Integrative Acupuncture Level 1

Currently there are few options for physiotherapists who wish to explore a holistic approach to needle-based therapies. Dry needling courses offer a model that permits pain modulation but none of the systemic benefits acupuncture offers that can improve mood, sleep, inflammation, appetite and digestive function and sense of well-being.

This course is the entry level into Integrative Acupuncture (IA). IA is a palpation-based style of acupuncture that integrates examination of tissue and movement dysfunction found in manual therapies, with meridian examination found in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (AOM) practice, particularly in some styles of meridian-style Japanese Acupuncture.

The theoretical constructs of AOM pertinent to physiotherapy are introduced. The course meets with the International Association of Acupuncture and Physical Therapists' (IAAPT) recommendations for foundational courses in acupuncture. It is based on 100 hours of training: 6 days face to face and the rest through self directed learning.

This course gives participants assessment and treatment tools beyond those offered by dry needling only. The Oriental Medicine theory introduced, gives filters that assist to understand underlying tissue and movement dysfunction drivers and how to best address these.

Patients will experience benefits to their well-being such as better sleep, mood and energy levels, because acupuncture aims to address any underlying energetic imbalances.

Paediatric gait analysis and orthotic management: an optimal segment kinematics and alignment approach to rehabilitation (OSKAR)

Brought to you in collaboration with Shirley Ryan Ability Lab (SRAlab) in Chicago, and presented by esteemed paediatric and adult neurological physiotherapist Elaine Owen, this live online course explores a fresh approach to the observation and analysis of typical and atypical patterns of standing, stepping and walking with full gait cycles, OSKAR.

The kinematics and kinetics of standing and walking and the atypical gait patterns of disabling conditions will be reviewed, with particular reference to orthotic management and rehabilitation programs. Patient cases will focus on cerebral palsy, myelomeningocele and other neurological conditions, but are applicable to other diagnoses and adult conditions. A comprehensive manual accompanies the course.

A complete list of the course learning outcomes can be found in the information booklet accessed by the link below. Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to apply the learned principles directly into their working practice.
