C-725 Advanced Spinal Manipulation = 56 hours
This course will utilize case-based instruction to develop advanced evidence-informed spinal manipulation/thrust skills within a comprehensive and contemporary manual physical therapy approach to specific health condition scripts of the lumbar spine, thoraco-lumbar junction, and pelvic girdle regions. Complex, multi-region patient/client impairments of the neuromusculo-skeletal system will be analyzed in an instructor-specific methodology, based on the various models available for regional and segmental motion and function, load transfer and control impairment (relative increase or decrease in mobility and control), including original, and novel, thoughts, and theory. Management will focus on a multi-faceted approach integrating the functional needs of and in collaboration with the patient/client. Total management integrates neurophysiological and biomechanical-based manipulation techniques, integration of pain and health sciences, neuromuscular re-education, sensorimotor integration, adjunct interventions and individualized skilled prescription of therapeutic activities and exercise.
Focus of course: To facilitate an independent course, but also retain the concepts of regional inter-dependence, the faculty will primarily focus on the following regions in this class.
UQ – Advanced assessment and focused spinal manipulation within an integrated manual physical therapy approach to low risk and to complex, moderate risk impairments of the thoraco-lumbar junction (T9-L2), lumbar spine, pelvic girdle, and sacro-iliac joints (SIJ).
LQ – Advanced assessment and focused spinal manipulation within an integrated manual physical therapy approach to low risk and to complex, moderate risk impairments of the upper, middle, lower cervical spine, cervico-thoracic junction, thoracic spine and ribs (1-9)
