Now that the quarter is almost at an end and I've survived (yaya!)I have been really excited about putting it all to good use in the school clinic. Applying what I've learned to the public is awesome and has really made me realize why I came to BCMT in the first place.
My first clinic was on a friend...I got one of my roommates to come in. It went really well but I was so nervous and just couldn't understand why. I knew who I was working on, I've worked on her before...I guess having supervisors around and being on your own for an hour just freaked me out. I got through it and did fairly well though.
My second clinic was "on the public". I worked on this guy who was really big and really tall! Being just 5 feet this was a challenge but I was up for it! I learned to use my forearms to do most of the work and to really get deep into the points. It was hard work but awesome to be able to experience someone new. I have my third clinic (2 in a row) coming up! This will be the last of the clinics for this quarter so I'm hoping to get almost everything that I've learned into the sessions.
I'm always looking for volunteers and people to be my "bodywork dummies" so I look forward to working on the people from home and showing them what I've learned.
Spring break is just a couple of weeks away! I'm looking forward to a break and relaxing for a while before 2nd quarter begins.
