Nerve Mobilization for Structural Integrators with Kirstin Schumaker

Kirstin is an excellent teacher and a friend. She is offering classes around the globe and is worth checking out!

My initial study of neural manipulation was with Christoph Sommer (2006, 2009) and
Don Hazen (2007-2008). I also assisted Jon Martine with his neural mobilization
classes (2009-2010), when he came through my home town. (Of these three
teachers, Jon’s style of working with the peripheral nerves is closest to what I do in
my own practice.) More recently (2011-2012), I have studied intensively with Jeffrey
Burch. With Jeff I have primarily studied visceral manipulation and osteopathic
methods, but I’ve also picked up some of his tricks for working with nerves and
arteries. (Yes, the artery network is a whole new frontier! Similar to, yet different
from, working with the neural net.)


My structural integration practice is now based on what I am calling “neurally
informed” myofascial work. I can no longer not pay attention to nerves (and arteries)
as I work with the myofascia. This advanced SI work is amazingly efficient, and it is
very fun to teach.
