This hands-on course introduces the teachings of the late Professor Vladimir Janda MD. Janda was a pioneer in muscle imbalances and chronic musculoskeletal pain. He identified specific clinical “crossed syndromes” of muscular imbalance, focusing more on global function than isolated structures. This workshop will describe the scientific basis for Janda’s approach, as well as a systematic evaluation and treatment of functional pathology. An evidence-based approach to the conservative management of common musculoskeletal conditions will be presented for upper and lower quarter muscle imbalance syndromes.
