继续教育讲座简报

在2015年7月12日的继续教育讲座中，ATCMA邀请到华人一手《软组织损伤徒手疗法》的创始人——李建民医生在Langara College讲授并现场演示了软组织损伤徒手疗法。这次讲座是李建民医生自7月8日开始在温哥华授课的最后一讲，将近50名会员到场听课观摩。

In the workshop on July 12, ATCMA invited Dr. Jianmin Li, the founder of the “Manual Therapy Approach in Treating Soft Tissue Injuries”, to teach and demonstrate this therapy approach at Langara College. This workshop was the last session of Dr. Li’s lecture tour in Vancouver since July 8. There were  almost 50 members attended the lecture.

据报道，超过1/4的加拿大居民患有各种痛证，其中很多人得不到西医体系的有效帮助，或者仅靠应用止痛药控制疼痛，但中医在治疗痛证方面有着独到的优势。华人一手《软组织损伤徒手疗法》正是以治疗全身肌肉疼痛为主，包括脊椎和四肢关节疼痛，并治疗由肌痛症引起的各种内科相关症状。

According to the report, over 1/4 of  Canadian suffer all types of pain, among them many could not get effective cure from western medicine system or they simply rely on the pain killer to alleviate the pain. TCM has its unique advantage in treating pain syndrome. The Manual Therapy Approach mainly focus on the cure on the muscle pain of all over the body, including the pain in the joints of the spine and extremities, as well as the internal medicine related symptoms cause by muscle pain.

        我们知道，在推拿对伤筋的治疗中，第一条就是舒筋通络，其主要的两个环节就是缓解疼痛和肌紧张。李建民医生的疗法，正是紧紧把握住了这两点，并充分发挥了西医局部解剖的优势，将不同的肌肉、韧带损伤引起的疼痛仔细区分，最终获得明确细化的定位诊断，然后再加以定位的手法治疗。在治疗过程中，李建民医生将语言诱导与手法调理相结合，通过主动和被动的放松肌肉，以达到快速缓解疼痛的目的。治疗后，指导患者根据具体的病损肌肉组织进行针对性锻炼，以巩固疗效，防治复发。

As we know, the first principle in treating the soft tissue injuries is  relaxing the tendons and activating meridians, the two main aspects are alleviating the pain and releasing muscle tension. Dr. Li’s therapy starts from these two aspects, makes fully use of local anatomy of Western Medicine, carefully differentiates pain cause by injury of muscle or ligament, makes specific location diagnosis and applies Manual Therapy. During the treatment,  Dr. Li combines the instructive language and manual therapy to relax the muscle actively and passively in order to release the pain. After the treatment, patients will do some specific exercise with instructions on the infected muscle to consolidate the effect and prevent the recurrence.

在讲座中，李建民医生以腰骶椎软组织病变为主，详细介绍了查体诊断的要点，并邀请有相关痛证的会员配合进行实例操作，演示诊断治疗过程。多名参与实例操作的会员经治疗后症状均明显减轻。一会员腰痛多年，不能仰卧而眠，仰卧时腰部前突悬空。李医生诊断后现场施以手法，当看到该学员的腰部渐渐放平落地时，现场响起了热烈的掌声。在六个小时的讲座中，现场始终洋溢着紧张热烈的气氛。讲做结束后，众多到场会员都感觉意犹未尽，许多人表示大开眼界，拓宽了思路，学到了新的技巧。

During the workshop, Dr. Li took the soft tissue lesion of lumber sacral vertebra as an example, introduced the essential of diagnosis. He invited members who have the pain to cooperate, demonstrated the whole procedure of the treatment. Symptoms of the members who took part in the demonstration treatment were significantly reduced. One of our member suffered lower back pain for many years, could not lie on his back for sleep. When he lied on his back, his waist could not touch the table. At the scene, after manual therapy applied by Dr. Li, this member could relax his back and lie it on the table, the effectiveness won warm applause. The whole 6 hours’ workshop was always filled with a warm atmosphere. Many members said that this workshop is fascinating and broadening their treatment thought, they learned new techniques from Dr. Li.
