Ethics and Emotions: Practitioner-Client Relationships
Oct 23-24, 2020 (Fri-Sat) (Fulfills requirement for SOBI trainings) When Clients' Emotions Surface Oct 25, 2020 (Sun) Instructor: Sara Sunstein Canby, Oregon (Near Portland) (Both Pre-requesite 32 hours of Ortho-Bionomy® classes and 10 hours of practice) |
Ethics and Emotions:Practitioner-Client Relationships (Oct 23-24)
One’s ethics begin with one's relationship with her/himself. From there, one moves into establishing relationships with others; in this case, our relationships with clients and colleagues. This class delves into both. Through discussion, role-play, and hands-on exercises, students come to a deeper awareness of their own process and development as ethical and authentic practitioners.
When Clients’ Emotions Surface (Oct 25)
An introduction to addressing emotions in the body when they surface, and remaining within scope of practice. Learn affirming language, beingness, and hands-on (and -off) to support your clients’ understanding and resolving of body-psyche interweavings.

Releases for the Upper Extremities
“Structure Governs Function” Class Instructor: Jim Berns Nov 14-15, 2020 East West College of the Healing Arts Portland, Oregon (No pre-requesite) |
Releases for the Upper Extremities “Structure Governs Function” Class
'Structure Governs Function' is an Osteopathic principle that works with the understanding that when the musculo-skeletal system is balanced properly the functioning (blood, nerve, emotions, meridian) of the body will flow more efficiently. This osteopathic principle has allowed me to help more of my clients out of pain than any other technique I have studied. The Releases for the UPPER EXTREMITIES ‘Structure Governs Function’ CLASS uses Osteopathic-based gentle body positions and movements to stimulate self-correcting reflexes within the muscles and nerves. These responses can move the client out of pain and discomfort within 10-30 seconds. This method is very specific and structure-oriented.
