SUMMARY:Manual Therapy for Oromyofunctional Disorders (OMFT)
DESCRIPTION:OMFT Manual Therapy – with a practical focus on the bio psycho social model\nThis two day seminar with Stephen King and Caroline van Looy shows you how to integrate OMFT Manual Therapy effectively into the treatment of oromyofunctional disorders and embed classical exercises within a structured bio psycho social model. You will learn how to apply manual therapy techniques for jaw\, tongue\, swallowing\, breathing and oral habits in a way that fits smoothly into existing treatment frameworks in Germany\, across logopedics\, speech therapy\, physiotherapy\, osteopathy and dentistry – with a clear emphasis on patient centred care and self empowerment. \nThe seminar is also suitable for participants with basic English skills. On the one hand\, there will be someone available to translate or assist with language questions\, and on the other hand\, most techniques will not only be explained theoretically but also demonstrated in practice. \nOMFT Manual Therapy for jaw\, swallow and breathing functions\nIn the seminar you will practise concrete manual techniques for OMFT at key anatomical regions: tongue\, intraoral muscles (pterygoids\, buccinator)\, digastric\, masseter\, transverse processes of the cervical spine and diaphragm. You will learn how to target clinical pictures such as restricted mouth opening\, oro facial pain during chewing\, bruxism\, swallowing disorders\, chronic mouth breathing\, tongue thrust swallowing\, tongue rest and tongue posture problems\, and functional breathing and sleep related breathing patterns – always with an eye on the integrated chain of chewing\, swallowing\, breathing and speaking. \nOMFT Manual Therapy in Stephen King’s bio psycho social model\nA special focus lies in using OMFT Manual Therapy not in isolation\, but within a bio psycho social model\, as described in the E QUATION framework (King & Flock 2022). You will train how to place symptoms in the context of posture\, tension patterns\, body awareness\, stress\, pain coping and daily routines\, and how to link therapy with clear education and information sharing elements. This helps you to design a treatment that in Germany is specifically oriented toward self management\, informed consent and the active participation of clients. \nSpecific target groups and application fields for OMFT Manual Therapy\nThis seminar is specifically designed for professionals who want to apply OMFT Manual Therapy within a bio psycho social model in Germany: \n\nSpeech language therapists and logopedists working with clients who have tongue rest or tongue posture problems\, tongue thrust swallowing\, lisping or articulation difficulties.\nPhysiotherapists\, osteopaths and occupational therapists whose patients present with jaw/TMJ pain\, bruxism\, chronic mouth breathing\, functional breathing disorders or swallowing problems.\nDentists and orthodontic professionals who wish to understand and integrate muscular orofacial dysfunctions and functional oro facial problems into their treatment concepts.\nProfessionals from neurorehabilitation and functional therapy will also benefit when they want to use OMFT Manual Therapy according to Stephen King to integrate orofacial muscular imbalances\, posture\, diaphragm function and breathing into a coherent\, holistic approach.\n\nFrom theory directly into practice – with confidence\nPractice transfer is at the heart of this course: you receive clear manual techniques\, screening elements and exercise sequences that you can immediately apply in your everyday sessions in Germany\, without abandoning your current methods. At the same time\, you will learn how to work with informed consent\, education\, goal setting and self management\, so that you can confidently embed OMFT Manual Therapy within the bio psycho social model into your daily practice. \nInternational experts in OMFT Manual Therapy – practicing in Germany\nStephen King and Caroline van Looy are recognised international experts in OMFT Manual Therapy and oromyofunctional disorders. They combine long standing clinical experience with a clear\, practical teaching style that makes manual techniques based on the bio psycho social concept (E QUATION) accessible and directly applicable – bringing this approach to life for professionals in Germany. Stephen King is internationally recognized for his “pain-free practice” methodology — a paradigm that rejects the outdated notion of “good pain” in therapy. In this approach\, any sensation of pain is considered an indicator of potential threat\, not therapeutic progress. \nYour one time OMFT Manual Therapy training with Stephen King in Germany\nThis seminar is the only date in Germany where you can experience OMFT Manual Therapy with Stephen King and Caroline van Looy in person. You benefit from their international expertise\, their interdisciplinary perspective\, and a programme specifically designed to increase your confidence\, clinical reasoning and the effectiveness of your work with OMFT Manual Therapy in a bio psycho social model. \nAll this is within a new bio-psycho-social framework that ensures your treatment is “patient-centred” based on the EQUATION framework (King and Flock 2022).This course uses various anatomical regions that make sense for oromyofunctional disorders with accompanying applications.
