Louvain-la-Neuve

| Main themes |
The topics addressed within this course are:
- Anatomy, biomechanics and physiology of the following body regions: lower limbs, pelvis, lumbar spine, dorsal spine, rib cage;
- The interaction of these body regions with other regions and organs;
- Tests and examinations of mobility restriction and differential techniques of mobility restoration (osteo-articular techniques, muscle chains, reflex points).
|
| Aims |
At the end of the course the successful student will be able to make a critical selection of a treatment approach among the different techniques of manual therapy. This course is the continuum of classical techniques and provides the theoretical and practical competencies that determine the intervention of the physical therapist in patients of different age groups and focused on pathologies of the musculo-skeletal system. The tests and examinations employ a hollistic view of the patient and tend to identify the regions of restricted mobility and chronic inflammation, as well as compensations above and below the lesion level that perturb the general equilibrium. This multidimensional approach uses differential techniques, depending on whether they tend to enhance articular mobility, harmonisation of different muscle groups, tissue mobility or drainage.
