This course builds a detailed evaluation plan for the lumbopelvic spine. In depth joint biomechanics provide the basis for analyzing movement and determining its relationship to the presenting patient’s health condition and impairments. Specifically, the mobility and stability of the lumbopelvic neuro musculoskeletal system is studied, Assessment techniques for each of these components will be demonstrated, practiced, and applied to various case scenarios.
Secondly, a significant portion of this course will be spent demonstrating, practicing, and applying specific, directional, and focused manual therapy techniques to the lumbopelvic spine.

OVERALL COURSE OBJECTIVES:

• Evaluate and manage the patient/client presenting with lumbo pelvic spine health conditions, utilizing reason-based, individualized examination sequences.
• Develop a detailed, individualized diagnosis/classification and prognosis.
• Formulate an all-source evidence-informed management plan including education, manual therapy, and individually dosed neuromuscular rehabilitation techniques.
• Demonstrate specific, focused, thrust joint manipulation/mobilization techniques for the lumbo pelvic spine.
