AOA Seminar: Contractile Fields - A New Model of Human Movement by Dr Philip Beach
Date: 17 - 18 March 2012
Venue: Rendezvous Hotel Melbourne, 328 Flinders Street, Melbourne
This workshop will offer a new approach to the assessment and treatment of endemic low back pain via Archetypal postures of repose, allied with exercises that are derived from the floor to standing transition - the Erectorcises.
Context for the workshop will emerge from three perspectives.
The first perspective is evolutionary via a brief account of the vertebrate transition from the lateral undulating of a fish to a walking bipedal ape.
The second perspective looks at the embryology of musculoskeletal development, and the subsequent childhood development towards walking and running.
The third perspective is anthropological - all people, all cultures, across all time frames have found ease and rest on the floor, and maintained the strength to erect from the floor throughout their lives.
How to assess and facilitate ease in the floor postures and how to erect from the floor with good form and safety will be demonstrated in the workshop with the participants themselves adopting the postures.
