POSTURE & BALANCE ASSESSMENT, REHABILITATION AND MOTOR CONTROL EXERCISE Step-by-Step StrongPosture® Protocols and Strategies for Pain Relief, Performance & Active Aging OVERVIEW The epidemiologic risk of sitting as "the new smoking" is real i.e. Biswas 2015, Lynch 2015, firmly linking posture and disease as well as mortality. And since all motion begins with posture, nearly everyone from healthcare providers to the general public acknowledges the importance of exercise and staying in motion for neuro-musculo-skeletal NMS issues. Which is why as consequences of society's new tech habits ie text-neck, computer-back, etc come to light, focusing on posture is a unifying concept for bio-mechanically based, evidence oriented clinicians to align with the rising meme of effective exercise and active lifestyles to avoid degenerative disease and age successfully. Plus, as the 77 million boomers approach their elder years, one thing is clear: The future of healthcare will not look like the past. Back pain and arthritis are already each growing $100 billion+ problems which will only worsen as our sedentary population ages. And America's changing healthcare system is creating a historic opportunity with declining insurance reimbursements increasing out-of-pocket personal responsibility for "non-essentials" including care for chronic, non-life-threatening problems such as back pain. The Posture & Balance course will integrate clinical strategies for passive therapies with active strategies for functionally strengthening posture. Systematic protocols for building personal awareness are integrated with exercises to strengthen standing balance, static alignment and dynamic motion. Three eponymous tracks of tightly defined exercises systematically progress the person to more accurately connect their body perception and motion to objective reality. Patient-friendly concepts of postural bio-mechanics use 5 common-sense principles, and are presented along with each exercise for congruent patient education towards understanding and adopting intelligent postural habits. The course presents engaging lecture videos, animations and detailed focused motion exercise videos using balls, bands, foam pads and other low-tech tools to teach clinicians to progress patients from acute care passive therapy + posture awareness through rehab care less passive therapy + increasing active rehab care exercises to train posture control and onto wellness daily posture exercises combined with passive therapy as appropriate to maximize the bio-mechanic benefits of other exercise and ADLs. The goal: Helping people move well, avoid micro-and macro-trauma injury, optimize performance and promote healthy choices to optimize bio-mechanic wellness. Functionally strengthening posture means observing and then correcting sensorimotor errors between perceived posture and motion and external reality. Systematically retraining granular motion and whole body compensatory and adaptive patterns towards accuracy is an important yet often overlooked factor in clinical NMS practices. Attendees learn to individualize StrongPosture® exercises for patient symptoms, syndromes and ability to train towards normalizing bio-mechanics despite adverse daily postural habits. From building awareness with a digital photo to empowering people to find their strongest, core engaged posture and literally stand taller, attendees will learn the keys to building a wellness identity as "the Posture Specialist". Posture is a consumer concern which will inevitably grow as boomers age and see their posture degenerate and hunch over. And people get excited when they become more posture aware with their StrongPosture® exercises, and experience objective functional improvement in how they move during normal daily activities. Which is why from pain relief and evidence based back specialist to sports performance and wellness, being a Posture Specialist is the 21st century market identity to help people move, feel and be well. COURSE DESIGN 15 hours consisting of lecture and exercise video along with supportive reading building on the following concept areas: Science: Current Research & Evidence Congruent Conjectures Neck and Back Pain Fall risk, prevention and injury mitigation Posture Bio-mechanics: PostureZone framework, BAM Model and the 5 Posture principles NMS A&P PostureZone® model and Janda's Crossed syndromes Posture pictures to benchmark and track symmetry of functional postural balance and alignment Behaviors: Individual & Social Tech. Social trends and Body-Mind interaction From Awareness to Consciousness to Habits Aging & Social Demographics 5 Posture Principles for communicating patient-friendly bio-mechanics Training people to become more "posture-conscious" during activity and ADLs Strong Posture® BAM protocols: Motor Control Exercise MCE with Attentional Focus on Three Tracks Balance track w/ Progressions and Peel-backs Alignment Track w/ Progressions and Peel-backs Motion Track w/ Progressions and Peel-backs Clinical Implementation Assessing and benchmarking standing posture with a picture Observing and correlating posture, gait and symptoms Integration with passive therapies Common clinical presentations Non-pharmaceutic pain control / management ADL modification and training An online test at the end of each 3 hour module is designed to assure understanding of concepts.
