This course covers all things head and neck - focusing on the TMJ, mouth, face, throat and cranial structures interface.  It looks at balance, speech, voice, larynx, respiratory dynamics, thoracic inlet, axillary and chest dynamics.

It also reviews the social engagement system, the vagus and communication, and gives variations on many techniques, including the ventral cervical spine and ventral fascial systems.  WATCH THE VIDEO TO SEE WHAT THIS OPTION CONTAINS.  Over 30 hours of lecture videos, other technique videos and explanatory videos and articles, online resources and useful guides and information.   ACCESS - INDEFINATE - watch / access all the resources as many time as you like.  Please note: if you are a clinic owner and want to buy access for your associates you can have a bulk discount on second and subsequent purchases you buy of the same series.  Please contact me directly to organise.
