CORE STABILIZATION FACILITATION AND TRAINING
TECHNIQUES
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Almost everyone will experience neck or back pain
at some point in their lives. Treating neck and back pain resulting from
postural stress and instability requires a multifaceted approach. We live in a
dynamic environment and it is critical that we function in this environment in
an effective and efficient manner. As clinicians we must appreciate and
consider the importance of integrating mobility and stability principles when
treating this population. The axial spine is the center of human movement and
has considerable influence on the functioning of both the upper and lower
extremities. This course takes an in depth look at the two most critical
components of human movement which include mobility and stability. Mobility in
this context is concerned with how people move and how movement impairments may
influence functional patterns. The other component of axial function is
stability. This concept refers to muscular control, strength and endurance
surrounding the axial spine, which facilitates functional power in a dynamic
environment. This hands on intensive course will teach you to properly assess
impaired movement patterns followed by treatment concepts focusing on corrective
strategies and other facilitation techniques to enhance the quality of
movement. These concepts are then integrated into a practical context so the
attendee can quickly incorporate them into a treatment plan designed for a
diverse patient population. Upon conclusion of the course participants will
have a solid understanding of how axial movement influences functional abilities
along with corrective strategies, which can improve outcomes.
CORE STABILIZATION FACILITATION AND TRAINING
TECHNIQUES COURSE OBJECTIVES
- Identify key anatomical structures and
principles as they relate to movement and stability of the axial spine
- Perform movement screening procedures for the
axial spine and determine how the results may influence movement patterns
- Perform and interpret assessments for motor
control and muscular endurance
- Develop a treatment plan for the primary
movement impairments associated with cervical/lumbar dysfunction
- Identify appropriate graded functional
training programs for return to activities.

William J. Hanney, PT, PhD, ATC/L, CSCS, MTC
is a clinician, researcher and educator who currently serves as an
instructor at the University of Central Florida School of Physical Therapy
where he teaches and conducts clinical research. Additionally, he maintains
a clinical practice at Brooks Rehabilitation. Dr. Hanney earned his
undergraduate degree from the University of West Florida for studies in Sports
Medicine/Athletic Training and his Master and Doctor of Physical Therapy degrees
at the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. He recently earned a
Ph.D. at Nova Southeastern University with research interests in the treatment
of cervicogenic pain. His clinical practice focuses on the treatment of
orthopedic conditions with a special interest in core stabilization and muscular
control. He is an experienced educator, clinician and author having
presented/published nationally in the areas of biomechanics, rehabilitation and
sports medicine. Dr Hanney maintains involvement in the APTA, the National
