Integrated and dynamic approach to the pelvic and hip region

This 2-day specialist led course adopts a biopsychosocial approach to explore the evidence based literature to then work within a framework of clinical reasoning to tackle complex lumbar pelvic and hip clinical presentations.

This approach integrates research, targeted assessments, motor control and movement analysis to assist in diagnostic and management strategies that include a focus on complex patient presentations in this area. Exercise and exercise progressions are reviewed and patient focussed rehabilitation options explored.

This course is very interactive and patient management based. It explores what challenges we face today in the questioning of manual therapy, the fast changing space of pain science and pain education and integrates this into a cognitive and exercise based approach to the management of these often complex presentations.
Any physiotherapist working with low back pain, pelvic girdle pain or hip pathologies would benefit from participating in this course.

Learning outcomes

  • Understand current literature and contemporary thinking in the understanding of pelvic girdle pain across the paradigms of musculoskeletal, pregnancy related and sports related pelvic girdle pain.
  • Utilise clinical reasoning protocol to effectively differentially diagnose pelvic girdle pain and subsequent contributions from the lumbar spine and also the hip complex.
  • Adapt clinical tests to understand contributions in the face of pelvic girdle pain that may be lumbar or hip complex driven
  • Understand pelvic girdle pain in the context of a biopsychosocial model and adapt common hip pathology into this presentation.
  • Explore common hip pathological presentations and subsequent management strategies

Prerequisites

  • This course is only available to qualified and AHPRA registered physiotherapists.
  • Pre-reading materials distributed at registration cut off date.
