Primary RTP® Course (Level 1)

 3 modules x 2 days each:

Upper Extremities Module 1; Lower Extremities Module 2; Spine, Thorax, Head & Neck Module 3

 Course Description

·        Theory (Explanation of Trigenics Theory and its application): 5 hours.

Theoretical science of Trigenics^® followed by methodology of how to specifically apply the treatment procedures. Participants will learn applications of functional neurology through overload of sensorimotor movement regulation using principles of amplitude summation, convergence projection, corticoneural reorganization and neuroplasticity.

·        Practical (Hands­-on): 23 hours. Neurokinetic testing procedures are taught using the principles of orthopedic muscle testing for inhibition or over-facilitation. Related functional anatomy, neurological innervation, aberrant movement patterns and clinical overviews are discussed.

Attendees will learn how to combine the 3 components of Trigenics^®, resisted exercise movement, distortional stimulation of mechanoreceptors and biofeedback breathing. Specific protocols for treatment of individual muscles are demonstrated, practiced and integrated.

 Also taught are Trigenics procedures using static and vibrational instrumentation are also demonstrated along with how and when to use Trigenics myoneural taping.

Certified Primary Trigenics Instructor (C.P.T.I.) (Level 3)

200 hours

Requirements to attain a CPTI and/or FTIFN designation

The Certified Primary Trigenics Instructor (CPTI, aka. Instructor level 1) program and Fellow of the Trigenics Institute of Functional Neurology (FTIFN, aka. Instructor level 2) programs are offered to Trigenists who have demonstrated outstanding interest, understanding and competency in Trigenics.

 About the Program

The CPTI program consists of an additional 100 hours (50 hours in-class + 50 hours distance learning), which builds upon the previous 100 hour R.T.P program.

Objectives of the Program

·        Increase understanding and expertise level in Trigenics Myoneural procedures to treat neuromusculoskeletal injuries and sensorimotor dysfunction.

·        Develop ability to tutor and demonstrate Trigenics to others

Requirements

50 hour internship

·        Candidate must be present and assist in instructing all modules of 2 full R.T.P. programs. (Including tutoring and examination)

·        Responsible for instructing at least 10 protocols of the procedures,

  50 hour extracurricular assignments

·        Submit an article on Trigenics, which is accepted for publication by a public or professional magazine/newspaper.

·        Complete 2 case studies using guidelines set by TIMM.

·        Successful passing of a closed-book written theory examination.

·        Successful completion of an advanced course and passing of advanced level practical procedures examinations.

·        CPTI candidates must also organize a Trigenics demonstration for at least 6 peers whereby they provide information and visual demonstration.  Participants must sign in with name and contact information and the CPTI candidate is required to send the Institute the sign in sheet and a video of the presentation.

 On completion of CPTI:

·        In-depth knowledge of neuromuscular functional anatomy and applied functional neurology as well as theoretical principles of Trigenics

·         Proficient in the process of writing articles and submitting for publication

·        Advanced proficiency in all standard Trigenics procedures

·        Proficient in muscle strength and length testing for neurokinetic dysfunction

·        Possess good instructors skills to teach Trigenics to others

·        Possess an in-depth understanding on treatment of musculoskeletal injuries and sport injuries.

·        Eligible to continue to instructor level 2, Fellowship program.

Fellow of the Trigenics Institute of FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGY (FTIFN) (Level 4)

300 hours 

Only doctors or physiotherapists are eligible to attain FTIFN status to become a Trigenics teacher. Teachers may teach and/or instruct at a Trigenics course or hold their own courses in Trigenics under license of the Trigenics Institute. To become a teacher, R.T.P. graduates must have first completed the level II, 200 hour, C.P.T.I program and then complete the level III, 100 hour, FTIFN program. 

This designation requires completion of the C.P.T.I program and another 100 hours of additional training followed by a written exam and teaching evaluation. Forty hours of training is practical work preparing, instructing and teaching at a specified portion of the Trigenics course and sixty hours is dedicated to a completing and publishing a research study on Trigenics in a professional scientific journal/publication. On-file case study compilations, pilot studies or thesis material for data in the study may be used.   

A choice of research topics will be supplied by the Trigenics Institute or by outside institutions that wish to incorporate them with their own studies relating to Trigenics Functional Neurology.   
During 2 courses, candidates:

·        Must attend all lectures

·        Take a more active role in teaching the procedures with responsibility to teach at least 50% of the courses.  (Procedures to be taught are delineated prior to the course.)

·        Will be an examiner for the practical examination

·        Tutoring an advanced course.

 Students who successfully complete their internship and written exam become a Fellow of the Trigenics Institute of Functional Neurology and may work as an instructor or teacher of Trigenics. Candidates will be provided with updated manuals.

·        FTIFN candidates must also organize a Trigenics demonstration at a healthcare institute, association or society for at least 10 peers whereby they provide information and visual demonstration.  Participants must sign in with name and contact information and the CPTI candidate is required to send the Institute the sign in sheet and a video of the presentation.

 On completion of the FTIFN:

·        The FTIFN would be trained on how to summit/write professional research papers to scientific journal paper and magazine

·         Possess an in-depth understanding on treatment of neuromuscular injuries and sports injuries as well as performance enhancement protocols.

·        Learn and understand the process of organizing a professional seminar

·        Possess increased teaching skills

·        Good understanding and master the skill of neurokinetic examination and treatment.

·        Qualified to teach and set-up their own Trigenics seminar (sport seminar etc) under the Trigenics Institute
