Mulligan Manual Therapy Concept: Part B: The Lower Quadrant: Peripheral Joints, Lumbar Spine and Sacroiliac joints
Saturday 21st – Sunday 22nd November 2020
Venue: Horton General Hospital, Banbury OX16 9AL
Lecturer: Thomas GC Mitchell, BSc (Hons) MSc MCTA
Ref. 2824
A two-day course presenting the Mulligan approach to manual therapy for the lumbar spine and sacroiliac joint as well as for the lower extremity.
Course Outline:
Aimed at the frontline practitioner, the Mulligan Concept is a series of instantaneous and pain-free manual therapy techniques to allow assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders to provide symptom and functional modification. Mulligan Concept courses provide clinically-directed education in:
- hands-on techniques
- self-treatment and self-management strategies
- taping and home taping techniques
These interventions shall be underpinned by sound clinical reasoning in the application of Mobilisation with Movement on patients. Current rationalisation of the evidence base for the use of the Mulligan Concept and manual therapy will be considered to facilitate participants a thorough and in-depth coverage of the Mobilisation with Movement approach.
Course objectives:
On completion of this course participants will be able to:
- Describe the underpinning theory of NAG's, SNAG's and Mobilisations with Movement (MWM's).
- Demonstrate and justify the use of spinal NAG's and SNAG's in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine.
- Demonstrate and justify the use of peripheral MWM's for the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand, hip, knee and foot and ankle with reference to common musculoskeletal disorders.
Who is this course suitable for?
This course is suitable for all musculoskeletal practitioners. It will be particularly useful to Newly Qualified, Junior or Senior Physiotherapists within musculoskeletal practice or aspiring ESP clinicians within First Contact Roles of MSK/Orthopaedic triage.
If you haven't previously attended Part A, you will receive the following course materials.
The candidate shall receive the following to allow immediate application of the Mulligan Concept in their clinical environment:
- A copy of 'NAGS, SNAGS, MWM's etc.' by Brian Mulligan
- A Mulligan treatment belt
- An extensive printed course Handbook
- Sponge foam for improved comfort with handling
14 hour CPD certificate handed at end of course signed by tutor
Fee:£300 (Refreshments included)
SPECIAL OFFER: £300 per part; £575 for Part A and B, £825 for all three parts and £350 for the exam (Part D)
