Peripheral nerve impingement syndromes are often misdiagnosed and thought to be treatable only through surgery. Electro-acupuncture is a far less invasive alternative therapy capable of addressing myofascial hypertonicity common in entrapments syndromes as well as treating nerve trunks and branches directly to de-irritate sensory nerve and/or de-inhibit motor nerves. Poney will explain the differential diagnosis, assessment and electro-acupuncture treatment protocols for 16 different types of entrapment syndromes. This is a hands-on practical workshop that teach you how to target precise muscles and nerves.
