Workshops

The Key Approach In Recognizing and Managing Movement Dysfunction Associated with Spine, Pelvis and Hip Pain: Module I – Foundations of control

10-12 September 2010 (opening session Friday evening and two full days at weekend)

Registration/application form

These unique workshops offer a different perspective for effectively managing spinal and lower quadrant pain disorders.

Clinically relevant, stimulating and a very practical learning opportunity, they integrate relevant research with the insights of extensive clinical practice and will address:

  • Analysis of healthy lumbopelvic function – what do we know?
  • The nature of compromised patterns of motor control
  • Identifying and mapping the more common clinical patterns of posturo-movement dysfunction – clinical sub-group classification
  • Examining the predictable relationship between the more common movement impairments, joint and myo-fascial changes and pain disorders
  • Appraisal of current concepts and rationale of commonly prescribed therapeutic exercises: – exploring beyond ‘core stability’ and ‘Pilates’- with implications for screening and injury prevention in the exercise industry in general
  • Practical sessions will integrate manual therapy approaches and the assessment and remediation of changed motor control – how to better prescribe and establish fundamental patterns of physiological control as a basis for building more healthy kinematic movement patterns
