Description
Through this live webinar, participants will learn how to assess the hip joint complex more effectively and efficiently, including treatment through myofascial release of all muscles that directly and indirectly influence the hip and its function. This webinar focuses on using the manual therapy approach of Test-Treat-Retest to combine evaluation and treatment into one.
At the completion of this webinar, the participant will be able to:
1. |
Accurately describe 6 anatomical structures of the hip complex and their application to joint mechanics, hip movement and hip dysfunction |
2. |
Accurately describe the assessment concepts for hip joint complex mobilizations and myofascial release of the hip joint complex |
3. |
Demonstrate 6 hip joint complex assessments with proficiency and skill |
4. |
Demonstrate 6 hip joint complex soft tissue assessment techniques with proficiency and skill |
5. |
Independently discuss 4 treatment concepts for MFR of the lower quadrant |
