Low back and hip pain can be tricky to treat as injury to the low back will often involve hip symptoms and conversely, hip pain frequently stems from the lumbar spine.
Practitioners taking
this class will learn how to:
- Observe, assess and treat the low back and hip as one complex
Precisely identify imbalance between the musculature acting on the hip and low back - Examine injuries from a mechanical “how and why” using orthopedic physical evaluations and manual muscle testing to assess the integrity of
the musculoskeletal system while also staying true to the principles of Chinese Medicine
- Provide innovative treatment protocols to help correct these imbalances for true lasting pain relief, including advanced needle techniques, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitated stretching and myofascial release techniques
