CPD opportunities for our Scottish and Southern members
Message from the Chair of STO;
Hi all, this is an ideal opportunity to take advantage of an exclusive STO discount, I fully intend doing this CPD in the next few months, it was recently attended by the England team physio and Premiership physios, so you will be getting upto date current trends in rehab. the following dates are available, please contact Ben directly and mention your STO membership number to get the discount. We are hoping to host a course in Manchester later in the year
11/12th May 2013 London Laboratory Health club. 1A Hall lane. NW4 £250-STO £225
21/22nd of May 2013, Kilmarnock Football Club, Rugby Park, Kilmarnock, KA1 2DQ, Scotland. £300-STO £275Our Cor-kinetic courses for health care professionals are designed to bring cohesion and process to the tasks of functional and dynamic assessment.
When we get up off the table, things change. As we move and interact with the ground and forces our bodies can give us different answers to the ones we may get from more static assessment methods.
Our nervous system may allow us motion in the safety of a lying, passive and static scenario but may not allow us the same motion when we increase the demand in an upright and dynamic situation. As we spend most of our moving lives upright then this has to be a vital component of our assessment procedure.
Previous pain and injury can create protective motor patterns than remain after pain has subsided. These may not present themselves unless we test the ability of the body to move in an authentic situation. We look at mobility and stability as a symbiotic concept that relies on each other to create successful movement. If we lack one or the other then dysfunctional movement will prevail.
The body is an interlinked kinetic chain where the movement in one area can affect another, sometimes far removed from each other. So the bit that hurts maybe being restricted or being forced to move to much by another area's movement problems.
We need to find these active restrictions to gain a true picture of our client's movement potential and this picture could be vital to resolving chronic injury.
This means we have to move away from just symptomatic assessment to fully understand the why behind pain and movement dysfunctions.
A moving assessment is a must!
Ask the right questions and get the right answers!
We look at:
Principles Of Function
Brain, motor control and proprioception in function
'The Rules Of Function' - Applied Biomechanics And functional muscle function
Functional gait assessment
Functional assessment process inc Foot, hips and thoracic spine
Functional Treatment process
Functional exercise for rehabilitation
"Feels like the missing links of physio taught by @CorKinetic, Recommended course/essential #physio" Sam Bishop, Physio - Twitter
"Hi Ben. Thanks for developing such a great course where new concepts of assessment where made fun and easy to understand.
Thank Danny for the exercise programme at the end, my whole body feels much looser and relaxed and I slept like a log" Andrew Naylor-Vane, Sports therapist.
