Welcome to Neuroseminars
The clinical benefit associated with manual therapy is not simply related to restoring movement to restricted joints and normalising local muscle tone through segmental reflex effects. A major therapeutic role is attributed to activation of the central nervous system (CNS) – in recent years the literature is saying this more and more. It is thought that many chronic or treatment-resistant musculoskeletal conditions are perpetuated by ongoing neurological dysfunctions or maladaptive post-injury changes in the CNS. It has also been suggested that a neurorehabilitative approach is what is needed to more successfully manage chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Our seminars will provide you with the knowledge and practical skills needed to integrate a neurorehabilitative approach into your clinical practice, giving you the skills needed to better manage chronic pain, repeat or persistent musculoskeletal injury, and more neurological conditions, such as migraine, whiplash, mild traumatic brain injury, vertigo and balance disorders.
Manual therapists excel in their ability to detect subtle differences in musculoskeletal structure and function, for example through muscle testing, feeling for joint restrictions and checking for leg length discrepancies. Our seminars will teach you how to transfer these same skills to neurological testing. Functional imbalances within the brain frequently cause or contribute to patients’ presenting complaints. For example they can cause:
