Part of our Muscle Synergies Series, this module is specifically designed to develop clinicians’ ability to achieve the greatest change in their patients’ movement, risk of recurrence and function by focusing on muscle synergies of the low back and hip.

The main focus of this course is to give clinicians the assessment and movement retraining tools needed to alter the contributions of synergistic muscles. This process is designed to help patients move through each day using more optimal movement patterns.

It supports clinicians in achieving their desired outcomes for patients through the identification and management of movement impairment associated with a current low back or hip issue.

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:

• Demonstrate the skills required to change patients’ movement through the assessment and retraining of muscle synergies.
• Relate muscle synergy recruitment patterns to pain, recurrence and compromised function.
• Demonstrate the ability to assess and retrain muscle synergy efficiency.
• Demonstrate the ability to assess loss of extensibility and aberrant recruitment substitutions involving dominant synergists.
• Display a range of movement retraining options and match the level of retraining to each patient’s abilities and goals.
• Operate within a structured clinical reasoning framework to help patients achieve their desired outcomes.

Suggested Progression

This course forms one part of our Muscle Synergies Series. You can also progress to:

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

You can also progress to our Co-ordination Efficiency Series:

• Coordination Efficiency to Optimise Movement Retraining for the Neck and Shoulder
• Coordination Efficiency to Optimise Movement Retraining for the Low Back and Hip
• Multi-Joint Synergies in Alignment and Coordination

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