ISOMT's Beyond the SLR: The Definition and Physiology of Neural Tension/Radiculopathy
Course Overview
Course Description
In this comprehensive 1-hour lecture, participants will explore the intricacies of neural tension and radiculopathy, moving beyond traditional assessments like the Straight Leg Raise (SLR) test. The session covers the physiological mechanisms underlying neural tension, providing clinicians with a deeper understanding of its impact on the nervous system.
Evidence-based guidelines for various neurodynamic tests, stages of nerve tension, and treatment techniques are discussed, along with practical case studies offering real-world applications of the concepts.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
-
Define neural tension and radiculopathy, understanding their physiological basis.
-
Identify and apply evidence-based neurodynamic tests to assess nerve tension.
-
Recognize the stages of nerve tension and their clinical implications.
-
Implement effective treatment techniques to manage neural tension and radiculopathy.
-
Analyze and apply knowledge through real-world case studies.
