The small group makes the social part quite relaxed, a sauna, a dip in the Baltic Sea and a nice evening dinner.
Learn how to assess and treat spinal sagittal imbalance using the CTR concept
The CTR introduction courses are advancing. Today we describe CTR in a bio-tensegrity context. It is a close and precise study of fascial distortion between motion segments. We teach how to use the thorax kinetic chain model to assess spinal sagittal balance. Back pain originating from spinal sagittal imbalance is the leading cause of disability worldwide. Sagittal balance is a complex entity that up until now only has been assessed radiographically.
