John Gibbons's video: Cervical Spine - Active Range of Motion testing C1 C2 AA Joint

https://bodymaster-method.mykajabi.com/cervical-masterclass In this video, John demonstrates how to actively assess the cervical spine for range of motion and also focusses on the C1/C2 - known as the Atlantoaxial Joint. Osteopath, lecturer and author John Gibbons offers an accessible introduction to the Vital Cervical Spine Online Masterclass and is a comprehensive, must-have roadmap from firstly understanding all of the related functional anatomy, through to assessing and subsequently treating the region of the cervical spine. The course text is enriched with anatomical drawings throughout, with detailed explanations which accompany the lessons. The literature is complimented by the associated videos which further explain and expand upon topics such as neurological testing using the patella hammer, common neuropathies, pathologies, and differential diagnoses for pain arising to the cervical spine. It is an indispensable resource for physical therapists and bodyworkers. Alongside real-life case studies and guidelines for hands-on work with clients and patients, The Vital Cervical Spine Online Masterclass demystifies and succinctly presents everything you need to know to be confident and competent in this area; from how to diagnose specific nerve conditions as a result of disc pathology to understanding how to differentiate motion from C1 & C2 (AA Joint) as compared to the rest of the cervical spine. Gibbons provides critical insights into the structure and function of the unique anatomical region of the cervical spine, as well as the body’s response to referred patterns of pain and the different types of pain as perceived by the patient. The Vital Cervical Spine Masterclass will enable you to: - Assess the cervical spine nervous system using a patella (reflex) hammer, myotome (muscle) testing and dermatome (sensory) testing - Determine whether pain in the shoulder, arm or hand is in fact a referral pattern originating from the cervical spine - Utilise active and passive range of motion tests to determine if the pathology is a muscular or a joint issue - Decide at what level a cervical disc may have herniated - Know what to do with the findings of your neurological assessment and the circumstances under which to refer patients for more specialist care Key areas covered in this course: Functional Anatomy of the Cervical Spine Posture & Position of the Cervical Spine Anatomy and Function of the Cervical & Brachial Plexuses Radial, Median, Ulnar, Musculocutaneous & Axillary Nerve Testing Assessment of the Cervical Spine Deep Tendon Reflexes (DTRs) Sensory Testing - Dermatomes & Cutaneous Nerves Motor Testing - Myotomes Cervical Disc Anatomy & Pathology Common Medical Conditions associated with the Cervical Spine Muscle Length Testing & Treatment for the Cervical Spine Myofascial Soft Tissue Techniques Kinesiology & Athletic Taping Techniques Upper Limb Tension Tests (ULTT) - Median, Radial & Ulnar Nerve tests Phalens & Tinel Neurological tests The Bodymaster Method® is accredited by the Sports Therapy Organisation (STO).
