COURSE DESCRIPTION:

In recent years, the medical community has made unprecedented strides in understanding the therapeutic uses of vibration. As new studies yield promising findings, our understanding of this powerful force deepens. For therapists planning to incorporate vibration technology, understanding the underlying science and distinguishing fact from fiction is essential. This knowledge not only ensures effective treatment but also safeguards against potential risks.

This course offers a thorough understanding of the fundamental properties of vibration and its significance in medical and therapeutic contexts. Particularly with Whole Body Vibration (WBV), vibration can unlock powerful health benefits. However, it’s essential to recognize that misuse or misunderstanding can lead to negative outcomes.

Additionally, enhance your massage practice by integrating concepts related to how vibration affects clients, especially those who experience overexposure to workplace vibrations or daily sound pollution, which can result in both physical and psychological stress. Are there specific frequencies that can provide health benefits? Which frequencies are deemed safe for human tissue? Which ones are most beneficial for cartilage, joints, disc collagen, muscles, and bones? Might therapists make different treatment decisions based on their understanding of vibrations? Explore the connection between vibration and emotional well-being and how various breath-control techniques can influence this dynamic. Hear insights from Dr. Hameroff on the remarkable quantum vibrations found in brain neurons. And for those interested in tuning forks, we discuss applications used by massage therapists, neurologists, and orthopedic doctors, alongside relevant studies involving diabetic patients, and complement them with insightful videos on the subject.

By the end of this course, you will fully understand why the human body has been coined “a magnificent quantum physics machine.”

(SOM Therapy massage technique videos and other professional viewing are part of this comprehensive 12-hour program). 

COURSE OBJECTIVE AND OUTCOMES

• List various forms of vibration, demonstrating knowledge of the subject.
• Discuss various forms of vibration, confirming knowledge and understanding of each form.
• Discuss safety factors related to vibratory equipment, identifying contraindications, and promoting ethical practices.
• Explain safety factors specific to whole body vibration, preventing accidents, injury, or long-term adverse effects on therapists, employees, and clients.
• Differentiate between the effects of vibration in daily life and those of vibration therapies, and professionally inform clients about these differences.
• Address and dispel fears stemming from misinformation, establish parameters for application and contraindications, and promote the effective and safe use of vibration equipment and hands-on techniques.
• Recognize work-related vibrational overexposures, recommending beneficial modalities, and discussing contraindications.
• Observe videos of hands-on vibration and shaking techniques and integrate them into general and specialized therapy sessions.
• Observe a variety of videos on vibration and quantum phenomena, which enhance and support the knowledge presented in the course materials.
• Utilize the anatomical variations, angles, and props seen in SOM videos to accommodate individual needs, prevent positional pain, assist with the “letting go” process, and support drainage in areas such as the lungs and lymphatic system.
• Engage a client in focused breathing to elicit parasympathetic responses, facilitating the “letting go” process during therapy and promoting systemic healing.
• Differentiate between vibratory frequencies and resonances affecting the human body and how they guide therapeutic decision-making processes.
• Connect the principles of quantum science with biosciences, understanding the implications for the future of healthcare, and identify areas for improvement, particularly due to previous gaps in modern research protocols.
• Compare historical and contemporary perspectives on quantum science and its associated vibrational qualities, drawing on strong research findings and shared studies, recognizing its prevalence in daily life and the potential to enhance accuracy in massage applications.
• Make professional decisions based on advanced knowledge, rather than relying solely on surface-level knowledge when assisting clients with unique situations.
• Design informational brochures to educate clients and build confidence in the therapist’s ability to deliver quality therapeutic sessions tailored to individual needs.
• Gain experience with specialized vibrational equipment and protocols used by other healthcare professionals, collaborating effectively as a team when treating the same clients.
• Integrate the knowledge and skills acquired from this course with those of allopathic medical professionals, providing enhanced benefits to clients with various diseases, disorders, and injuries, such as cerebral palsy, cancer, cystic fibrosis, and Parkinson’s disease.
