This course is designed to advance participant's clinical reasoning and competency in the advanced assessment, differential diagnosis and management of the lumbar spine and pelvis. Course content encompasses a complete and comprehensive review of assessment and management paradigms. It will integrate the latest research, be presented within the context of advanced clinical reasoning, with the highest levels of clinical competence. Participants will be engaged with an advanced approach to assessment and management of lumbo-pelvic conditions that will consolidate and build on previous knowledge using interactive clinical reasoning.
Complex cases and patient demonstrations will be used to illustrate the clinical reasoning processes in the assessment and management of complex lumbar and pelvic pain patient presentation s, covering manual therapy, activity and exercise approaches.
Presented by three specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapists with appointments at Curtin, Sydney and Macquarie Universities, participants will have the opportunity to engage in interactive education by educators with the highest clinical, teaching and research expertise.
Over the three days, participants will be expected to:
• Day One: Cover differential diagnosis, evidence based practice, advanced manual therapy techniques and exercise prescription for acute low back pain, based on a clinical reasoning framework.
• Day Two: Improve their ability to assess, differentially diagnose and manage acute and chronic pelvic girdle pain, using an advanced clinical reasoning tool.
• Day Three: Integrate clinical reasoning into the assessment and differential diagnosis, sub classification and management of chronic lumbar spine and pelvic disorders at an advanced level.
Want a clear understanding of differential diagnosis of common and not so common Hip conditions that present for treatment but don't know where to start? This course is for you.
You will gain a better understanding of a comprehensive differential diagnosis assessment protocols to specifically identify structural and functional deficits in Hip pathology and dysfunction.
The Pain Physiotherapy Level 1 course outlines the key principles of Pain and Pain Management which can be immediately transferred to practice. This course presents this foundational knowledge to support physiotherapists who are new, recently graduated or experienced (across all the different disciplines) and are looking to expand, refresh and better integrate their knowledge in the area of pain physiotherapy.
The aims of this course is to:
1. Understand the burden of pain throughout society
2. Develop a biopsychosocial model for the assessment and management of pain
3. Be able to understand the need for a person-centred approach to pain assessment and management
Part B consists of a live webinar that consolidates the learning from Part A through facilitated case study analysis and open discussion.

This course provides a comprehensive muscular assessment and exercise rehab program for the lumbo-pelvic region and a wide variety of age-related hip conditions that present for assessment. This two-day course is very practical where participants are exposed to a wide variety of functional exercises and theory/research behind how to assess and progress a lumbo/pelvic functional program and rehab strategies for the older hip patients.
A comprehensive exercise protocol specific to age related Hip dysfunction will be explained and demonstrated with take home exercise examples for clinical use. The muscle assessment and exercise program design can be progressed from very specific retraining of spinal, pelvic and hip muscular stability through to dynamic functional movement patterns required for work, ADL through to high level sport.
This highly practical course explores a systematic, evidence-based method for simplifying the management of a variety of common shoulder dysfunctions.
Participants are taught a comprehensive, yet simple to follow, (step-by-step) assessment, treatment and clinical reasoning pathway to assure successful outcomes.
Participants will be fine-tuning essential therapy skills with respect to meaningful objective assessments, effective hands-on treatment techniques and functional exercise prescription.
This course is for physiotherapists:
