Treatment of Pelvis & Lumbar Spine 2: The Integrated Pelvis- 16-17 Nov 2019

The Integrated Pelvis: Treatment of Pelvis & Lumbar Spine Level 2 Course

A Functional approach to assessment, treatment & rehab for Lumbo-Pelvic Stability

How do you decide if the pelvis is the primary driver of altered function vs the thoracic rib complex or cranium?

When the pelvis is the primary driver, what treatments will be most effective, in what order to restore function?

This 2 day course builds on the articular and Muscle Energy Techniques for the Pelvis & lumbar taught in Level 1 course and expands into whole body assessment to determine the primary source of impairment. You will then learn how & when to manipulate the SIJ, vs how/when to integrate myo-fascial releases, neural and dural techniques into treatment. This is followed by a discussion into the effects of joint dysfunction on muscular activation and motor control. A specific program for rehabilitation of core stability and graded retraining of optimal lumbo-pelvic stabilisation is presented.

Course Aims:

• Review anatomy and biomechanics of the pelvis and lumbar spine and the definitions of joint stability and functional load transfer through the lumbo-pelvic region (pre-course webinar)
• Apply a biomechanical model in order to define dysfunction in the lumbo-pelvic region
• Present a biomechanical framework as a basis for assessment & differential diagnosis of regions of the body that may be triggering altered pelvic function, vs how to determine when the pelvis or hip are the primary source of impairment.
• Consider how to assess the effect of altered pelvic muscle activation on the hip joint
• Provide practical sessions during which muscle energy and articular techniques for specific Musculo-skeletal dysfunctions of the lumbar spine, pubic symphysis and sacroiliac joints are taught.
• Discuss the application of specific manipulation techniques for the sacroiliac joint, with practical application
• Discuss and apply assessment techniques to diagnose true instability of the Pubic symphysis and SIJ in comparison to functional insufficiency of pelvic stability
• Discuss and practice Integrating myo-fascial techniques, neural and dural techniques into patient management
• Practical application of a specific exercise program for retraining lumbo-pelvic stability
