2025 Essentials of Spinal Manipulation Program

This course is designed to provide the essential knowledge and skill for clinicians to have a basic understanding of the safe delivery of spinal and sacroiliac manipulation techniques and to introduce the more complex junctional techniques for the spine. Participants will be instructed in manipulation techniques that are not end range and which utilise minimal leverages to achieve cavitation. Emphasis will be placed on patient comfort, correct operator posture, developing thrust speed and minimising amplitude when the manipulative impulse is applied. A number of Clinical Practice Guidelines relating to the treatment of spinal pain and dysfunction promote a multimodal approach to treatment and recommend consideration of the treatment option combining mobilisation, manipulation and exercise. Participants completing this course will gain the necessary manipulative skills to safely treat patients with spinal pain and dysfunction which will enable them to use these Clinical Practice Guidelines when determining the most appropriate treatment for their patients.
