7 The Advanced Myofascial Techniques Series Since 1989, this popular series of seminars presents practicing somatic therapists and qualified students with advanced and little-known myofascial techniques which can be easily incorporated into existing personal styles. Drawing on a wide range of disciplines, the focus is on unusual, interesting, and fresh approaches that will both expand technique repertoire and inspire creativity and innovation. Potential topics include: Specific techniques for common structural and functional complaints Relieving pain, restoring lost function, and getting lasting results Utilizing both active and passive movement to enhance effectiveness Precision in working with specific tissue types and body layers Combining indirect or subtle work with deep or direct work Tracking subtle psychophysiological and nervous system responses Ways to work sensitively, safely, and comfortably at very deep levels. The Advanced Myofascial Techniques workshop series presents a comprehensive system for working with the body in its entirety, encompassing over 20 session sequences and more than 200 techniques, tests, and procedures. Workshops in the series may be taken individually, or combined in any order. The five principle courses include: Arm, Wrist, & Shoulder Legs, Knees, & Feet Pelvis, Hip, & Sacrum Neck, Jaw, & Head Spine, Ribs, & Low Back Specialty courses include: Whiplash (2 days) Scoliosis (2 days) Sciatica & Disc Issues Advanced Knee Issues TMJ Headaches Myofascial Essentials Myofascial Mastery Adv Ilia & Sacrum (2 days)...and others. These courses are intended for trained practitioners and students of hands-on body therapies (for example, Bodyworkers, Physical Therapists, Rolfers, Chiropractors, Structural Integration Practitioners, Massage Therapists, Neuro-Muscular Therapists, and other somatic practitioners, etc.) Completion of the 5 principle courses plus electives leads to optional Certification in Advanced Myofascial Techniques (CAMT).

18 Lumbar Tests Lumbal-Tests A-02 P Straight-Leg Test (SLT) or Lasègue Test: client raises straightened leg at the hip (with knee extended). Increased pain can indicate lumbar or disc involvement. (Pain in opposite leg can be due to more severe disc herniation and is cause for referral). Criteria for positive SLT: 1. Sciatic pain at 30 to 70 degrees of hip flexion (70 is pictured); 2. Aggravation of pain with ankle dorsiflexion; 3. Relief of pain by knee flexion. Slump test variation: client curls spine and neck into slight flexion, while raising leg. Increased pain with slumping considered positive for dural tethering at nerve roots. Positional variations: Client can also be supine, or tests can be performed passively. Bowstring variation: with practitioner stabilizing client s hip at angle of maximum change in sciatic symptoms, knee is slightly flexed, usually relieving symptoms. Pressure with thumbs into the popliteal space will worsen symptoms when sciatic nerve is involved, due to stretch on nerve. Positive sign indicates peripheral sciatic nerve involvement.
19 Piriformis Test Piriformis-Test A-03 P Increased pain with hip flexion and adduction can indicate piriformis or hamstring involvement in sciatic pain. Variations: Client can be sitting (as pictured) or supine. Test can be active (as pictured), or performed passively. Increased pain with resisted active external rotation of a straight leg can also indicate piriformis involvement. Some sources suggest that including the passive and supine variations in assessment increase the accuracy of the Straight Leg and Piriformis Tests. Other sources purport that positional differences in results suggest malingering (purposeful feigning of physical symptoms for secondary gain).
20 Iliac Crest Crista iliaca A-04 D 06.99
21 Lumbar Space: Obliques Lumbalraum: Mm Obliqui A-05 D
22 Lumbar/Visceral Space Dekompression Lumbal- / Viszeralraum A-06 D Feel for anterior release of viscera from lumbars, while counter-rotating lumbars by lifting knees (or rolling pelvis with ASIS--lower photo). Modified version of one of Peter Schwind s Fascia & Membrane techniques. Variation: client supine with knees up; counter-rotate knees and viscera (as in side-lying version).
23 Psoas: Medial Aspect Psoas: Medialer Aspekt A-07 D Drop both knees off to one side to roll psoas away from lumbars. Passive or active. Ventral nerve roots of L3 and L4 nerves run through and medial to psoas. (L4 joins nerves L5-S3 to form the sciatic nerve.)
24 SI Release: Anterior/Posterior Lösen der ISG: anterior / posterior A-08 I Lift on one side of sacrum from under client, while applying counter-pressure on ASIS; feel for anterior/posterior release
25 B-01 b. APPENDICULAR SEQUENCE Intentions / Goals: 1. and reduce any neural: 2., 3., or 4. tethering. Indications: 5. back, 6. and/or 7. thigh pain, with: Positve 8. Test.
26 Sciatic Nerve Glide Test Ischiasnerv: Gleittest B-02 P Direct client to compare the sensations of straightening the affected and unaffected legs. If straightening the affected leg increases sciatic pain, nerve tethering could be a factor (at or proximal to the site of reported pain). Use Sciatic Nerve techniques to locate and release neural sheath adhesions. In general, work proximal to distal, retesting to track improvement. Straightening leg (extend knee). [If pain increases with knee extension:] Where do you feel it most? (Can often indicate site of tethering.) Can be helpful as a take-home client exercise/stretch. Clients should be cautioned not to overdo it, so as to avoid irritating an inflamed sciatic nerve. Variations (not pictured): 1. Positive test result when bringing leg across the body (knee extension with hip flexion with adduction) can indicate piriformis or hamstring involvement. 2. Placing the sole of the passive leg on the table by raising the knee can help differentiate between lumbar and non-lumbar tethering. Since knee-up position decreases lumbar extension, suspect tethering at lumbars if having passive leg s knee up decreases pain.
