1-Day Seminar at Dragon Rises College
Introduction to Anatomy, Palpation, & Trigger Point Needling
Build the palpation and needling skills that drive real results with musculoskeletal and pain patients.

Pre-Requisite Videos
Top 5 Skills for Orthopedic Needling – This video includes lifetime access and is added to your account when you register.
To access, go to My Account → Click Here to View Your On-Demand Courses.

Course Description
This class introduces a critically important topic that is often overlooked—yet is the top reason practitioners struggle to get results with musculoskeletal and pain patients:
palpation and needling skills.
Many assume they already know how to needle, but after a decade in continuing education, we consistently see that poor palpation and needling technique is the #1 barrier to results, in both new and highly experienced practitioners.
We built this class to change that.
In this class, practitioners will learn how to palpate and needle fascia, muscle, trigger bands, and trigger points, with an emphasis on feeling the tissue, understanding the anatomy, and achieving the local twitch response (LTR).
Common trigger points will be introduced, and the class will be majority hands-on.
Included pre-requisite videos will prepare attendees so they can get the most out of the live training.

The pelvic floor is one of the most important yet least understood regions of the body. Too often, it is overlooked in training programs and left out of treatment strategies—despite its central role in core stability, urogenital and sexual health, and more. This presentation will shine light on the pelvic floor by blending lecture and live demonstration to demystify this complex area and show how approachable this area is. We’ll review the anatomy of the pelvis, common conditions seen in pelvic floor disorders, and special considerations when treating pelvic floor patients. There will also be demos of locating, palpating, and needling structures in the pelvis and pelvic floor. This will be a truly eye-opening experience!

About Jamie Hampton, DAOM, L.Ac.
Dr. Jamie Hampton is a doctoral graduate of The American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the oldest TCM school in the US. She has worked in leading San Francisco Bay Area hospitals for the last 18 years with an emphasis on true integration and collaboration within fast paced clinical settings including the ICU. While she was an adjunct professor through University of California, San Francisco she also had the privilege of teaching grand rounds to medical students. This experience blossomed into a faculty position at the Acupuncture and Integrative Medical College in Berkeley, CA where she taught advanced needling technique, gynecology and advanced formula writing. This solidified her love of teaching and connecting with her students, conveying the power of TCM and all its abilities. Jamie was also co-founder of Golden Leaf Acupuncture in Berkeley, CA which was University California Berkeley’s leading provider for students as well as faculty and staff.
Having discovered a total lack of treatment options for pelvic floor pain and urogenital disorders, Dr. Hampton made it her mission to specialize in helping these patients using Acupuncture and Dry Needling. She has over 15 years of experience specializing in treating the pelvic floor. Currently Jamie practices in Berkeley, CA specializing in pelvic floor disorders and complex orthopedic cases.

⚠️ Pre-Requisite Required: You must have taken a pelvic floor needling seminar to be eligible to attend this seminar

Dates: April 11th–12th
Location: Mesa, AZ
Venue: Crossfit Shokunin
Investment: $1295.00
Instructors: James Werner, DC, M.Sc. (Sports Med), CSCS & Jamie Hampton, DAOM, L.Ac.

Approved for 13.5 California CEUs, Category 1, CEP#1721

Course Description
Pelvic floor dysfunction is one of the most overlooked contributors to pain, impaired performance, and incomplete recovery in athletes. High-impact loading, heavy lifting, rapid cutting mechanics, cycling posture, and sport-specific movement strategies can all overload the pelvic floor, causing symptoms such as urinary leakage, urgency, pelvic pain, groin pain, hip dysfunction, and reduced power output.
This groundbreaking 2-day seminar brings together two experts at the top of their fields to deliver the most comprehensive, sports-specific pelvic floor training available.
Dr. Jamie Hampton, DAOM, L.Ac. leads participants through detailed anatomy, pathology, symptom reproduction, pelvic floor screening, and dry needling techniques tailored for active populations. Her extensive clinical experience brings nuance and specialized insight into treating pelvic floor disorders.
Dr. James Werner, DC, M.Sc. (Sports Med), CSCS, Director of Rehabilitation at Tread Athletics, teaches how pelvic floor dysfunction presents in sport, alters movement mechanics, and impacts performance. He demonstrates how hip, core, and lumbopelvic dysfunction integrate with pelvic floor disorders and how to correct movement patterns to prevent recurrence.
Participants will first complete prerequisite video lectures covering pelvic floor anatomy, epidemiology of pelvic floor dysfunction in athletes, sport-specific loading patterns, and movement-based symptom reproduction. The in-person seminar is highly hands-on and taught in a CrossFit gym environment to train clinicians in assessment, movement analysis, pelvic floor screening, and dry needling techniques.
This course bridges the gap between pelvic floor therapy, orthopedic sports medicine, and performance rehabilitation, giving clinicians the tools to recognize, assess, and treat pelvic floor disorders in athletes of all levels.
*Participants will needle each other during the lab portions.

