Introduction

This subject includes practical and theoretical content related to the development and application of manual therapy techniques for the pelvis, spine and TMJ regions. The student will learn and improve abilities and skills to evaluate and treat joint, neural and muscular dysfunctions located in the pelvis, spine and TMJ regions. The course includes both manual and instrumental assessment and treatment methodologies.

Pre-course requirements

No prerequisites are specified.

Objectives

  1. To demonstrate palpatory skills in the identification of the different structures of the pelvis, spine and TMJ regions.
  2. To carry out an inspection of pelvis, spine and TMJ regions under load, both statically and dynamically, and interpret the findings.
  3. To perform and interpret the clinical tests necessary to assess the specific function of the physiological and anatomical joints of the pelvis, spine and TMJ regions {active and passive rotatory movements, translational movements of joint play, resisted movements, passive soft tissue movements [physiological and accessory movement, muscle and compartmental play)].
  4. To execute treatment techniques according to the therapeutic objective of pain modulation or function improvement.
  5. To know the clinical presentation of the most typical syndromes and clinical categories of the pelvis, spine and TMJ regions.

Competences/Learning outcomes of the degree programme

Teaching and learning activities

In person



  • TC (Theoretical classes): The teacher is the one who exposes in a systematic and orderly manner the information corresponding to the different subjects and the student has a role mainly as a receiver. The scenario in which the teacher transmits knowledge is the classroom and he does it to the entire group of students. The theoretical class format allows the introduction of group activities in the classroom and the development of strategies that encourage the active participation of students.
  • PC (Practical classes):  It includes any type of classroom and/or laboratory practice (practices among students, case studies, problems, activities in the computer room, search for information,...)
  • SLA (Self-learning activities: These activities are designed so that the student solves problems on their own with the help of the material provided and the information from the face-to-face activities and/or available in the virtual environment in which the online subjects are developed.
  • SIS (Student independent study): It is a process aimed at the formation of an autonomous student capable of learning to learn; It consists of developing study skills, establishing educational goals and objectives based on the recognition of the weaknesses and strengths of the individual, which will respond to the needs and expectations of each one. It implies the possibility that each student makes their own decisions in relation to the organization of their time and their learning pace, which is why it requires a high degree of responsibility to make the most of resources.Includes study of contents related to "theoretical classes" and "practices" (studying exams, carrying out individual and group theoretical work, library work, complementary reading, etc.).
  • MC (Master Class): Transmission of knowledge and activation of cognitive processes in the student.
  • CL (Cooperative learning): Development of active and significant learning cooperatively.
  • FL (Flipped learning): Systems based on new technologies as basic knowledge tools outside the classroom, so that when students arrive to class they put their ideas and impressions together, giving teachers the opportunity to personalize their instruction according to the needs of each one.
  • PBL (Problem based learning): Development of active learning through problem solving.
  • RP (Role playing): Transfer to the classroom of situations typical of reality that will serve the student to apply them in their future life.
