Advanced Level Biomechanics of the Foot, Ankle, & Lower Extremity

This two-day seminar is designed to provide an expanded approach to clinical problem solving by understanding lower extremity biomechanics and applying these principles to improve structural alignment and function. The course content will build upon basic principles to give the clinician new tools and perspectives on management of common clinical problems. The course will cover running biomechanics and injuries, manual therapy, biomechanical examination, video analysis, shoe prescription, conservative and post-operative treatment protocols, and foot orthotics. The lecture content will be reinforced by demonstration and “hands-on” lab sessions throughout the course.
