Introduction to the Synergy Way(C240)
with Mindy Oldham
CE Credits: 7 Hours
Cost: $265.00 ($310 if registering within 7 days of class)
Content: The Synergy Way is designed to help us understand how we perceive and respond dynamically to our environments and how those perceptions and responses manifest in our bodies. Drawing deeply on both theory and practical application, we use the Synergy Way as a method to help clients build awareness of their body-felt experiences and, using that awareness, facilitate the healing process.
Topics to be covered include:
- Review of current neuroscience research and its application to body work, including brain anatomy, the role of the vagal nerve and how our soft tissue responses parallel those of our central nervous system
- The bodies physiological adaptive response to injury and trauma, Discussion of the parallels between the physiological, mental and emotional healing processes
- How to use this information to help use our bodies as a guide
- The importance of mindset shifts (for both practitioner and clients) in working with the body
This class is designed for bodyworkers, counselors, trainers and anyone who works with clients in a manner that includes engagement and connection to body felt awareness. Clients who have a history of injury, trauma or difficulty having body awareness can benefit from using this framework to begin to approach their bodies. At this time, continuing education credit is available for Tennessee LMT’s only; 7 hours.
Advisory: I recommend that practitioners have strong personal support systems in place when attending this class as the topics can resonate deeply with an individual’s personal experience and history, including experiences of injury and trauma. I suggest you intentionally keep evening commitments to those that provide a sense of safety, comfort and restoration. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Mindy Oldham (615-957-7129).
This class will include lecture, self-reflection and group exercises. Please wear comfortable clothes to participate in the exercises. No perfumes or scented products or jeans.

Synergy Way - Level 1(C241)
with Mindy Oldham
PREREQUISITE: C240 - Introduction to the Synergy Way
Synergy Way-Level 1: Understanding the Physiology of Perception and Holistic Care
CE Credits: 21 Hours - This is a 3 day course meeting 9:00 am - 5:00 pm each day.
Cost: $535 ($580 if registering within 7 days of class)
This class provides an overview of anatomy, physiology and neuroscience of how our bodies process sensory information. Understanding the way our bodies respond to this processing is central to working safely and collaboratively with clients in a holistic manner. Because our bodies are programmed to survive, the body can put a container around the injury, whether consciously or unconsciously, in order to function on a daily basis. These containers often present themselves as tension or holding patterns. We will address how, as practitioners, to work with clients to facilitate the healing process using the The Synergy Way which honors the body, mind, and spirit while remaining within our scope of practice.
Advisory: I recommend that practitioners have strong personal support systems in place when attending this class as the topics can resonate deeply with an individual’s personal experience and history, including experiences of injury and trauma.
