Osteopathy in Motion Rebalancing the Lower Kinetic Chain
About Course
🗓 One-Day Workshop – May 3, 2026
Course Overview
Movement begins from the ground up — and dysfunctions in the lower kinetic chain often lead to compensations throughout the body. In this one-day workshop, you’ll explore how osteopathic principles and techniques can restore balance and efficiency to the feet, ankles, knees, hips, and pelvis — the critical components of the lower kinetic chain.
This course focuses on dynamic assessment strategies and osteopathic treatments aimed at restoring proper biomechanics, enhancing functional movement, and relieving pain. Whether your patients are athletes, desk workers, or post-surgical, restoring lower chain balance is key to long-term improvement.
What You’ll Learn:
-
How to assess and identify imbalances in the lower kinetic chain
-
Osteopathic motion testing of the feet, ankles, knees, hips, and pelvis
-
Understanding kinetic chain compensation patterns and their effects on posture and gait
-
Manual techniques for:

Foot and ankle mobility
-
Knee tracking issues
-
Hip rotation restrictions
-
Pelvic alignment imbalances
-
-
Strategies to integrate lower chain rebalancing into full-body osteopathic treatment plans
