INTEGRATIVE MYO-RHINO & NRT PRACTITIONER TRAINING

Build advanced clinical skills through an integrated training series covering Myo-Rhino assessment, Nasal Release Technique, primitive reflex integration, airway care, and cranial therapies. Develop practical tools to assess and treat complex patients across the lifespan.


Learning Objectives

  • Demonstrate foundational and advanced Nasal Release Technique (NRT) skills, including appropriate patient screening, assessment, treatment application, contraindications, and integration of NRT into individualized clinical care.
  • Explain the neurological and developmental foundations of primitive reflex integration, including the role of neuroplasticity, cortical maturation, neurological stressors, and reflex re-emergence following injury or other significant physiological stress.
  • Integrate multiple therapeutic approaches including Myo-Rhino assessment, NRT, primitive reflex integration, cranial and lymphatic techniques, craniosacral therapy, and airway-focused care—into a cohesive, whole-system clinical model.

About

THE COMPREHENSIVE PATH TO INTEGRATIVE CLINICAL PRACTICE

This comprehensive training series equips healthcare providers with an integrated framework for assessing and addressing airway, cranial, neurological, oral, and musculoskeletal function across the lifespan. Participants progress from foundational Myo-Rhino assessment and Nasal Release Technique (NRT) training into pediatric and adult primitive reflex integration, developing the clinical knowledge, hands-on skills, and treatment strategies needed to work with increasingly complex patient presentations.

Save $500 when you enroll in the complete series bundle! Registering for each course individually would cost $3,880, but the complete series is available as a bundle, giving you $500 in savings while providing a comprehensive pathway to advance your clinical knowledge.

SERIES HIGHLIGHTS

A progressive training series designed to help providers develop advanced skills in Myo-Rhino assessment, NRT, primitive reflex integration, and whole-system clinical care.

Build a Strong Clinical Foundation

Develop a comprehensive understanding of the Myo-Rhino approach, including assessment of airway function, facial structure, jaw mechanics, breathing, oral posture, and tongue function. Learn how to translate clinical findings into structured treatment strategies and integrate objective measures into your patient evaluation.

Master Nasal Release Technique (NRT)

Learn the assessment, clinical rationale, contraindications, and hands-on application of NRT with Cynthia Stein, PT, M.Ed. Develop practical skills for addressing structural restrictions of the nasopharynx and integrating NRT into a broader approach to airway, cranial, ocular, and neurological care.

Understand Primitive Reflexes Across the Lifespan

Explore how retained or re-emerged primitive reflexes can influence development and function in both pediatric and adult populations. Learn to assess reflex patterns and understand their potential connections to sensory processing, posture, attention, anxiety, pain, vestibular function, oral function, airway health, and neurological recovery.

Advance Toward Integrated Clinical Mastery

Bring the skills from across the series together through advanced Myo-Rhino application, complex case management, treatment planning, and clinical decision-making. Learn to integrate NRT, primitive reflex integration, cranial therapies, airway-focused care, and other techniques into a cohesive approach for patients with complex, multi-system presentations.
