About the event
Course Description
Upper & Lower Quarter Neurodynamics
Presented by Michael Shacklock and based on his innovative and internationally acclaimed, best-selling text "Clinical Neurodynamics" these widely hosted hands-on courses have been running for 20 years and are offered globally at universities, elite sports centers, and hospitals.
These practical hands-on courses take the therapist from the old concepts of neural tension to a new concept of neurodynamics. Shacklock's neurodynamic concept is presented clearly and methodically and offers the clinician new techniques for diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal problems with a neural component. The Shacklock concept helps the therapist select and perform new diagnostic and treatment techniques without provoking symptoms and progresses from the highly restricted patient to the athlete. These are illustrated with practical demonstrations and real-time imaging videos of neural movement techniques, collected exclusively by Michael Shacklock and the Neurodynamic Solutions (NDS) faculty.
Key features of the courses include:
• Lab/practical sessions with demonstrations and practicing of techniques
New neural testing and treatment techniques
New systematic diagnosis and treatment approach
Integration of neural techniques with the musculoskeletal system
Systematic progressions from low to high levels of performance
Scientifically support with evidence-based research and real-time videos of nerve movement
