Course Content
Basic features of joint and soft tissue functional anatomy, biomechanics and pathomechanism, manipulation, mobilization and transverse friction techniques, basic measurement, evaluation and manual treatment applications in joint and soft tissue pathologies, clinical decision making and case examples.
Objectives of the Course
To introduce the situations that cause pain, inflammation and limitation of movement in joints and soft tissues, to give a grasp of the basic methods used in evaluation, to give them the ability to apply basic mobilization and manipulation techniques for the treatment of these conditions.
