Webinar Description

This webinar will demonstrate the entire lower extremity systematic examination on a subject with low back pain.  Continuing from what the participants learned in the first webinar, the live examination will clearly show how the subject's movement pattern is contributing to the symptoms.  Systematic examination helps to identify the provocative alignment and movement pattern, and provides direction for treatment.  By the end of the webinar, the subject will be educated on the cause of their low back pain, how to change their daily movement patterns, and a few therapeutic exercises as needed.  Participants are welcome to ask questions after the live demonstration.

Participants have the choice of attending the live webinar on February 5, 2025, and/or reviewing the presentation as a self-paced online course.  To receive CEU approved by California PT Association, participant must complete the course evaluation AND score 80% or higher on the post-webinar quiz.  CEU will expire on February 5, 2026, therefore, post-webinar quiz must be passed before the recording access expires or by February 5, 2026, whichever comes first.

 

Learning Objectives

Upon viewing this webinar content, and passing the post-webinar quiz on the course page, the participants will be able to:

  • Visualize the systematic examination on an individual with low back pain.
  • Understand the difference between primary and secondary tests.
  • Understand that the non-optimal alignment and movement patterns are contributing to the subject’s low back pain.
  • Correlate the subject’s ADLs and work-related / sports-specific tasks to the movement pattern.
  • Understand the instructions provided for home program with emphasis on changing the way subject performs ADLs / work and sports specific tasks.
