2. Treatment
This chapter focuses on Functional Mobilization evaluation and treatment techniques directed at the pelvic girdle. Gregg Johnson demonstrates FMT approach for the management the mechanical, neuromuscular and motor control impairments of the coccyx, sacrum, and innominates.
3. Re-assessment and Postural Training
This chapter demonstrates a brief re-assessment of the patient, incorporating the same tests (with split screen shots of before and after) from the assessment phase in chapter two to demonstrate the patient’s progress.
