John Gibbons is a sports Osteopath and a lecturer for the 'Bodymaster Method ®' and in this video he is discussing the muscles of the knee complex.
In The Vital Knee Complex course, osteopath, author and respected bodywork specialist John Gibbons looks at one of the most neglected areas of the body: the knee joint. During the online course he will take you on a fascinating journey of enlightenment, teaching you to recognise pain and dysfunctional patterns that can arise from dysfunctions found within and also around the knee complex.
John will teach you functional anatomy and the biomechanics of the kinetic chain of the lower limb and the link to the knee complex and how dysfunction to distant sites of the body can cause pain to the knee region.
The knee is not a hinge joint, so what of type of joint is it classified as?
How does the hip joint cause knee pain?
What taping techniques can be utilised for patellofemoral pain syndromes?
All these questions plus more are answered during this course
Key areas covered:
Functional Anatomy of the knee Complex
Patellofemoral Pain Syndromes
How the hip joint relates to the knee complex
Function & testing of the Cruciate and Collateral ligaments and Meniscus
Muscle length tests: psoas, rectus femoris, addcutors, TFL
Treatment of the hypertonic muscles using specific modalities of MET
Demonstration of Muscle firing patterns for Gmax and Gmed
Gmax & Gmed and their relationship to the Knee Complex
McConnell & Kinesiology taping
Specific knee rehabilitation exercises
You’ll also learn how to identify specific soft tissue dysfunction and weakness within the musculo-skeletal system, and to harness powerful Muscle Energy Techniques (METs) and specific exercises to restore function and stability of the knee complex to your athletes and patients.
On completion of the course you will have the knowledge and practical experience necessary to identify, assess and treat specific pathologies and conditions found within the vital knee complex framework and perform a variety of techniques that will help promote normality.
The principles described can be incorporated very quickly and effectively into a treatment plan to assist in the rehabilitation of anyone recovering from injury.
