Registered Osteopath & International Lecturer in Manipulation

July 18, 19, 20, 2025 – Introductory Level I Minimal Lever Mid Range (MLMR) Manipulation

Daryl Herbert is a senior lecturer at the University College of Osteopathy (UCO) formerly the British School of Osteopathy (BSO), London, UK, and has been teaching osteopathic and manipulative technique and manual therapy since 1991. He qualified in 1988 from the UCO and has taught there since, in the out-patient’s clinic, in the technique classrooms of all years, being responsible for first years education for over fifteen years and more recently the Advanced Spinal Manipulation Elective for the final years students. In the last twenty-six years Daryl has taught all over Europe, Scandinavia, Canada, USA, Australia and the Middle East, in almost 20 countries world wide with osteopaths, physiotherapists, chiropractors and manual therapists.

Daryl studied under Professor Laurie Hartman the leading light in the world of manipulation and the teaching of manual techniques. Having worked with Laurie both clinically in his practice, assisting him teach for ten years and since working alongside him as equals, Daryl’s own teaching style and approach has developed in such a way that his teaching is in great demand.

The Osteopathic Technique Instructional Videos, Series 1 & Series 2 are the culmination of years of development & practice in the teaching of Minimal Lever Mid Range (MLMR) manipulation. These videos represent the current standard for the desire to be able to perform with optimum results, safe, comfortable, effective & efficient manipulation techniques, which are supported by up to date research.

These videos will be an essential guide for students and practitioners who desire to improve their current knowledge and skills and for those who wish to push themselves and the boundaries of their treatment for their patients.

This online TMJ course provides a basic understanding of Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) and Craniofacial Pain (CFP). Participants will learn anatomy and biomechanics of the normal Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ), as well as abnormal mechanics or pathophysiological mechanics that will require a comprehensive evaluation and treatment approach. This TMJ course is designed to help differentiate myofascial related pain from internal derangements and educate on the interrelationship between the cervical spine and the TMJ. Participants will gain insight into a basic home exercise regimen for their patients. There will also be discussions about appropriate orthotic therapy, lifestyle changes, potential surgical interventions and how to build a rapport with the dental community and other healthcare providers so the best possible outcomes can be achieved for patients.

Objectives

By the end of the course, the participant will be able to better understand:

Describe basic TMJ anatomy, biomechanics, and pathomechanics.
Recognize how postural or cervical dysfunction might contribute to TMJ disorders.
Evaluate the TMJ and develop a working hypothesis.
Demonstrate appropriate manual and exercise techniques for the treatment of TMD.
Identify the PT’s role within the dental community for the treatment of TMD.
Recognize other treatment options outside of PT.
Educate clients in the management of TMD.
