Course Description:

Management of Extremity Injuries
Presented by Dr. Dan McClure

This course is an extensive study in the management of extremity injuries. Course content includes an in-depth analysis of anatomy, biomechanics, mechanisms of injuries, arthrokinematics and the nutritional requirements of the healing process.

This is an interactive course in which the doctors will actively participate in the examination, treatment and rehabilitation of common injuries. Doctors will learn standard treatments as well as advanced manipulative techniques developed by Dr. McClure.

This very ’Äúhands-on’Äù approach is designed for the doctors to be able to apply the learned techniques immediately in their own practices.

A review of anatomy prior to both Part 1 and Part 2 is highly recommended.

Part 1 - Upper Extremities:
Areas covered include the hand, wrist, forearm, elbow, arm, shoulder complex and the thorax.

Part 2 - Lower Extremities:
Areas to be covered include the foot, ankle, leg, knee, thigh, hip and pelvis. Also covered will be foot biomechanics, phases of gait and orthotics.
