Answer: It is not about time, it is about experience. The Level 2 course refines and builds on your skills. Experience is key! You should feel like you have solidified your skills learned in Intraoral TMJ with Precision Level 1. We recommend having enough treatment and assessment practice between Level 1 that will benefit your Level 2 learning experience. 10 treatments are ideal; however, is not required. Having the opportunity to practice more will build on your Level 2 success.
I just took a Kinetic Massage of the Neck seminar with Linda Hoppe at the FSMTA convention in Florida. It was one of the best learning experiences I ever had. The anatomical explanations were wonderful and gave you the confidence and knowledge to work safely with your clients. The hands-on part of the class was great as well and you left with some fantastic new techniques for your “tool box” (as I like to call it) to treat neck and upper back issues in a new, different and very effective way. I can highly recommend this class. Your clients will love their treatments. Thank you, Linda!
