EQ1100 & EQ1110 Myofascial Release Level 1 and 2 package
EQ1100: Level 1
Author and instructor Ruth Mitchell-Golladay, PT leads this five-day course. All of us in the industry recognize Ruth as the “queen” of MFR! She has been featured many times in print, she is invited by physical therapy groups as well as veterinary groups to present workshops and she has been an invited guest on several talk shows.
Those already certified in Equine Sports Massage and other modalities will find that this dynamic approach fits in well with their work, adding a new dimension to it. Ruth will also do an MFR session on you so you can feel the touch of a professional. This experience will immediately carry over to the next you administer. You’ll discover wonderful results when you integrate these techniques into your existing sessions.Are you just beginning your studies in the equine healthcare industry? This is not a problem, you will find this an easy approach for understanding and apply the modality. Lots of hands-on! You will want to sign up for the EQ50: Equine Anatomy Distance Study Course well before the start of the course. The instructor is constantly allowing this course to evolve with her ever-increasing knowledge. Like many of our instructors, she too continues her education and enhances her practices by attending conferences, events, courses, and workshops.Participants are trained in the theory, concepts, and practice of Myofascial Release (MFR) as it pertains to the equine population. MFR restores the length and elasticity of the fascia creating long-term benefits.Following the course, students will immediately be able to produce positive structural changes, whether the problem is an acute or long-standing dysfunction, with this full body approach.
EQ1110: Level 2
Author and instructor Ruth Mitchell-Golladay, PT leads this three-day course. All of us in the industry recognize Ruth as the “queen” of MFR! She has been featured many times in print, she is invited by physical therapy groups as well as veterinary groups to present workshops and she has been an invited guest on several talk shows.
This course is designed for those individuals who have participated in the EQ1100 Equine Myofascial release course. Ruth will expand on the MFR techniques and will present exercises to address the body’s dysfunction enabling better recovery. There will be loads of problem-solving with various labs and lots of discussions. Each participant is asked to share one case study using Equine Myofascial Release Techniques (this is not required if you are doing the two MFR classes back to back). Documentation including initial exam, sessions completed and the outcome will be needed. Any visuals are welcome; please check with the office at least 3 weeks in advance if you require equipment which we may have on hand for your presentation. Ruth will direct the class discussion over each case study.
For this course your instructor Ruth Mitchell Golladay states that the course is very different from the Equine MFR I course. In the MFR I course where the emphasis is placed on the use of the right brain for listening to the body and using intuition, in the MFR II course students will be using the left brain to investigate the possible causes of certain restrictions. Additionally, the course will cover specific rehabilitation situations.
In an effort to enhance the seminar students are requested to bring the following to class (again not required if you are doing the 2 MFR classes back to back):
- A list of common or consistent problems/restrictions you have encountered while performing MFR in the pelvis/hind end
- A list of common or consistent problems/restrictions you have encountered while performing MFR in the neck/shoulder/front end
- A list of rehabilitation challenges you have faced
