Osteopathic Manipulation Training Courses

Expand your cervical and thoracic treatment skills with incorporating Heart/Lung/Thoracic Cage Mobilization techniques. Led by experienced Physical Therapist and Canadian Trained Osteopath Tim Bonack PT, DOMP(C), DScO, you will gain insight and skills in treating everyday and more challenging patients alike.

In these courses, you’ll learn to assess and treat vital structures within the thoracic cage. These techniques are phenomenal to apply for neck pain, rib cage and thoracic dysfunction, inefficient posture and pressure management, in addition to heart and thoracic cage health. Have you ever been frustrated by a patient who continues to have a forward head posture? A patient that complains of shortness of breath? Or reports difficulty swallowing food? Reflux? Or what about someone who does all of the foam rolling and pectoral stretching but cannot gain thoracic spinal extension? Heart, lung and thoracic cage mobility is a large factor in all of these conditions and more.

Through practical, hands-on instruction, you’ll master the art of gently mobilizing the heart, lungs, thoracic cage, and associated structures; thereby enhancing mobility and flexibility in the rib cage, cervical and thoracic spine, and the diaphragm. This newfound flexibility can have a profound impact on mobility and alignment of thoracic cage and spine, improve cervical spine mobility and head position, as well as impacts upon the cranial system.

Learn how to stand out to your patients and your peers, as you learn this new treatment method and get these more chronic patients pain free.

The Heart/Thoracic Cage I course is the first in a series of 3 courses on the thoracic cage region that expand your palpation, evaluation, and treatment skills over time. This first level class is a foundation and prerequisite of enrollment in the Level II and Level III courses.
