This two and a half-day course will focus on the evaluation and treatment of the upper quarter and will include the shoulder, upper thoracic spine, and cervical spine. Identification of common faulty movement patterns in the upper quarter will be presented. The course will include the assessment and treatment of neural tension influences on cervical spine movement. A review of the treatment of the upper thoracic spine and 1st rib is included as a prelude to the treatment of the cervical spine. Evaluation and treatment of the shoulder and cervical spine is included. Treatment of the cervical spine will include joint mobilization, muscle energy techniques, and myofascial release to the anterior fascias of the neck. Home exercises for the upper quarter are included.

  1. To review the functional anatomy and biomechanics of the UQ.
  2. Identify common faulty movement patterns seen in the UQ.
  3. For the student to be able to assess for adverse neural tension in the UQ and understand its influence on cervical spine mobility.
  4. Review the evaluation and treatment of the upper thoracic spine and for the student to understand how thoracic spine dysfunction influences shoulder function.
  5. For the student to learn how to evaluate each of the four joints of the shoulder.
  6. For the student to be able to evaluate and treat the cervical spine using joint mobilization, muscle energy, and fascial release techniques
  7. For the student to learn home exercises for the UQ.
