CANS – CRANEAL AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
In this program, we will explore the role of th parasympathetic systems and cerebral parasympathetic, along with the cranial vascular system, which is often overlooked in many branches of medicine. However, these systems are fundamental, as they function as regulators of bodily and emotional functions, frequently being the root cause of various pathologies and autonomic dysregulations.
The course focuses on sympathetic and parasympathetic release of the cranial system, as well as treatment of the cerebral vascular system, providing tools to restore balance and facilitate regulation of the entire autonomic nervous system. Through innovative, precise, and painless techniques, participants will address both immediate functional issues and complex pathologies, delivering patient wellbeing and improved quality of life.
- Manual therapists.
- Physicians.
- Osteopaths.
- Other healthcare professionals certified or licensed in the cranial system.
It is ideal for those seeking to integrate advanced tools to address cranial and neurovascular dysfunctions from a comprehensive approach.
Upon completing this training, participants will be able to:
- Thoroughly understand the pelvic-cranial autonomic nervous system relationship.
- Evaluate and treat sympathetic, parasympathetic, and cranial vascular dysfunctions.
- Apply precise techniques to facilitate autonomic and functional regulation in patients with cranial and emotional dysfunctions.
- Integrate a therapeutic approach that combines the nervous, vascular, and functional systems for a holistic treatment.
- Use advanced differential diagnoses to identify structural and functional abnormalities in the skull and brain.
Physical conditions addressed:
- Chronic pain.
- Gastric and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems.
- Tachycardia and respiratory problems.
- Alterations in swallowing and posture.
- Disorders in swallowing and posture: Migraines, headaches, and vision or hearing problems.
- Neck pain and dental problems.
Emotional conditions addressed:
- Anxiety/panic attacks.
- Sleep disorders.
- Chronic stress/emotional dysregulation.
- Addictions and compulsions.
- Depression and post-traumatic disorders.
- Communication/emotional connection issues.
