Part of our Co-ordination Efficiency Series, this module is specifically designed to evaluate movement patterns to help change muscle function associated with pain, pathology and compromised function. This evaluation helps therapists establish a more optimised movement system for their patients through observation and analysis of muscle synergy patterns.

The main focus of this module is to explore functional activities and tasks in patients. Understanding muscle actions and observing synergist activation patterns can help clinicians identify movement patterns associated with pain and impaired function.

It supports clinicians in achieving their desired outcomes for patients through the effective management of movement and alignment, helping individuals pursue pain-free lives.

Who’s it for?

Kinetic Control courses are designed for registered healthcare professionals such as physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors and podiatrists.

In exceptional circumstances, experienced non-medical health professionals may be allowed to attend Kinetic Control courses, but participants must be able to demonstrate that the course material is within their scope of practice.

If you are not sure whether this course is right for you, please get in touch.

What’s involved?

This module is delivered over two days (12 hours), during which learners are guided through the programme and complete practical assessments.

For added reassurance, each learner is assessed throughout the course using a range of practical demonstrations and learning checks designed to support the successful integration of the content into clinical practice.

To ensure you get the most effective learning experience, learners must be physically able to participate, as practical scenario-based training sessions form an essential part of the course.

Pre-requisite

• Learners must be at least 18 years old on the first day of training.
• Candidates require a basic command of English, defined as Level 2.*

*Or the local dialect in the case of international courses.

Course delegates are required to possess appropriate qualifications and professional indemnity insurance to apply the techniques explored within our courses and products. Comera Group Limited and its subsidiaries accept no responsibility or liability for any damages arising from the application of techniques covered in our courses or products.

What’s included?

• Certification fees
• Course materials

What will I learn?

Key learning outcomes include:

• Display an understanding of the relationship between movement patterns, postural alignment and muscle synergies in functional tasks.
• Demonstrate the ability to apply a muscle synergy classification model to multi-joint movement challenges.
• Demonstrate the ability to assess the efficiency of alignment and movement patterns to reduce pain, minimise the impact of pathology and improve function.
• Display the ability to classify individuals into relevant alignment and movement pattern subgroups for the low back, hip, neck and shoulder.
• Display the ability to deliver movement intervention strategies that minimise the negative causes or consequences of alignment changes and inefficient movement patterns.
• Identify how the assessment, analysis and retraining of alignment and movement patterns can be integrated into clinical practice.

Suggested Progression

This course forms one part of our Co-ordination Efficiency Series. From here, you can progress to the other two modules:

• Coordination Efficiency to Optimise Movement Retraining for the Neck and Shoulder
• Coordination Efficiency to Optimise Movement Retraining for the Low Back and Hip

You can also progress to our Muscle Synergies Series:

• Targeting Muscle Synergies to Optimise Movement Retraining for the Low Back & Hip
• Targeting Muscle Synergies to Optimise Movement Retraining for the Neck & Shoulder
• Beyond Global Movement Control for Pain & Recurrence

We recommend continually developing and refreshing your knowledge. Explore our range of eLearning courses or view our upcoming courses.
