Thomas Myers studied directly with Drs. Ida Rolf, Moshe Feldenkrais, and Buckminster Fuller. He has also studied less extensively with movement teachers Judith Aston, Emilie Conrad, and in the martial arts. His work is influenced by cranial, visceral, and intrinsic movement studies he made with European schools of osteopathy.
An inveterate traveler, Tom has practiced integrative manual therapy for over 30 years in a variety of clinical and cultural settings, including 10 years in London, and traveling practices in Hamburg, Rome, Nairobi, and Sydney, as well as a dozen locales in the US. He is a member of the International Association of Structural Integrators (IASI).
Author of Anatomy Trains (Elsevier 2001) and a set of supporting videos, Tom has also penned over 60 articles for trade magazines and journals on anatomy, soft tissue manipulation, and the social scourge of somatic alienation and loss of reliance on kinesthetic intelligence.
A certified Touch-in-Parenting instructor, Tom retains a strong interest in peri-natal issues relating to movement.
Living on the coast of Maine, Tom directs Kinesis, which conducts professional certification and continuing education courses worldwide. |

Learn advanced techniques and put holistic treatment strategies into practice in this soft-tissue master class. These short soft-tissue classes are often placed at the end of Anatomy Trains or other classes for experienced practitioners to get more detailed and focused hands-on exploration of a particular area or issue. Each day concentrates on a particular area such as the neck, low back, groin, etc. If appropriate, students may bring in models or problem clients for consultation on a new approach.
Neck, Shoulder, and Thorax
The shoulder rests on the thorax and hangs from the neck. Most long-term shoulder dysfunctions need to consider all three elements in the ?cure?. In this course, we combine techniques from the breathing workshop and the arm workshop to take a comprehensive look at how to resolve malalignment of the shoulder complex balanced in our upright posture.
Techniques include:
1. Rib cage tilts and repositioning
2. Scalenes and head-neck positioning
3. Shoulder pivots and the balance between stability and mobility in the shoulder
4. The shoulder ?X? ? the underlying muscles that create shoulder stablity
