The Moving Foot + Body Workshop Material


10 Modules

Foot Static Assessment Overview

Mastering Foot Mechanics Workshop Outline: Static Assessment Section

This section of the Mastering Foot Mechanics Workshop focuses on guiding therapists through the foundational elements of static assessment. Participants will develop a systematic approach to observing and interpreting the foot’s static alignment. The section lays the groundwork for understanding the foot’s anatomical structures, interactions, and positions, setting the stage for dynamic assessments and mobilisation techniques.

Foot Movements Overview

Mastering Foot Mechanics Workshop Outline: Movement Assessment Section

The Movement Assessment section focuses on guiding therapists through the dynamic evaluation of foot mechanics. Participants will learn to analyse movement across the ankle, rearfoot, forefoot, and phalanges, while understanding how these segments interact dynamically within the columns of the foot. This section builds on static assessment and introduces the principles of movement in three planes, offering practical tools for assessing functional mechanics during gait and other dynamic activities.

Learning Outcomes for the Movement Assessment Section

By the end of this section, participants will:

1. Have a comprehensive understanding of foot anatomy and its role in dynamic movement.

2. Be able to assess individual foot segments and their contributions to movement.

3. Use appropriate terminology to describe movement in three planes.

4. Identify and name specific movements and deviations from normal mechanics.

5. Confidently apply practical techniques to assess dynamic foot mechanics in clients.

This section provides therapists with the tools to assess movement patterns effectively, paving the way for targeted interventions using mobilisation techniques and movement relationship strategies.

Self Movement Analysis

Mastering Foot Mechanics Workshop Outline: Self-Assessment Section

The Self-Assessment section focuses on empowering therapists to explore their own movement patterns and foot mechanics. This self-exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how their body moves, allowing them to refine their observational and assessment skills for client work. Through practical exercises, therapists will assess key movements and identify compensations, imbalances, or restrictions in their own biomechanics.

Learning Outcomes for the Self-Assessment Section

By the end of this section, participants will:

1. Understand the principles of self-assessment and its relevance to foot mechanics.

2. Perform key movement assessments on themselves to explore and identify compensations or imbalances.

3. Develop a deeper awareness of how the feet interact with the rest of the body during functional movements.

4. Use personal insights to enhance their observational skills and apply them effectively to client assessments.

This section lays the foundation for therapists to connect personal experience with clinical practice, enhancing both their understanding and their ability to teach movement principles to clients.

Foot Mobilisation Techniques

Mastering Foot Mechanics Workshop Outline: Foot Mobilisation Techniques

The Foot Mobilisation Techniques section provides therapists with a comprehensive approach to restoring optimal foot mechanics. This section focuses on targeted mobilisation of specific foot segments and joints, using the results of the dynamic assessment to guide intervention. Therapists will learn practical techniques to improve joint mobility, alignment, and overall foot function.

Learning Outcomes for the Foot Mobilisation Techniques Section

By the end of this section, participants will:

1. Understand the role of each foot segment and joint in overall foot mechanics.

2. Perform targeted mobilisation techniques to restore function and alignment in specific areas of the foot.

3. Use dynamic assessment findings to prioritise joints requiring mobilisation.

4. Integrate broad segment approaches with joint-specific techniques for comprehensive foot care.

5. Develop confidence in applying mobilisation techniques to improve client outcomes.

This section equips therapists with the skills to address both general and specific foot dysfunctions, enhancing their ability to restore optimal foot mechanics in clients.
