Course Objectives:

In this 3-day course (24 hours), attendees learn through course discussion and direct, hands-on supervised practice. Attendees will gain specific instruction on how to release tension of the Tendon Guard Reflex, relax the muscular tension in the whole body, activate the proprioceptive system and body structure links for optimizing self regulation, and activate receptors through deep touch and pressure in a clinical practicum situation.

The IPET NeuroStructural Integration Program is part of the larger MRNI Method. The program focuses on:

1. Motor development assessment with exams with course instructor

2. Interpreting the reflex pattern assessment with required demonstration of the specific steps the integration exercises.

3. Demonstration of the specific techniques to release protective responses (e.g., Tendon Guard) at a good to excellent rating.
