Orientation to Module A (with explanation of what to watch and do before Lab on Wednesday)

**1) Technique Introduction -- the basic neck session (Watch this video first.)

**Basic neck session practitioner notes, with session summaries at the end for quick reference.

Q&A: vertigo and dizzyness

Q&A: tinnitus

**2) Demonstration: Nicole's Session 1 (This is an example of the full basic neck session. Watch sometime during the first week of Module A. Instead of following along, make a few notes on what you notice worked well, and what you might do differently.)

3) Technique -- artery supply to trapezius and scalenes

4) Technique -- freeing the subtrapezial plexus and accessory nerve

5) Technique - occipital artery and occipital nerves

6) Technique - supraclavicular nerve

7) Technique - brachial plexus

Technique Review - supraclavicular nerve

Anatomy Review - supraclavicular nerve, brachial plexus nerves, and circumflex humeral artery

Module A Lab

Module A Seminar

Module A "office hours" - Session 1

Module A "office hours" - Session 2 (brachial plexus review)

Orientation to Module B

1) First Lesson of Module B - Intercostal work

illustrations of intercostal contact points and "wilted flower" contact point

2) Demo - using a ball on the floor to address spinal erectors. This is for spot work after the intercostal work, as needed.

3) Demo - using the ball against the wall to address spinal erectors. This too is for spot work. Easier alternative for people who don't easily get up off the floor.

Nicole Session 2 -- full thoracic protocol, working all the intercostal spaces, but no use of ball for spinal erectors

4) Q&A - after practicing intercostal work

Nicole Session 5 (an example of using "spot work" for the the thorax)

Tiger Stripes article - manual work for intercostal spaces (not required reading, but interesting to check out at some point)

6) ball technique on the floor for spinal erectors (full lesson)

Movement-Based NVR notes - erector spinae, floor

7) ball technique on the wall for spinal erectors (full lesson)

Movement-Based NVR notes - erector spinae, wall

Module B Lab

Module B Seminar

Module B "Office Hours" - Session 1

Module B "Office Hours" - Session 2

Orientation to Module C, priorities and timing for video watching - please read overview for module

1) ball on floor - superior gluteal artery and nerve (includes anatomy)

Movement-Based NVR notes - posterior hip, floor

2) ball on wall - superior gluteal nerve and artery (hip abductors)

Movement-Based NVR notes - hip abductors, wall

3) iliacus, psoas, and artery supply into lower extremity (we also discuss contraindications and cautions for thoracic and abdominal work)

4) anatomy - posterior thigh, perforating arteries supplying hamstrings (plus how to share your view of the Complete Anatomy App on Zoom)

Movement-Based NVR notes - thigh lesson

5a) First part of thigh class - Q&A about psoas work

5b) Anatomy for thigh techniques (more comprehensive than the other anatomy video)

5c) Working around the sitting bone (posterior femoral cutaneous nerve, pudendal nerve)

5d) Working behind greater trochanter and just lateral to upper hamstrings (perforating arteries at posterior lateral thigh)

5e) Artery supply to hamstrings
