Course objectives
The main objective of the course is diagnosis and treatment of functional disorders. Fundamentals of diagnosis and treatment of functional disorders, described to Lewit and Rychlíková, lectures and practical exercises. Functional pathology deals with the problems of overworking locomotive system. It explains the concept of segmental motor innervation system, the control of motoneurons and muscle activity, their pathology as a result of pathological changes in functional segment.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student is able to:
- palpation techniques, search for functional pathogens. PIR technology; TrP removal techniques, reffered pain
- soft techniques in the hull area, in the shoulder and upper limb area - soft pelvis and lower limb techniques - basic differential diagnostic problems
- examination, functional joint block
- mobilization of hand joints, mobilization of the wrist and elbow joint, elbow joint and shoulder joint; mobilization of the shoulder joint
- mobilization of the hip joint
- mobilization of knee joint, pallet and fibula head, hip joint
- mobilization of ankle, feet
