Clinical Neurodynamics -Upper Quarter Course
September 7-8, 2012      New York City

 
CONTENTS

1 The concept of neurodynamics

2 Neurodynamic sequencing

3 " Effect of bilateral neurodynamic testing on neurodynamics – SLR and upper limb neurodynamic tests

4 " Neuropathodynamics – expanding the boundaries and classification of different dysfunctions

5 " Neurodynamic testing – MNT1, MNT2, RNT, UNT, RSNT and sensitisation

6 " Planning the physical examination – how not to provoke pain but still treat the neurodynamic component. How to sensitise the examination and treatment for hidden neurodynamic problems, level 1,2 and type 3a, 3b, 3c and 3d examinations.

7 " Diagnosis of neurodynamic tests – differentiating neural tissue from neuromusculoskeletal tissues, establishing what is normal and abnormal

8 " Classification and diagnosis of specific dysfunctions – sliding dysfunction, tension dysfunction, pathophysiological dysfunction, mechanosensitivity dysfunction, mechanical interface dysfunctions, hyperactivity protective muscle dysfunction, innervated tissue dysfunctions.

9 " Method of treatment – system of technique progression, hypersensitivity problems, hidden neural component and sensitised examination

10.Treatment progressions – cervical nerve root foraminal opening and closing dysfunctions, neural tension dysfunction, combined neural tension and reduced closing dysfunctions (level/type 3c), thoracic outlet syndrome treatment combinations, medial and lateral elbow pain, carpal tunnel syndrome. Neural tension dysfunction, specific neural sliding dysfunctions

 
Applied to Specific Disorders
  • Cervical radiculopathy and cervicobrachialgia
  • Thoracic outlet syndrome
  • Lateral elbow pain
  • Medial elbow pain

     Customer Testimonials

This is my 4th course with Hands-On Seminars and I would highly recommend it to my colleagues. The instructors are extremely friendly and knowledgeable and made the courses interesting. The small class size helps to receive greater attention during lab sessions.
