Part A - The Lumbar Spine

29-31 January 2021

Online learning

This course will be delivered entirely online. 

This four day (28 hour) course presents the theoretical aspects and concepts of the McKenzie Method in Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy, as applied in the examination and treatment of patients with complaints of low back and related referred pain.  Through lectures and patient demonstrations the derangement, dysfunction and postural syndromes are described in detail and appropriate treatment plans are outlined with emphasis on the use of patient self-treatment procedures.  The clinical efficacy and limitations of the McKenzie approach as applied to the lumbar spine, are illustrated by follow-up patient demonstrations. 

There is a self-learning online component to successfully complete at least one week before commencement of the rest of the course.  This online component is approximately 7 hours work.
