  1. Introduction to the Pelvis – An Integrated Approach for Restoring Function, Relieving Pain
  2. The Advanced Pelvis – Integrating the Lumbar Spine & Hip

(The Lumbopelvic-hip Complex – An Integrated Approach is a mergence of these two previous courses)

  3. The Advanced Thorax – Integrating the Shoulder Girdle and the Lower Neck

The description below gives you an overview of the theory underlying the model and an overview of the aim of these series of courses. The courses have been combined so people go 'on a journey' with the material rather than just getting a small taste with the previous 2 day format. Diane and LJ are keen for a select group of people to work with the material over a year so they can return with questions and experiences on which they can build. Please see the programme for a more detailed description.

Aim of the series

Research in the last decade has greatly increased our understanding of muscle and joint function, leading to the development of multi-modal, evidence-based approaches such as The Integrated Model of Function (Lee/Vleeming).  This model highlights the interplay of form closure, force closure, motor control, and emotional components in restoring optimal function and requires the clinician to be skilled in manual therapy (techniques involving touch), exercise instruction (both for facilitation of optimal muscle patterning and then progressions) and education (pain neurophysiology) in order to empower their clients with the tools necessary for recovery. In addition, there have been recent advances in the use of real-time ultrasound imaging for both assessment of core muscle function and biofeedback during re-education as well as dry needling (IMS) techniques for myofascial release.  All of this and more will be covered and integrated into this series of courses as it is clinically applied to the thorax, shoulder girdle, lower neck, lumbar spine, pelvis and lower extremity. Please see the programme for a more detailed description.

Who is this course aimed at?

This course is aimed at senior I and II musculoskeletal physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractors.
