This course will teach you how to assess and treat pain related to the hip joint, caused by excessive or inadequate accessory motion of the femur. You will learn how to identify faulty femur alignment, movement patterns, and muscle imbalances by analyzing patient movement. You will learn how to use components of the movement system to classify patients with femoral movement faults and pain. Based on movement classifications, you will utilize corrective exercises to restore optimal patient movement.

Chapters & learning objectives
1. Introduction and Patient Case: Angela
This chapter describes the background and history of Shirley Sahrmann and colleagues, the developers of the movement system impairment (MSI) model. You will then learn how to integrate the MSI model into the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model to create a comprehensive model for therapy practice. You will analyze a patient’s posture and movement while learning how to utilize symptom modification procedures (SMPs) to correct for excessive femoral anterior glide. You will determine how mobility and muscle performance deficits influence the patient’s posture and movement. You will then use the movement system to create a comprehensive intervention plan to reduce excessive femoral anterior glide.
2. Patient Case: Erika
This chapter will use a patient case to introduce a syndrome of femoral accessory multidirectional hypermobility. You will analyze the patient’s posture and movement while learning how to utilize SMPs to correct for excessive glenohumeral multidirectional hypermobility. You will determine how mobility and muscle performance influence the patient’s posture and movement. You will then use the movement system to create a comprehensive intervention plan to improve femoral accessory hypermobility.
3. Patient Case: Mike
This chapter will use a patient case to introduce a syndrome of femoral hypomobility with superior glide. You will analyze the patient’s posture and movement while learning how to utilize SMPs to correct for excessive glenohumeral multidirectional hypermobility. You will determine how mobility and muscle performance influence the patient’s posture and movement. You will then use the movement system to create a comprehensive intervention plan to improve femoral hypomobility with superior glide.
