About

August 1 -3, 2025, (class times may vary)

The NVR curriculum integrates techniques, perspectives, and practices from structural integration, osteopathy, and clinical massage. In Part 1, our focus is on improving balance, mobility, and stability within the upper body, including head, neck, shoulder girdle, rib cage, and lungs.

We will work gently and precisely with the vascular system to normalize tone in hypertonic muscles that are shortening the myofascial tracks, distorting posture, and limiting movement.

We will work with restrictions of the cervical plexus, brachial plexus, intercostal nerves, accessory nerve, vagus nerve, phrenic nerve, and dura to reduce pain and improve structural and functional balance.
