KC Online: Managing Restrictions Masterclass with Mark Comerford


Description
This masterclass blends expertise in manual therapy techniques, and movement analysis and retraining,
within a rigorous framework of clinical reasoning to exert change on deficits in range and
movement. It delivers skills to allow the nature of a restriction to be efficiently identified
(myofascial/articular) and for the application of the most effective techniques to manage this deficit. It 'connects the dots' of restriction, compensation and risk, ensuring practitioners’ clinical reasoning skills become more robust in the face of deficits in flexibility and movement efficiency.

This course will allow participants to manage restrictions and optimize Movement Health and
enhance quality of life. To achieve this outcome, participants will be able to:

• Evaluate extensibility & flexibility and analysis the consequence of restriction
• Explore the source of restrictions: articular and soft tissue restrictions including contractile
tissue, connective tissue restrictions and neurodynamic influences
• Apply a muscle synergy classification model to address the presence of restriction and
influence on movement quality
• Apply a range of strategies to regain both myofascial extensibility and address articular
restrictions within a clinical reasoning framework
• Identify the relationship between a restriction, loss of movement choices, pain, recurrence
and compromised function
• Apply both myofascial and connective tissue extensibility techniques into exercise
programmes

This course is suitable for:

Physiotherapists, Pilates Instructors, Movement Therapists, Coaches, Personal Trainers,
Medics & Sports Medicine Professionals, Strength & Conditioning Coaches, Sport Therapists,
Rehab Therapists, Osteopaths, Chiropractors

• Designed to help any movement, performance or therapy focussed professional to become
proficient in the assessment and mobilisation of both articular and myofascial restrictions
• On completion of the course, attendees will possess a range of skills
which can be instantly applied within a systemised framework of movement efficiency
• The course provides a rigorous clinical reasoning structure to assist the identification and
management of restrictions contributing to movement control impairments for all patient,
client or athlete groups
