3. evaluate and Treat the Tarsals & Lower leg

Targeted evaluation and rehabilitation treatment strategies for dysfunctions impacted by the tarsals and lower leg.

The foot is the base of support for the entire body. The lower leg will affect the foot. Dysfunctions, restrictions, and misalignment in these area affect the whole body, particularly the forefoot, knees, hips and lower back. The severity and pathology of every knee injury is directly related to the integrity of the foot and lower leg. Most forefoot dysfunctions, such as bunions, hallux limitus, and turf toe, originate here too. The course's evaluation component employs a functional diagnosis technique to pinpoint the treatment area and identify the root cause of dysfunction. The treatment aspect involves release, realignment, and reinforcement. Tarsals and lower leg movement occur in three planes, and this course teaches tri-planar, specific, active/functional releases. Using functional positions in the closed chain with active movement patterns, ensures quicker patient outcomes.
Realigning incorporates taping/strapping techniques using Dynamic Tape, Kinesiotape, and Leukotape to protect joints, align structures, and influence muscle facilitation and inhibition for enhanced carry over.
Reinforcement includes proprioceptive neuromuscular re-education (PNF) and functional exercises that mimic muscle's contraction and movements for ADLs, sports, and dance.
The methods in this course significantly enhance efficiency and effectiveness in treating orthopedic diagnoses of the toes, ankles, knees, hips, and lower back.

Includes 1 year of access to online content & a Lab/Case Studies/Q&A session recordings and the ability to earn continuing education/professional units.

Your program really made a difference!

The quality of my life has changed.

"DL Walker has been amazing. She patiently listened to my problems and was very interested in evaluating me and getting to the root of my foot pain. She tailored a program that would work for me and continued to update my plan as I progressed. I have seen significant improvement and the quality of my life has changed. I have seen a significant reduction in pain and I have changed my footwear, so I continue to see progress. I am able to take the ideas she has taught me and head off problems now as they arise. Thank you DL!"

I’ve found the absolute best therapist that can help me with getting my body back in perfect harmony.

"I went to DL Walker in to help me with realigning my foot, which had been in a cast for months from a previous knee surgery. She immediately knew what to do, and went to work on foot. She then had me use a different taping method and I continued to improve with my balance and the realigning of my foot. Thank you so much, DL Walker for your knowledge and expertise."