Prerequisite Content
Before the in-person seminar, participants will receive pre-seminar slides covering important pelvic floor anatomy and function in athletes, epidemiology of pelvic floor dysfunction in athletes, sport-specific loading patterns, and movement-based symptom reproduction.

Course Objectives
By the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:

Identify common pelvic floor disorders in athletes and sport-specific mechanisms of injury.
Analyze hip, core, glute, and lumbopelvic biomechanics contributing to pelvic floor dysfunction.
Apply dry needling techniques to pelvic floor and adjacent structures with safety and precision.
Integrate pelvic floor treatment with rehabilitation strategies.
Develop individualized treatment plans using needling, rehab exercises, and movement retraining.
Understand treatment planning, expected outcomes, and supportive care strategies.

Course Description
This class introduces Trigger Point Needling, but with critically important skills that are often overlooked – palpation and needling skills.
In fact, these are the number 1 reason practitioners fail to get the results they should when treating MSK patients.
While many assume they already know how to needle, after a decade in continuing education we consistently see that poor palpation and needling technique is the #1 barrier to results, in both new and highly experienced practitioners. The good news is, we built this class to remedy that.
In this class, practitioners will learn how to palpate and needle fascia, muscle, trigger bands, and trigger points, with an emphasis on feeling the tissue, understanding the anatomy, and achieving the local twitch response (LTR). Common trigger points will be introduced, and the class will include a lot of hands-on practice.
In addition to the class, the Included pre-requisite vide will prepare attendees so they get even more out of the in-person training.

Course Objectives

Differentiate fascial, muscular, and trigger band tissue layers through palpation, demonstrating the ability to assess depth, tissue quality, and resistance prior to needle insertion.

Accurately locate and palpate common trigger points and trigger bands in the lower extremity, hip, low back, shoulder, neck, and head using flat palpation, pincer grip, and depth-based palpation techniques.

Demonstrate safe and effective needling techniques for trigger points, including appropriate needle depth, redirection, and palpation-with-needling strategies to engage target tissue and elicit the local twitch response (LTR) when clinically appropriate.

Integrate refined palpation and needling skills into hands-on clinical practice, applying improved tissue awareness and anatomical understanding to enhance precision, safety, and treatment results in musculoskeletal patients.

Translating TCM Through Modern Physiology
6-Hour Continuing Education Seminar with Dr. Darlene Easton

Event Details
Date: Sunday May 31st
Venue: Dragon Rises College, Bradenton Florida
Venue Address: 6815 14th St W, Bradenton, FL 34207

Course Description
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) describes human physiology using a symbolic and functional language that developed thousands of years before modern biochemical science. Contemporary research in metabolic physiology, microbiome science, endocrinology, and immunology now provides deeper insight into the biological processes underlying many classical Chinese medicine concepts. This course explores how foundational TCM ideas including Qi, Blood, Body Fluids, Essence (Jing), and the transforming functions of the Middle Jiao can be interpreted through modern digestive physiology, microbiome ecology, metabolic signaling, and immune regulation.
A central component of the course demonstrates how biomedical disease mechanisms such as insulin resistance, inflammation, gut barrier dysfunction, and microbiome disruption can be translated into the functional language of traditional Chinese medicine diagnostic patterns.
Practitioners will better understand and be able to communicate to their patients the science of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This instills confidence in the practitioner and their treatment plan.
This class is offered in-person or live-streamed.
Please note: Recording only option available, but does not include CEUs. You can still register if you are unable to attend live and will get the recording and handout.

Included With Registration
The Missing Link: Systems Mapping & Integration Model™
A comprehensive clinician resource for in-clinic assessment, systems analysis, and pattern integration — yours to keep and use in practice.

Signature 8-System Clinical Intake Tool
TCM pattern correlations mapped to modern disease mechanisms
Scoring guides for clinical decision-making
Designed for immediate use with patients

Course Learning Objectives

Explain parallels between traditional Chinese medicine concepts and modern physiological processes.
Describe the roles of Qi, Blood, Body Fluids, and Essence from both classical and biomedical perspectives.
Explain the physiological function of the Middle Jiao in digestion, nutrient signaling, and metabolic regulation.
Identify relationships between Spleen, Stomach, Liver, Small Intestine, and Large Intestine within digestive and metabolic physiology.
Describe the roles of the small intestine, pancreas, microbiome, and liver in immune and metabolic regulation.
Explain mechanisms involved in insulin resistance, inflammation, immune dysregulation, and mitochondrial dysfunction.
Relate modern chronic diseases to TCM patterns such as Dampness, Phlegm, Qi Stagnation, Heat, and Blood Stasis.
Discuss immune-related gastrointestinal disorders including celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and IBS-D.
Evaluate limitations of conventional medical approaches to chronic disease management.

