Neuro-Lymphatic Drainage ​Lymphatic Drainage Certification
FMI: text 719/231-5715
Neuro-Lymphatic Drainage is a recognized form of therapy that is just coming into its own. ATIT's Neuro-Lymphatic Certification Program was the first in the nation in 2004 to offer such a unique curriculum. Today, it is still one of a kind. At ATIT, our curriculum teaches a comprehensive way of working with the lymph by teaching four very specific, yet intertwined modalities. Chapman's Neuro-Lymphatic Reflex Points, Color Light Therapy, Lymphatic Drainage & Foundational Pelvic Balancing.
Chapman's Neuro-lymphatic Reflex Points help enhance energy levels & creates increased endurance while addressing root cause. It is actually a form of whole body Reflexology that few people know and even fewer teach. By stimulating particular Chapman's Reflex points, it creates lymph flow across the nervous system and stimulates organs to enhanced and optimal function. Chapman's works with many auto-immune disorders, chronic illnesses, lymphatic issues & heart disease as an adjunctive modality. This dynamic way of working with the body can be truly life changing for people in their ability to have a more functional and balanced life.
Color Light Therapy for Toxin Elimination, enhanced Endocrine balance & reduction of Lymphatic Stagnation will also be taught. Again, this modality seeks to understand and work with the physical & psycho-emotional aspects of illness at a very deep level in the Acupressure System. Color Light Therapy works with many auto-immune disorders and chronic illnesses. When combining Color Light Therapy with Chapman's, it can have profound effects that each modality alone cannot create. Combined it enhances optimal balancing of the body.
Without Foundational Pelvic Balancing, the lymph cannot flow through the body effectively. If the pelvis is not balanced, lymph backs up in the legs. The pelvis can be the difference between finding long term relief and having repeated issues with improper lymph flow. Students will also learn Foundational Pelvic Balancing & balancing the thoracic floor to help with lymph flow.
Lymphatic Drainage is the final technique we teach in ATIT's Neuro-Lymphatic Drainage Certification Program. It helps with pain from swelling due to edema, heart disease and inflammation in the body. Lymphatic Drainage is quite profound in what it can do for people that experience debilitating pain caused by swelling.
Therapists coming out of this program will have considerable knowledge of the lymphatic & endocrine system along with how to properly facilitate releases on the lymphatic system in combination with the foundational structures.
Even if you have had Lymphatic Drainage classes before, you will not want to miss these advanced trainings. Individual classes are offered as CE's to professional therapists.
