The treatment of the Pelvis is the foundation of Osteopathic care. This course will examine the 22 major axes (plural) movements of the pelvis. The course set out to explore and develop knowledge of a wide range of manual processing related to structural, functional, fascial and viscera along the axis (singular).
These complex methodologies are based on a tensegritive model of biomechanics. If these methods are not applied correctly, the therapist becomes ineffective and can put the patient/client at risk. For example, an incorrectly adjusted sacrum may induce a strain in the utero-ovarian ligament, potentially resulting in female infertility.
Over the course of 5 seminars (4 days each) we will explore in detail lesion mechanics, as well as the precise diagnostic tests before any correction.
Each seminar is dependent on one another. The practitioner will acquire a large number of applicable techniques for use in their clinic (photos of techniques and description will be distributed at the end of each seminar). The practical portion of the course will include demonstrations and practice treatment sessions to control the pelvis.
Course outline:
General: the pelvis and its orthopedic importance
Statement of the 22 major axes of the pelvis: description, injury mechanisms, visceral and orthopedic functional implications, etc.
Oblique Axis and dependent considerations: description, injury mechanisms; orthopedic and visceral implications, functional, etc.
Tests of the axes
Articular pumping of the joints and the normalization of all the ligaments of the pelvis.
Structural normalization of the oblique axes.
Application: clinical cases.

Guy VOYER, DO is convinced it is necessary to return to teaching osteopathy in a non-complacent way; his approach respects traditional methods, but also takes into account progress made since Still’s time.
Here are some examples:
There is more and more talk of “holistic” global and interactive medicine, and we forget to apply the philosophy of complexity to teaching, practice and diagnostic and therapeutic methodology. Osteopathy is first and foremost a philosophy which is worth teaching and understanding.
The mobility of bodily fluids is due to the constant pressure and aspiration exercised by the four principal diaphragms of the human body; however, one must know how to treat them.
Still is the father of Osteopathy. He said, “Structure controls function”. It is, therefore, necessary to master with precision all adjustments needed for structural normalization.
More and more illnesses are due to hormone disorders (especially in women); however, one must know how to treat hormone chains.
Since Little John, we now know the importance of the sympathetic system in osteopathy; however, one must know how to control it.
Sutherland made extraordinary inroads with respect to cranial work; 80 years later, in order to avoid any esotericism, one must control the anatomy and biomechanics of the cranium’s bones and membranes.
All training programs stress the fasciae’s anatomy, biomechanics, physiology as well as their role and function.
