SUMMARY:MODULE II (The Low Back\, Hip & Groin) Assessment & Treatment of Injuries (ATI) (CA)
DESCRIPTION:SMAC Program Class Descriptions\nMODULE II (The Low Back\, Hip and Groin) Assessment & Treatment of Injuries (ATI)\n\nThe practitioner taking this live\, in-person 4-day course will understand that injuries involving the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex must be observed as one complex and not separated in assessment or treatment. Balancing the relationship between the lumbar spine\, the pelvis and the hip will not only help decrease pain in those regions but also affect most low back\, hip and groin injuries.\nMany sport and work-related injuries will be discussed from assessment through treatment. We will examine the mechanical “how and why” injury occurs using postural examination\, orthopedic physical examinations and manual muscle testing to assess the musculoskeletal system. Radiographs\, MRI and ultrasound images will be presented and discussed.\nReferred pain is a common symptom that an acupuncturist will treat. The practitioner will learn to accurately differentiate radicular pain from referred pain and locate the fixed pain site that is causing the pain. With a correct diagnosis of the affected tissue\, the practitioner can then accurately apply successful treatment protocols to the affected tissues and the channels and collaterals (jing luo jingjin) for long-lasting clinical results.\nInnovative treatment protocols will be introduced consisting of advanced needle techniques to the involved tissues.\nThe experience of this workshop will refine the practitioner’s assessment and treatment skills\, expand their knowledge of needle techniques\, and greatly enhance the success rate in treating low back\, hip and groin injuries.\n\nFor more information\, visit these website pages: \n\n\n\nClick here for the SMAC Program HYBRID Class Descriptions\nClick here for the SMAC Program ALL IN-PERSON Class Descriptions\n\n\n\nClass Location/Date/Time\n\nSan Diego\, CA (US) — Marina Village Conference Center\nMay 28-31\, 2026 | 8:30am-5:00pm PST (US) \n\nInstructor\nIan Armstrong\, L.Ac.\, C.SMA \nCEUs\n30 CAB CE & NCCAOM PDA hours pending \nEnrollment Requirements\n\nIn order to register for individual Sports Medicine Acupuncture (SMA) live\, in-person courses\, the licensed practitioner must:\n\nUnderstand and agree to the AcuSport Education Agreement Form (see below)\nProvide proof of having graduated from an ACAOM accredited or equivalent Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncture school with a minimum of 2\,000 hours of acupuncture and TCM training\nBe a licensed or registered acupuncturist and provide proof of active license and malpractice insurance\n\n\n\nEnrollment Process\n\nRead the AcuSport Education Agreement Form and Release of Liability Form (see tabs below) and indicate your agreement on Registration Form\nComplete the Sports Medicine Acupuncture Certification Program Registration Form at the bottom of this page\nUpon submitting your registration below\, you will receive a “Registration Pending” email providing detailed information about how to easily upload required documents to our secure Dropbox folder.

SUMMARY:Assessment & Treatment of the Neck and Shoulder
DESCRIPTION:The practitioner taking this sports medicine acupuncture foundational course will understand that the neck and shoulder are observed as one complex and must not be separated in assessment or treatment. Injury to the neck will often involve shoulder symptoms and conversely\, shoulder pain frequently stems from the cervical spine. Common neck and shoulder injuries that will be discussed include: cervical degeneration\, cervical strain and sprain\, muscle tension headaches\, rotator cuff and bicipital tendinopathy\, as well as common muscle imbalance syndromes that are contributing factors to many other neck and shoulder injuries. In this workshop\, we will examine injuries from a mechanical “how and why” using orthopedic physical evaluations and manual muscle testing to assess the integrity of the musculoskeletal system. \nInnovative treatment protocols will be introduced consisting of needle techniques to the involved motor and acupuncture points to balance the somatic system according to both TCM and western biomedical principles. \nThe experience of this workshop will refine the practitioner’s assessment and treatment skills\, expanding their knowledge of needle techniques and greatly enhancing their success rate in treating neck and shoulder injuries. \nClass Date/Time\nSeptember 19—20\, 2026 \n\nSaturday—9am-6pm MDT\nSunday—9am-4pm MDT\n\nInstructor(s)\nIan Dunsmuir\, R.Ac\, C.SMA \nCEUs\n14 CEU’s-approved by NCCAOMEnrollment Requirements\nTo register for this Sports Medicine Acupuncture (SMA) live\, in-person course\, the attendee must: \n\nUnderstand and agree to the AcuSport Education Agreement Form (see below)\nBe a licensed Acupuncturist and provide proof of: 1-diploma from an ACAOM-accredited or equivalent Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncture school with a minimum of 2\,000 hours of acupuncture and TCM training\, 2-active license\, and 3-active malpractice insurance OR be a current Acupuncture student and provide proof of current matriculation at an ACAOM-accredited or equivalent Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture school\n\nRegistration Information\nUpon submitting your registration for this course\, you will receive a “Registration Pending” email that provides you with detailed information about how to easily upload required documents to our secure Dropbox folder.

There will be four cadaver dissections occurring simultaneously with five participant dissectors per cadaver specimen. Each participant in the group will have the opportunity to palpate\, dissect and needle important structures under the guidance of Brian Lau\, AP\, C.SMA and Joseph Bickle\, L.Ac.\, C.SMA. The opening of each day will begin with a short presentation on the myofascial channel systems\, motor entry points\, target tissues\, nerve pathways\, needle depths and goals of the day’s dissection. Each practitioner dissects a region of the body to its completion in a way that will result in a learning opportunity for every member of the group. \nThe focus of this cadaver lab is to discover anatomical insights\, learn how injuries can occur\, what tissues are involved\, how myofascial tissues connect to one another and to create open forum discussions between dissection groups. Comparative anatomy between specimens is an incredible learning opportunity. Nothing can replace doing dissection first hand\, with your own hands and eyes. This cadaver lab is imperative for the acupuncturist as you will return to your practice with a new vision of your patients that helps with improved treatment outcomes.

SUMMARY:MODULE IV (The Neck\, Shoulder & Upper Extremity) Assessment & Treatment of Injuries (ATI) (CA)
DESCRIPTION:SMAC Program Class Descriptions\nMODULE IV (The Neck\, Shoulder & Upper Extremity) Assessment & Treatment of Injuries (ATI)\nIn this class\, practitioners will learn how many injuries involving the neck\, shoulder\, and upper extremity involve the postural position of the spine\, ribcage\, and the lumbo-pelvic region\, and how balancing the relationship between these anatomical structures will greatly improve your treatment outcomes. You will learn postural assessment\, triple star orthopedic physical examinations & manual muscle testing that will help improve the precision of your diagnosis and treatment. This includes how to properly assess whether the patient’s pain is local\, referred or radicular and coming from the spine\, all which informs different treatment methods.
