An introduction to the concepts
and applications of the McKenzie
Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy® focusing on the lumbar
spine. Principle format is lecture,
discussion and live patient demonstrations.
Effective January 2012, Part A will begin
with a new comprehensive
online session, followed
by a three day live course.
Having an online component
allows you to work at your
own convenience and learn
from an interactive blend
of visuals, audio and video,
but still participate in
the live course
that is so integral to the
McKenzie educational programming.
