Knee Pain

Compensation patterns in the three planes

Sagittal
Frontal
Transverse

Postural stabilization is done at the subconscious level.

Compensation is a movement adaptation that is learned at a subconscious level

Rehabilitation uses conscious cues to repattern a movement and restore normal stabilization (glute bridge, wobble board, single leg exercises)

Compensation in the sagittal plane

Gluteal amnesia and quad dominance

Weak glutes, tight hip flexors, overactive rectus femoris, weak vastus medialis tight lateralis, tight calves, weak psoas, tight sartorius

Compensation in the frontal plane

Lateral stabilization subsystem

IT band syndrome weak gmed with overactive TFL gmin (all weak)

Valgus knee - tight adductors, weak ankle stabilization weak abductors

Compensation in the transverse plane

Posterior sling weak glutes tight lats

Anterior sling weak abs, tight adductors

Part 1 - Review of Anatomy and Muscle Testing in 3 Planes of Movement

We organized this webinar into 3 planes of movement which are important for elite athletes and will help to sort out issues for any of your patients.

Part 1- Motor Point Acupuncture for Knee Pain

Part 2 - Treatment of the Posterior Chain using Motor Point Acupuncture

This is Dan's protocol for treating the posterior chain in elite athletes.

Just the videos in HD for Viewing on a Big Screen

These videos are especially great on a big screen when you can appreciate the HD quality.

They are the same videos as in the webinar but without the presentation and dialogue.
