SEMINAR PROGRAM
We changed our Medical Massage seminar settings:
- SOMI seminars are highly curated and limited. We, therefore, aspire to work with therapists dedicated to the clinical application of Massage Therapy and who are going to be decisive in-patient care. If you are looking only for CEU’s please consider other educational sources to give space to committed candidates.
- We are moving to smaller class sizes to provide therapists with more personal attention and expedite their professional growth in the Medical Massage field.
- We will offer some online classes to help therapists finish their Medical Massage Certification program sooner.
- We encourage therapists who already took SOMI’s seminars to get in touch with our instructors and our former and current students for ongoing support and clinical guidance in complex treatment cases.
Saturday: Introduction to Medical Massage from Theory to Application.
The first day of lecture opens the door to the clinical application of Medical Massage. The goal is to build a mental vision of the Medical Massage Concept based on the best scientific data available up to date. We only present referenced scientific data.
Sunday: Medical Massage Protocol for Piriformis Muscle Syndrome/Sciatica Hands-On Training Course
This course discusses the unique role that piriformis muscle tension plays in the clinical picture of Sciatica. We also cover the lesser-known role of the Piriformis Muscle Syndrome as it relates to the normal functioning of the sacral plexus, which controls the inner organs in the abdominal and pelvic cavities. We conduct a step-by-step clinical evaluation of tension in different parts of the piriformis muscle. The course concludes with training on an effective treatment protocol that eliminates piriformis muscle tension and decompresses the sciatic nerve and sacral plexus.
Monday: Medical Massage Protocols for Plantar Fasciitis and Soft Tissue Trauma/Leg Compartment Syndrome Hands-On Training Course
This course consists of two parts:
1. Before lunch, we cover the causes of PF, and conduct a clinical evaluation, followed by a step-by-step treatment strategy for PF and PF complicated by Calcaneal Spur Syndrome.
2. In the second half of the day, we discuss treatment, a strategy for soft tissue acute trauma, and Leg Compartment Syndrome–a frequent cause of leg pain in athletes and sports enthusiasts.
SOMI’s CEU training program has been tested by Saybrook University where the United States’ first PhD in Medical Massage was awarded to our former student Dr. Karen Moody, PhD, CMMP, LMT. SOMI’s Medical Massage protocols are being successfully used in major hospitals and medical institutions such as the Barrow Neurological Institute, Dignity Health, St. Joseph’s Hospital & Medical Centers among others. Our publications are widely used by the Integrative Medicine Department of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester as well as universities, colleges and massage schools across the nation
