Description

Course emphasizes the interpretation of basic science knowledge and integration with basic clinical skills needed to complete a differential evaluation of extremity dysfunction and proceed to treatment. Knowledge and principles of functional anatomy, biomechanics, and pathology are presented as an integrated concept related to clinical cases. The clinical content of the course includes differential examination, with special emphasis on palpatory techniques such as end-feel, and joint mobility testing and treatment. Critical thinking and problem solving are emphasized with specific clinical cases.
