The Pelvic-Hip Bridge

At the completion of this seminar, the participant will be able to:

• Confidently palpate and correctly differentiate each of the muscles covered in class in the upper extremity, trunk and lower extremity
• Independently demonstrate how 10 muscle dysfunctions relate to common symptom patterns found within the body
• Correctly and independently state and locate the origin and insertion of each of the muscles covered in the class
• Describe at least 5 functional synergist patterns
• Independently state at least 3 possible drivers of a dysfunction based on clinical presentations

At the completion of this webinar, registrants will be able to:

• Clearly describe the anatomical and fascial relationship between the Obturator Internus and the pelvic floor, specifically explaining how hip joint dysfunction can reflexively drive pelvic floor hypertonicity.
• Correctly identify 3 clinical “Red Flags” or systemic signs that indicate a patient’s pelvic-area pain may be non-musculoskeletal in nature and require medical referral.
• Clearly outline the step-by-step “Hip Capsule Clear” evaluation sequence, including how to differentiate between a “hard” capsular end-feel and a “soft” muscular restriction in the hip rotators.
• Correctly demonstrate the clinical reasoning for utilizing a Lateral Hip Distraction or a Posterior SIJ Glide to “neutralize” the pelvic ring before initiating core or pelvic floor strengthening.
• Clearly describe the “Bottom-Up” fascial link, explaining how manual release of the adductor group and medial hamstrings can measurably decrease tension in the urogenital diaphragm.
• Correctly apply the “Monday Morning” 2-Minute Screen (Prone Hip Internal Rotation) to identify the “driver” in a chronic hip or groin case that has previously plateaued with traditional isolated exercise.
