On November 1, 2019, 8 therapists attended the foundation course for Facial Neuromuscular Retraining (FNMR). There were therapists from Calgary, Edmonton, and Red Deer, Alberta; Vancouver, BC: Burlington, Ontario and Houston, Texas.
On November 2 and 3 five therapists carried on to complete the practical component of the course. Pauline Dueck, Heather Brickwell and Kristin Bell, all experienced facial therapists working in Calgary, had arranged a good group of patients for us to assess, educate and treat. Kristin Bell assisted in this course by taking one of the groups on the week-end. She was a great addition to the course.
