In this training the therapist will explore their internal cranial vault utilizing skull models
and self. They will practice anatomic location during lab and review the twelve cranial
nerves and their association with each other.

Protocols will first be demonstrated on skull models reviewed in a demonstration and
then practiced by students.

Client assisted treatment is effective to relieve many causes of headache, sinus
congestion, tempromandibular joint dysfunction, ankyloglossia, “tongue tied” and painful
mastication. This class demonstrates the synergy of client assisted inter oral cranial
release. Student will self apply and review how to “teach clients” inter oral anatomy to
facilitate release of internal tension during a treatment session.

This work is intended for adult patients only. Specific training is required to work with
oncology patients,
