Taking the evolution of the spine for granted, one might not realize that it was a groundbreaking revelation in animal movement. This evolution unlocked the potential for more effective locomotion through the three dimensions of space, all without the body folding in on itself.
Delving into Spinal Structures & Function allows exploration into how the spine evolved to ensure survival and the formative forces at play in its evolutionary and embryological development. Armed with this understanding, one can construct a mental image of the consequences when things go awry—whether due to injuries, repetitive loading compromising tissue function, or pain inhibiting muscle activation.
By presenting cutting-edge insights and evaluating some of the more contentious aspects of ongoing spinal research, Spinal Structures & Function asserts that gaining a true comprehension of spinal health goes beyond merely peering through a microscope or crunching data.
This course is founded on the latest neurophysiological insights into spinal function and the diverse array of lifestyle and emotional factors that can either contribute to or detract from this functionality.
While the course encompasses a wide range of standard orthopedic spinal conditions, its scope extends beyond injuries or rehabilitation; it also delves into optimizing performance and extracting the utmost potential from one’s spine in sports or daily activities.
- How to apply the Phase Progressions model of exercise in rehabilitation and conditioning of the spine
- Key factors to effectively work with people experiencing spinal pain.
- In-depth applied information on 8 of the most common spinal conditions you’re likely to encounter with your clients.
- How allostatic load plays a key role in predisposition to spinal injury, and also in managing a return to full function.
- Why “core stability” has undergone much criticism; and why it’s still critical to understand in context and to deploy at the right time.
- How to apply the CHEK Success Formula to spinal rehabilitation and conditioning
Successfully understanding the spine is not only about learning anatomy, movements or injuries, but is about gaining a working knowledge of how spinal function can be optimized to effectively transfer force between the legs and the arms for peak performance. It is about understanding the spine’s role, not just in the musculoskeletal system, but within the system of systems that is the human body. This is why the CHEK approach to Spinal Structures and Function is like no other course in this field – it’s the spine seen through the uniquely holistic, integrated lens of the CHEK Institute.