27 Gluteus Medius, Minimus (Side-lying) Gluteus medius, minimus (Seitenlage) B-03 D
28 Leg Rocking (prone) Beinschaukeln (Bauchlage) B-04 P Rhythmic femur rotation at hip joint. Feel for release of hip and leg tonus. Client can be supine or prone
29 Piriformis Pool-Cue Piriformis: Billardstock B-05 D Passive internal and external femoral rotation; Passive traction with abduction (by wrapping lower leg around practitioner s back); Active external rotation. SI variation: slight leg abduction, passive hip flexion (lifting leg off table). Keep lumbars long and in neutral. Thanks to Erik Dalton ( Piriformis and SI Joint Release Technique ).
30 Sacrotuberous Ligaments II Ligamentum sacrotuberale II B-06 D Ligament lies anterior to Gluteus Maximus. Working from opposite side, press into inferio-medial margin of ligament and wait for release. Since some fibers of piriformis attach to the sacrotuberous ligament, use passive or active femur rotation to differentiate tissues around ligament. Explain and ask for permission first
31 Biceps Femoris/Adductor Magnus Biceps femoris / Adductor magnus B-07 D Roll biceps femoris laterally, adductor magnus medially to free the passageway for the sciatic nerve.
32 Sciatic Nerve: Prone Ischiasnerv: Bauchlage B-08 D Passively flex and extend knee to glide nerve.
33 Sciatic Nerve: Supine A Ischiasnerv: Rückenlage A B-09 D Knee up. Feeling between hamstring bellies for nerve track. Client gently pulls knee towards chest; or extends knee; or brings leg across body (hip flexion with adduction). Hamstring variation: work bellies of hamstrings themselves.

36 X-01 SUPPLEMENTAL TECHNIQUES (Demonstrated on DVD)
37 Lumbar Test Variations Lumbal-Tests XA-02 P 1. Slump test variation: client curls spine and neck into slight flexion, while raising leg. Increased pain with slumping considered positive for dural tethering at nerve roots. 2.Bowstring variation: with practitioner stabilizing client s hip at angle of maximum change in sciatic symptoms, knee is slightly flexed, usually relieving symptoms. Pressure with thumbs into the popliteal space will worsen symptoms when sciatic nerve is involved, due to stretch on nerve. Positive sign indicates peripheral sciatic nerve involvement. Positional variations: Client can also be supine, or tests can be performed passively.
38 L4/L5/S1 Decompression (Prone) Dekompression L4 / L5 / S1 (Bauchlage) XA-03 D Prone, knees up, slowly rolling pelvis with knees. Use gentle pressure to feel for evenness of left/right lumbar vertebrae mobility. Avoid pushing lumbars too far forward and so creating more lordosis.
39 Psoas: Prone Psoas: Bauchlage XA-04 D
40 Iliolumbar Ligaments: Anterior Aspect Ligamentum iliolumbale: anteriorer Aspekt XA-05 D Hip flexion, maintaining length in lumbers. Variation: use knuckles or even forearm (carefully) in clients with longer waists. Use with caution when lumbar disc issues are known or suspected.
41 L4/L5/S1 Decompression (Side-Lying) Dekompression L4 / L5 / S1 (Seitenlage) XA-06 D Client position: side-lying, knees bent and at table s edge, lower legs off table to sidebend and open lumbar spine. Decompress and de-rotate lumbars with local work on lumbars as well as global work between segments. Use listening touch, direct pressure, gentle twists, etc. Use with caution when lumbar disc issues are known or suspected.
42 Twists Drehungen Torceduras Intention: length in lumbar space; integration. XA-07 I Spinal foramen are usually opened by contralateral rotation. For example, leftside foramen symptoms will typically be relieved by rotating the truck to the right (lower photo). Use with caution when lumbar disc issues are known or suspected. Avoid rotation with acute disc issues
43 Lumbar/Viscera Decompression II Dekompression Lumbal- / Viszeralraum II XA-08 D Feel for lateral release of viscera from lumbars, while counter-rotating lumbars by dropping knees. Modified version of one of Peter Schwind s Fascia & Membrane techniques.
44 Leg-Over Twists Beine über Kreuz drehen XB-09 D Use position to locate and release any sciatic nerve tethering in hip or leg
45 Piriformis & Rotators Piriformis & Rotatoren XB-10 D Feel and release rotators around their attachments on greater trochanter, and piriformis attachments on sacrum. Indicated for sciatica, etc. Avoid irritating sciatic nerve with excessive direct work on the nerve itself
46 Medial Hamstring Origins Mediale Ursprünge der hinteren XB-11 D Pelvic rocking, knee flexion 07.99
47 Pigeon Pose Taubenstellung XB-12 I Salamba Kapotasana Variation: supine
48 Pigeon Pose (Supine) Taubenstellung (Rückenlage) XB-13 I
49 Rotator Stretch (Seated) Dehnen der Rotatoren (im Sitzen) XB-14 I Equalize contact of left and right ischial tuberosities with the floor. Feel for stretch in rotators and hip joints. Variation: forward bend; or, varying amounts of hip adduction and abduction. Guptasana
50 Sacrospinous Ligaments, Coccyx Ligamentum sacrospinale, Coccyx XB-15 D The sacrospinous ligament is anterior to sacrotuberous ligament; medial fibers attach to coccyx.
51 Sciatic Nerve: Supine B Ischiasnerv: Rückenlage B XB-16 D From underneath, feeling between hamstring bellies for nerve track, as in lower photo. (Upper photo shows hand position only.) Client slightly flexes and releases knee to lengthen nerve.
