Functional Anatomy & Palpation: Upper Body

Toms River Campus: 2026: March 13 • 9am-6pm

Presented by Nicole Davis, LMT


Head, Neck & Shoulders - 9am-1pm

Designed for therapists who want to deepen clinical accuracy, this course focuses on the functional anatomy of the head, neck, and shoulders. Through anatomical review, guided palpation labs, and range-of-motion assessments, you’ll refine your ability to locate key muscles, identify restrictions, and integrate assessment findings into effective treatment planning. Ideal for addressing chronic tension, headaches, and postural dysfunction.

Shoulder, Arm & Forearm - 2pm-6pm

The second half of the day provides an in-depth look at the functional anatomy of the shoulder, arm, and forearm. You’ll practice palpating major muscle groups, perform ROM assessments for the shoulder and elbow, and learn how to interpret findings to guide treatment decisions. Perfect for therapists working with repetitive strain, occupational stress, or athletic clients.
