Anatomy of Gait

Three-part course
with Dr. Kathy Dooley

Gait analysis can be a real challenge in clinical practice. In this course, Kathy makes use of the Anatomy of Movement Subsystems to break down gait analysis, making it simpler to know where to start with a client to help with their gait.

Knowing where to start in your gait analysis is usually the hardest part, as all phase issues can spill into the next gait phase. But a full understanding of the anatomy of three major phases provides the practitioner with the greater picture.

Kathy introduces us to the Movement Subsystems of Triplanar Movement (sagittal, frontal, and transverse) to break down each phase and give palpation, assessment and corrective advice based on each plane.

This course is suitable for therapists, instructors, teachers and practitioners of all modalities.. You do not need to be a practitioner to enroll, but a passionate interest in human movement is essential.
