This is a 16 hour, 2 day Live, Online course being offered over Zoom (the meeting platform) from 10:30am-7:30pm EST.
Join us for this 2-day, hands-on training and learn how to provide quick and effective pain management for the enhanced mobility of your clients with Cupping for Lymphatics.
This advanced course will detail the use of cupping for conditions of the lymphatic system. We will explore the indications and contraindications for using negative pressure in relation to the lymphatic system. We will look at the historical use of cupping for lymphatic drainage, and how cupping may be used to supplement handson lymphatic drainage treatments.
There is 2-way communication at all times, both audio and video, so the instructor and students are more involved the entire length of the course and lots of hands on time!
We provide you with information on how to treat common client complaints by using Cupping for Lymphatics for the overall outcome of your client’ treatment plan. We will cover techniques to use that are specific for the Lymphatic system.
***A previous Cupping course is a prerequisite for this advanced course! If you have not taken a cupping course please start with our 16 hour Evidence Informed Clinical Cupping course.
You will be able to take the course from the comfort of your home or office, over the internet.
What you will need is
- a laptop with a camera or a computer with a webcam or a tripod for your phone/tablet and a bit of space to work in. The camera will pick up what you are doing, so a way of using it close to you and hands free will be very helpful.
- a good quality internet connection
- a headset or headphones with a mic (the ones that come with most phones will work well) This will stop feedback from happening when people have open microphones.
- a person to practice on – not for the whole 2 days, a detailed time schedule will be sent prior to the course so you can make arrangements as needed. Some of the techniques can be practiced on yourself.
- massage table and linens, massage oil, and whatever makes you happy in your treatment room
- Hydrogen peroxide – if you are able to access it above 7.5% from a hydroponics store or a pool supply store. It is not mandatory for the course but required for disinfection once you begin working with clients again, so it is good to have on hand.
- You will need a set of cups. If you do not have cups check out our online sample pack.
The course will start at 10:30am through 7:30pm EST, each day. Please check your start time for your time zone
**We will be starting at 10:30am sharp each day, so please join us by 10:15am to get set up and settled.
