Courses Offered
Level 1 Courses
Posturology 101 (Prerequisite for Certification Level I)
For several decades, Paul St. John and his colleagues have been studying posture; how
the components of the human body affect posture, and how posture reflects the function of
those components. This developing area has come to be known as Posturology, the
science of human balance in every physiological condition. Research from Europe dating
back to the days of Galileo to the present is included, along with Paul St. John’s extensive
research, in this exciting new direction in pain relief therapy.
In Posturology 101, pain relief specialist I will guide you through the centuries from the
earliest recorded studies of posture and imbalance to his most recent findings in his
practice. He will share areas of pain causing dysfunctions that create imbalance. This
application is the primary component in Integrative Neurosomatic Therapy.
Our goal is to have you leave the course competent in the basic concepts and enlighten
you on the importance of being able to measure and document posture accurately.
Several examples of postural distortions will be given with their causes and subsequent
treatment methods to allow you to understand the impact of this exciting new area of
study. As an Integrative Neurosomatic Therapist your capacity to help patients in pain
starts with your ability to measure, document, and interpret posture. This course is the first
step in the journey to helping your clients heal fully.
Integrative Approaches to Low Back Pain – Level 1A
This course, the first of four specialized courses on the road to certification, focuses on the
low back and pelvis. Paul St. John and his colleagues have developed this course based

needed for Level 1 certification in Integrative Neurosomatic Therapy.
Integrative Approaches to Low Back Pain isolates 15 muscle groups effecting the low back
by the origin, insertion and function of each individual muscle. You will be taught the
answers to “Why do we treat?, a section of the manual that details possible pain causing
dysfunctions and how they affect other functions of the body. Trigger points will be
identified in each area along with associated patient symptoms. I will share with you
specific treatment for each area in a step by step – hands on manner. You will be able to
implement the most effective treatment methods in your own practice after one weekend .
Throughout the course, each muscle group section will include specific stretches and

area of treatment for a pain free patient.

treat?” , a section of your manual which details possible pain causing dysfunctions and how
they affect other functions of the body. Trigger points are identified in each area along
with associated patient symptoms. I will share with you specific treatment for each area in a
step by step – hands on manner. You will be able to implement the most effective
treatment methods in your own practice after one weekend with Neurosomatic Educators.
