Rehab providers talk about "the core" frequently, especially for their patients with spine and lower extremity dysfunction. However, there is a wide range of practice patterns and little consensus regarding optimally training the core. This two-part course overviews current evidence and evidence-supported practices to optimize core retraining.
This is part 2 of a two-part course. This course includes manual therapy to reset neuromotor patterns, motor control retraining, diastasis rectus, and case studies.
