Skill Course

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization according to Kolar


1st-2nd October 2014
Auditorium, Popular Book Store, Unit 1, 9/fl Mega Box 38 Wan Chiu Road Kowloon Bay Kowloon

 

Course Description

Much attention has been given in recent years to the development, maintenance and decline of functional stability of the locomotor system. Indeed, emerging research has proven the existence of the deep, or core, stabilizing muscles and their impact in controlling safe joint motion. This is especially true for the joints of the spinal column, where the complexity of the biomechanical and neurophysiological demands is phenomenal. With the increased understanding of functional stability have arisen new theories regarding the etiology of functional pathology and also of effective treatment methods to restore stability. Unfortunately, these techniques have yielded less than satisfactory results for many frustrated clinicians. Some methods, although based on sound principles, have been criticized as impractical.

It is during this period that a new method of intrinsic locomotor system stabilization has arisen to dramatically gain the attention of rehabilitation specialists. Pavel Kolar, PaedDr., Ph.D. has indeed spawned a new manual approach to activate the intrinsic system and achieve exciting levels of improved function in a remarkably brief period. Based upon the principles of developmental kinesiology, the neurophysiological aspects of the maturing locomotor system on which the Prague school was established, he has expanded the scope of clinical options in an exciting new direction. Attendees to the course will be introduced to these methods.

Skill Course Goals

  • Review basic principles of developmental kinesiology.
  • Review relationship between development during the first year of life and dysfunction of the locomotor system in adulthood.
  • Review basis of human movement: support, stepping forward, the biomechanics of 
motor function, the verticalization process & functional joint centration in postural development and in sport performance.
  • Demonstrate and workshop developmental kinesiology principles for mobilization and relaxation musculoskeletal techniques.
  • Review DNS based self-treatment techniques for patients with back, shoulder and hip pain.
  • Evaluate and correct poor respiratory patterns for aerobic and strength types of sports performance.
  • Assess the integrated stabilizing system of the spine during various types of sport performance.
  • Integrate corrective exercises based on the DNS functional tests and developmental positions in supine, prone, low kneeling, oblique sit and quadruped global movements.
  • Demonstrate how DNS corrective exercises can be integrated with other exercise strategies.
