Course Overview
Motor entry point locations and needle protocols for over 50 muscles of the neck, shoulder and upper extremity. In addition, the practitioner will see many motor entry points in human tissue that are shown from AcuSport Education's cadaver dissection. Observing the motor nerve entrance into the muscle can help the practitioner enhance their skills and appreciation of needle depth. Muscles not included in this recording are the pectoralis major, rhomboids minor and major and the middle and lower trapezius. These muscles are shown and practiced in the live-seminar SMAC courses under guidance.
Objective
  • The practitioner will observe over 50 muscle motor points of the neck, shoulder and upper extremity.
  • The practitioner will earn current research on motor point locations

    What People Are Saying

    I highly recommend this great course. The information and instructions are clear and detailed, supported by close up videos of demonstrations and cadaver. The best part is the ability to access the course repeatedly at your own pace. It has given me greater confidence.

    Randy C.- United States of America

    A truly unique program unlike anything out there today, the SMAC program takes the licensed acupuncturist to the next level in clinical practice. This program adds depth and understanding to how acupuncture works, and is a must for anyone who wants to refine their technical skills.

    Amanda H.- United States of America

    I LOVE the SMAC program. It's the best integration of Western and Eastern practice in Orthopedic & Sports Medicine learning.

    Yvonne G.- United States of America

    I recommend Mark Callison's Neck, Shoulder and Upper extremity module in the highest of terms for continuing TCM education. His regular repetition of the channels/acupuncture points, discussion of the latest TCM debates based on research, cadaver and life model demonstration were beyond excellent.

    Elizabeth M.- United States of America

    These classes will make you a better practitioner! I can’t say enough about the depth of knowledge that you will receive by taking these courses. I love that we can watch these over and over again to keep learning.

    *CEU/CPD Approvals

    Some accreditation bodies have course approval expirations. If the approval expires, you will see a notice next to the name with a date of expiration: "[Until YYYY/MM/DD]". Please factor this date into your own renewal deadline. If an approval expires, you will be able to request that it is renewed and we will submit it for you within 2 business days. Renewals normally come back to us after 30 days. If your accreditation body is not listed under the "Approved" section, you may find it under the "Pending" section. That means that it is either currently pending approval, or that it is available for you to request: "[Upon Request]". New course approvals usually come back to us after 45 days. We use an automated system within our platform that allows you to make these requests in an easy and convenient way.

If you request a course approval and do not complete it before its new expiration date, you will need to purchase another "CEU/CPD Add-On" to make another request. If the course is ineligible for approval with an accreditation body due to their subject-matter policies, it will be listed as "[Ineligible]", and no requests will be possible for the course.
