ICPKP® Ligament and Joint Management Certification Program
3 modules = 6x face to face classes
JAF 201 Temporomandibular Joint & Cranial Protocols
2-Day In-Person Class + 14 Hours Home Practice
This unit focuses on the cranial suture lines and temporomandibular joints (TMJ), areas often associated with pain, discomfort, and embarrassment due to issues like clicking jaws and dental-related problems. After completing this unit, you will be equipped to assess and restore energy balance in the TMJ and cranial sutures using advanced PKP techniques. These include rebreathing, simultaneous neurolymphatic-neurovascular stimulation, cranial inhalation and exhalation resets, sagittal suture cerebrospinal fluid techniques, and inferior occiput adjustments. These methods will allow you to address TMJ dysfunction effectively, offering clients relief and improving jaw and cranial function.
JAF 301 Ligament and Joint Protocols
2-Day In-Person Class + 14 Hours Home Practice
This unit focuses on joint and ligament dysfunction, examining how the shock-absorbing qualities of joints are compromised by trauma—whether physical, emotional, or mental—or by impaired adrenal function. You will explore the stages of adrenal decline, which result not only from physical overactivity but also from emotional overwhelm, mental exhaustion, and the spiritual consequences of not living in alignment with one’s life path or values. In PKP, you will learn that what may seem like a simple ligament sprain could actually be a sign of underlying adrenal insufficiency, requiring both local treatment and lifestyle changes for holistic healing. By completing this unit, you will develop skills to effectively assess joints in relation to adrenal fatigue or local injury, apply shock absorber techniques, perform ligament stretching (both local and adrenal-specific), and use contralateral joint ligament interlink techniques. Additionally, you will gain knowledge of nutritional strategies to support adrenal balance and overall well-being.
JAF 302 Inflexibility, Injury and Strain Protocols
2-Day In-Person Class + 14 Hours Home Practice
This third JAF unit focuses on improving flexibility and movement by addressing the underlying causes of inflexibility and postural deviations. While decreased flexibility and muscular imbalances are often attributed to stress and strain, when these issues do not respond to conventional treatments, the PKP practitioner understands that deeper tensions may be at play. For instance, tendon tightness can reflect life patterns as much as physical conditions, and the “unwinding” technique in PKP incorporates a holistic approach by addressing the mental and emotional factors behind physical tightness. This unit also explores the strain/counter-strain technique, an osteopathic approach to relieving pain caused by prolonged postural positions, which often includes emotional and mental rigidity. PKP offers unique techniques like injury recall, pitch, roll and yaw, strain/counterstrain, unwinding, homolateral muscles, CIA stretch, and shock absorber techniques to correct energy imbalances and enhance joint flexibility, providing a comprehensive solution for inflexibility.
