Spinal Synergy Physiotherapy
Course Information
Who will benefit most from attending this course?
This course is of benefit to physiotherapists who may be unfamiliar with the SIJ or the pelvis as a source of lumbo-pelvic dysfunction but also for physiotherapists who would like a deeper understanding of the SIJ and how to further their clinical skills. The course will begin with the basics of anatomy and biomechanics but move beyond the fundamentals by presenting a clear and concise approach to identifying and addressing SIJ specific dysfunction.
What is the overall aim of this particular course?
The aim of a small group learning environment is to provide physiotherapists with the opportunity to grasp the fundamentals and improve your understanding of the pelvis. During this course you will have the opportunity to enhance both your clinical assessment skills and acquire the practical treatment techniques needed to treating pelvic and SIJ related problems.
Prerequisites
Participants should have at least 2years of clinical musculoskeletal experience ideally in treating patients with a wide range of lower back, buttock or hip presentations. A basic knowledge of the regional anatomy should be reviewed prior to the course and while some knowledge of Muscle Energy Technique (MET) and myofascial releases would be helpful this is your opportunity to enhance your clinical skills applying these treatment techniques.
