Level 2: Movement Efficiency for the Neck and Shoulder, India

Description

KC Tutor Padmanaban Sekaran continues to develop the programme and introduces new students to Kinetic Control with his lectures, seminars and workshops, all largely taking place in Bangalore. COURSE INTRODUCTION Movements of the head, neck and shoulder girdle are both anatomically and biomechanically linked as many of the muscles producing or controlling movement of the neck also produce and control movement of the shoulder. As the neck and shoulder are functionally interdependent it seems clear both should be assessed and retrained together. It is not just these regions that closely interact in the production of efficient movement. All functional movement utilises synergistic patterns of recruitment between one-joint stabiliser and multi-joint mobiliser muscles. Predictable and consistent impairments in the co-ordinated activation of these synergists has been associated with pain and the site and direction of uncontrolled movement. Changes in their synergies or patterns of recruitment also affects the efficiency of their ability to produce or control movement. Based on a diagnosis of movement control impairment, a clinical reasoning approach can prioritise which synergists are more relevant to test and retrain. Assessing and retraining these muscles to recover their length and recruitment deficiencies can help manage pain, impairment and recurrence. KEY FEATURES Predictable changes in length and recruitment of global one-joint stabiliser and multi-joint mobiliser synergists are related to pain and impairment of the neck and shoulder Based on a diagnosis of uncontrolled movement of the neck and shoulder, the anatomical location stabiliser and mobiliser synergists can be used to prioritise the assessment of recruitment and length of the synergists Testing and retraining recruitment efficiency of global stabiliser muscles of the neck and shoulder is established Testing extensibility and inhibitory retraining options of the global mobiliser muscles is presented Impairment specific retraining of optimal movement control of the neck and shoulder is established To make a booking enquiry about any of our courses in India visit the booking page on the KC website
