721 Neurological Reset for the Hips and Lower Extremity – San Francisco

Instructors:
Dr. Adam Klotzek
Dr. Freddys Garcia

The Neurological Reset for the Hips and Lower Extremity Seminar focuses on orthopedic conditions involving the hips and lower extremity. It also focuses on the influences of various neurological systems for the onset and promotion of these conditions.

How we stand and move throughout our environment is the product of our neurology and biomechanics. Abnormalities in how these systems function and integrate can produce biomechanical faults which may manifest as painful syndromes. Participant practitioners in this seminar will come away with an increased understanding of neurological & biomechanical dysfunctions often associated with specific musculoskeletal conditions, and a firm understanding of the effective “neurological resets” to correct them.

This module moves beyond just making an appropriate diagnosis, but rather focuses on how to get the patient out of pain as quickly and effectively as possible using a neuro-biomechanical model.

Conditions Covered:

1. Piriformis Syndrome
2. Weakness and Tendonitis involving the Gluteus Medius & Maximus
3. Iliotibial Band Friction Syndrome
4. Hip Joint Osteoarthritis
5. Greater Trochanter Bursitis
6. Meralgia Paresthetica
7. Chronic Hamstring Tightness with associated strains.
8. Patellar Tracking Issues “Chondromalacia Patella”
9. Osgood-Schlatter disease
10. Medial Collateral Knee Joint Pain
11. Lateral Collateral Knee Joint Pain
12. Shin Splints
13. Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
14. Plantar Fasciitis
15. Morton’s Neuromas
16. Achilles Tendonitis
17. Peroneal Nerve Entrapment Syndrome at the fibular head

For each of the above conditions, the following will be discussed:

1. History & Progression
2. Main Biomechanical Contributions
3. Relevant Orthopedic & Manual Tests
4. Neurological Influences of:
   1. Vestibular System
   2. Visual System
   3. Proprioceptive System
5. Examination skills needed to identify the above-mentioned conditions and their central neurological influences.
6. Treatment of the above conditions using “neurological resets”

Types of Techniques that will be Taught

• rehabilitative exercise
• advanced muscle techniques
• dermal tissue strategies
• joint manipulation techniques
• vision system training
• sensory system applications
• vestibular system rehabilitation
• neurological layering techniques
• Neurodynamic Techniques

Benefits for the attendees of the Pain Reset Series

1. Accuracy – Know exactly where to focus your energy to maximize the results for your patients.
2. Speed – Learn techniques that can sometimes yield instantaneous results for your patients.
3. Reproducible – Learn a model that is fluid and dynamic that can be applied to patients commonly seen in the clinical setting.
4. Results – The opportunity to have the clinical outcomes and practice you always dreamed of.
