Advanced Muscle Energy with Clinical Correlation

Start Date Friday, May 16, 2008
End Date Tuesday, May 20, 2008
Description This course expands upon previous training on the use of muscle contraction as an activating force, particularly Muscle Energy: Level I. A lecture, demonstration, and small group practice session format will review and enhance the concepts of muscle contraction and its use throughout the musculoskeletal system, including the extremities, as well as the vertebral column. More advanced techniques will be provided for the pelvis and spine. Muscle energy technique for the upper and lower extremities will be given. Problem solving and integration with exercise principles will be emphasized. Students are requested to bring past experiences with muscle energy techniques for group discussion.