Course Description

This 3-day, 20-hour seminar is designed to develop the knowledge and hands-on skills necessary to safely, effectively, and confidently implement dry needling for the treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction of the upper and lower body.
This class will build on the practitioner’s existing needling skills, providing further instruction in palpation and advanced needling techniques to increase patient outcomes, increase safety and confidence, and reduce negative side-effects of dry needling.
The course emphasizes manual palpation to accurately identify target tissues and needling skills that improve the practitioner’s treatment outcomes.
A strong focus is placed on safety, including anatomical considerations, identification of contraindications, and risk management—particularly in anatomically sensitive and high-risk regions.
The in-person portion of the seminar prioritizes hands-on skill development, with a structured progression of lecture, demonstration, and supervised lab practice.

Learning Objectives

Demonstrate safe needle placement techniques, including in anatomically sensitive and high-risk regions.
Palpate, differentiate, and accurately target musculoskeletal tissues for dry needling intervention.
Apply appropriate treatment dosing parameters to minimize post-treatment soreness and optimize patient outcomes.
Identify and analyze risk factors and anatomical considerations associated with dry needling in high-risk regions.
Demonstrate appropriate patient communication, informed consent, and safety procedures related to dry needling interventions.

Course Format

Course Format: Lecture, demonstration, and supervised hands-on lab training.
Instructional methods include lecture, demonstration, and supervised hands-on lab practice. Participant competency is supported through ongoing instructor feedback during lab sessions.

Course Description

This 3-day, 20-hour seminar is designed to develop the knowledge and hands-on skills necessary to safely, effectively, and confidently implement dry needling for the treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction of the upper and lower body.
This class will build on the practitioner’s existing needling skills, providing further instruction in palpation and advanced needling techniques to increase patient outcomes, increase safety and confidence, and reduce negative side-effects of dry needling.
The course emphasizes manual palpation to accurately identify target tissues and needling skills that improve the practitioner’s treatment outcomes.
A strong focus is placed on safety, including anatomical considerations, identification of contraindications, and risk management—particularly in anatomically sensitive and high-risk regions.
The in-person portion of the seminar prioritizes hands-on skill development, with a structured progression of lecture, demonstration, and supervised lab practice.

Learning Objectives

Identify indications and contraindications for dry needling in patients with musculoskeletal dysfunction.
Demonstrate safe needle placement techniques, including in anatomically sensitive and high-risk regions.
Palpate, differentiate, and accurately target musculoskeletal tissues for dry needling intervention.
Apply appropriate treatment dosing parameters to minimize post-treatment soreness and optimize patient outcomes.
Identify and analyze risk factors and anatomical considerations associated with dry needling in high-risk regions.
Demonstrate appropriate patient communication, informed consent, and safety procedures related to dry needling interventions.

Course Format

Format: Lecture, demonstration, and supervised hands-on lab training.
Instructional methods include lecture, demonstration, and supervised hands-on lab practice. Participant competency is supported through ongoing instructor feedback during lab sessions.
Each lecture and demo section includes safety, palpation, and proper needling.
Each lab section includes supervised practice.

Course Description
This advanced clinical skills seminar is designed for practitioners looking to learn new skills in electroacupuncture to improve their clinical results treating a variety of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction, particularly for athletes and sports injuries.
This program introduces a mixed-frequency electroacupuncture framework integrating low, medium, and high-frequency stimulation within a single treatment paradigm to simultaneously target pain modulation, neuromuscular activation, tissue desensitization, and functional recovery.
The curriculum is grounded in electroacupuncture literature demonstrating frequency-dependent neurophysiological effects, including differential activation of endogenous opioid systems and neuromuscular pathways. Participants will extend these principles into a clinically reasoned mixed-frequency model tailored to athletic populations.

Course Learning Objectives

Develop a comprehensive understanding of the neurophysiological mechanisms of acupuncture and electro-acupuncture.
Differentiate low-, medium-, and high-frequency stimulation and their physiological effects.
Apply mixed-frequency electro-needling strategies across musculoskeletal conditions.
Integrate anatomical, neurological, and tissue-healing principles into treatment planning.
Enhance return-to-play outcomes through targeted neuromodulation.
Build advanced clinical reasoning based on tissue stage and innervation patterns.
