Course Goals:

This course will provide participants with the introductory knowledge and basic skills to begin to:

• Describe and discuss the principles of MDT and how they fit within the biopsychosocial framework, for patients with lumbar spine problems and functional limitations. 
• Appropriately apply the McKenzie Method of MDT to patients with lumbar spine problems.
• Distinguish between the MDT syndromes (Derangement, Dysfunction, Postural) and OTHER subgroups and provide appropriate management plans for each. 
• Identify when the application of external forces is required, using MDT’s concept of ‘Progression of Forces’.
• Recognise how to assist patients to design and apply the therapeutic processes to achieve their goals, taking into account any personal or environmental barriers to recovery.

It’s time to learn what you don’t know about The McKenzie Method®!

FEEDBACK FROM FELLOW CLINICIANS ON RECENT COURSES:

• This was an excellent course. One of the most thorough and practically applicable PT courses I have taken.
• I absolutely loved the course! It furthered my understanding from “use some repetitive movements” to understanding MDT is a comprehensive system used from the start to end of the clinical process.
• MDT is a game changer in my Physiotherapy practice, patients recover so fast once directional preference is identified.
• I feel so much more confident treating complex and unusual symptomatic patients with the MDT system.
• Most informative physio course I have taken. Couldn’t have asked for a better clinical instructor.
• I feel that the MDT courses have advanced my practice knowledge by multiple years and instilled more confidence when treating more complicated patients.
