Preventative and Recovery
There is no doubt that Dentistry is a very challenging profession. We work sitting down all day, in a confined space in a physically demanding position. Often its an emotionally charged environment and on people who for the most part, would like to be somewhere else. It is a recipe for STRESS!! Most of us have never been taught how to sit well and we often end up either tired, in pain or “crippled” at the end of our day.
This course is an extension to the foundations learnt in Part 1.
Topics include
- Lecture and practical lesson of Daily Program to limber up for work, to unlock Sacro-iliac joint and align body for good posture and work.
- First Aid strategies in case of unexpected pain or tension on the job
- How to integrate good relaxed shoulders, elbows and wrists with excellent core trunk support
- Balancing flexors and extensors of trunk to facilitate and enhance good spiral movement
- How to sit to maximise benefits of using loupes and microscope.
Learning Objectives
- Identify even more deeply your own particular unique patterns of holding tension using Daily Program and in a practical way dismantle them
- Incorporate shoulders and arms with good posture
- Enhancing body awareness to become aware of malalignment before it becomes injurious or painful
