John Gibbons – The Vital Nerves Masterclass
The Vital Nerves online course is a must for any therapist or student in the field of sports therapy, osteopathy, physiotherapy, chiropractic, yoga, pilates and functional anatomy.
You will learn
The Vital Nerves online masterclass is a comprehensive, must-have roadmap of the functional anatomy & assessment of the peripheral nervous system. This course is enriched with lively anatomical illustrations which accompany the text, and associated videos thoroughly explaining everything from neurological testing, common neuropathies, and differential diagnoses. This course is an indispensable resource for physical therapists and bodyworkers.
John Gibbons brings the peripheral nervous system (PNS) to life with real case studies from his own practice, and personal insights for successful hands-on treatment drawn from his own 30 years of experience. The Vital Nerves masterclass demystifies what is a fascinating but complex subject and teaches you everything you need to know – from how to diagnose nerve conditions to understanding how our cells communicate.
You will gain critical insights into the structure and functions of the PNS; the body’s response to stimuli and how it knows what to do; the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems; understanding the stress response; and how reflex testing can aid in diagnosing conditions like M.S., Parkinson’s Disease, and disc herniations. Known as ‘the expert’s expert’, The Bodymaster himself will take you step-by-step through how to:
- Assess the nervous system using a patella (reflex) hammer, myotome (muscle) testing and dermatome (sensory) testing
- Determine whether pain in the posterior part of the thigh is caused by the sciatic nerve, piriformis or simply a hamstring strain
- Decide at what level a disc may have herniated
- Differentiate between upper and lower motor neurone disorders
- Know what to do with the findings of your neurological assessment and the circumstances under which to refer patients for more specialist care.
On completion of the course you will have the knowledge and practical experience necessary to identify, assess and treat specific pathologies found within the neurological framework and perform a variety of techniques that will help formulate a diagnosis and prognosis for your patients.
