Introduction
Neural Visceral dynamic of the Lower Quadrant is an important skill component for treating clients with musculoskeletal and orthopaedic conditions. The lower limbs receive neural inputs from the lumbar plexus, namely the Femoral and Sciatic nerves. These two nerves, after exiting from the lumbar spine foramen, will travel past the abdominal visceral fascial, muscles and joints of the lower limbs. Any dysfunctions and/ or disorders of these interfaces will result in clinical presentations of pain and disability. This 2-day workshop is designed to teach clinicians how to clinically reason and assess these interfaces, hence formulating treatment for lower quadrant pain and disorders. Using manual therapy and exercise rehabilitation concepts, this will be an incredible opportunity to hone your clinical skills and reasoning in this specialized area of rehabilitation for your patients.
Aims
The course covers a wide range of topics, including manual assessment techniques, manual therapy approaches, exercise rehabilitation concepts, and practical applications through case studies. Dr Ng Chong Ching will assimilate the latest techniques and treatment approaches to effectively manage complex areas of the body, providing you with the necessary skills to promote faster patient recovery.
