The Spinal Physiotherapy Part A (Lumbar) course in conjunction with Spinal Physiotherapy Part A (Cervical), is the current replacement of the former Spinal Level 1 course.

The course is aimed at physiotherapists who are seeking to develop a career in musculoskeletal physiotherapy. Delivered via a mix of teaching and learning approaches including didactic, practical/hands-on, directed learning and facilitated case-based group discussions, course participants will enhance their theoretical knowledge and demonstrate this understanding into practical application, reinforcing critical thinking in the area of musculoskeletal physiotherapy.

Multimodal management of low back disorders.

Optimising participation outcomes for children and youth with long term health conditions or disability is a primary goal of healthcare. In the last 3-4 years' we have gained greater clarity about what is meant by the idea of participation. This clarity has led to more targeted intervention development and the possibility of real improvements in the participatory lives of children and families.

This presentation will provide an overview of the notion of participation, how it can be measured, and consider the current evidence base for best-practice approaches to changing participation outcomes. The focus of research presented will be on children and young people, however the conceptual issues and approaches are pertinent across the life span.
