COURSES TO BE HELD IN 2010

 


SATURDAY 28th & SUNDAY 29th AUGUST 2010

 

“Manual Therapy With Another Dimension: Thoracic Spine & Ribcage”

This weekend workshop builds upon understanding gained in the one day “Core Principles of OMT” workshop. (Attendance at that workshop is not, however, a prerequisite for participation in this workshop).

Participants at this workshop will gain:

  • An advanced understanding of clinically relevant anatomy of the thoracic spine and ribs.
  • An understanding of thoracic biomechanics (arthrokinematics and osteokinematics).
  • An enhanced understanding of the “whole picture”/ the relation of postural abnormality to thoracic dysfunction.
  • An understanding of coupled spinal movements.

Participants at this workshop will learn:

  • Assessment and mobilisation techniques for thoracic spine and ribs that are clinically logical and consider 3D biomechanics.
  • How to use knowledge of spinal coupled movements to increase specificity of treatment – “spinal looking”.
  • Combined soft tissue/ spinal mobilisation for thoracic spine (unique to the OMT system).

This 2 day workshop will be structured so that participants will leave the course equipped with a selection of clinically powerful techniques to use in their practice.

A workbook will be supplied for participants' future reference.

The course is fully catered.

A participation certificate will be provided.

SATURDAY 20th & SUNDAY 21st NOVEMBER 2010

“Manual Therapy with Another Dimension: Cervical Spine and TMJ”

This weekend workshop builds upon understanding gained in previous workshops: the one day “Core Principles of OMT” workshop, and also “Thoracic Spine & Ribcage”. (Attendance at those workshop is not, however, a prerequisite for participation in this workshop).

Participants at this workshop will gain:

  • An advanced understanding of clinically relevant anatomy of the cervical spine, upper cervical spine and TMJ.
  • An understanding of cervical and upper cervical biomechanics (arthrokinematics and osteokinematics).
  • An understanding of the unique anatomy and biomachanics of the TMJ.
  • An enhanced understanding of the “whole picture”/ the relation of postural abnormality to cervical and TMJ dysfunction.
  • An understanding of coupled spinal movements.

Participants at this workshop will learn:

  • Assessment and mobilisation techniques for thoracic spine and ribs that are clinically logical and consider 3D biomechanics.
  • How to use knowledge of spinal coupled movements to increase specificity of treatment – “spinal looking”.
  • Combined soft tissue/ spinal mobilisation for thoracic spine (unique to the OMT system).
