednesday 22nd May 2013
2pm-‐8pm
Cost -‐ £150 including light refreshments
Open to physiotherapists who have completed a basic acupuncture foundation course (limited places)
This one-‐day course looks at the apparent similarities between the Tendino-‐Muscular Meridians (from Chinese Medicine practice) and the theory and structure of the Anatomy Trains approach to myofascial linkage within the body. This is a chance to think about using your acupuncture in a much more dynamic way.
The speaker
Lynn Pearce is a Chartered Physiotherapist and Licensed Acupuncturist. She runs a number of courses, from Foundation level, through to various CPD days. She is also employed by Coventry University on their modular Masters in Acupuncture. Her interest lies in applying Chinese Medical Theory to western diagnosis and formulating treatments that blend the two approaches make sense and are useable by therapists utilising acupuncture.
The course content
• Overview of 'what' the meridians may represent • Discuss the binding sites or 'stations' – areas of tension/structural gathering of
tissue which if released can affect a much larger area and change function. • Give an overview of the Tendino-‐Muscular meridians or Sinew Meridian and
Anatomy Trains. • Explore the common ground between these two systems, using acupuncture
to release these tight areas. • Offer a new approach to treatment – notably in effecting large areas and
patterns of dysfunction quickly, and allowing points distal to the areas being worked on with manual therapy to be used as an adjunct to treatment.
