MANUAL ETIOLOGY

SPINOLOGY

After your mastery of the treatment of the pelvis, we can consider, once the foundations of the spine normalized, to do the same for the lumbar spine the rib cage, back and cervical spine.

    TBD

Program Overview

The program consists after an anatomo-biomechanical review of the spine, to study the tests, evaluations and detection of lesions, then the different techniques of normalizations to answer the different lesions.

These complex methodologies are based on a tensegritive model of biomechanics. If these methods are not applied correctly, the therapist becomes ineffective and can put the patient/client at risk.

Over the course of 4 seminars (4 days each) we will explore in detail lesion mechanics, as well as the precise diagnostic tests before any correction.

Each seminar is dependent on one another. The practitioner will acquire a large number of applicable techniques for use in their clinic (photos of techniques and description will be distributed at the end of each seminar). The practical portion of the course will include demonstrations and practice treatment sessions to control the pelvis.
