The course

Applied Kinesiology & Nerve Entrapment:
AK that is fun to learn and logical to apply!

This practical three-day AK seminar is a must for any practitioner wishing to go deeper in their ability to find and treat common nerve entrapment problems in the upper and lower extremity.

As George Goodheart said "You can�t recognize what you do not know" and "You don�t know what you don�t know until you know what you didn�t know"

This course will help you uncover hidden problems that are only revealed through dynamic examination. We will explore in detail the cascade of muscle weakness from hidden causes, such as reactive muscles, through strain counter strain to fascial and gait problems. Various nerve entrapment syndromes will be explored in detail, enabling you to more easily uncover numerous hidden problems with confidence.

You will learn to put any patient through a detailed screen to find what is, initially, hidden from view.

Specialist courses such as this one help bring all the wealth of information & materials in AK together...Clive puts the material together & teaches it in an easy to understand way so that it can be used back in the consulting room on Monday morning.: ~ R Michael Basset D.C.

Your lecturer

A very approachable style of teaching-in fact the most student friendly course I have attended: ~ T Waite D.C. M.C.S. P.

Clive Lindley-Jones B.Ed. (Hons) D.O. D.I.B.A.K.

Registered with the General Osteopathic Council

Diplomate of the International Board of Applied Kinesiology

Diploma in Tranpersonal Psychotherapy

NLP Trainer & Coach

Committee member of the Sunflower Trust (Charity #1055712)

Clive Lindley-Jones B.Ed (Hons) D.O. D.I.B.A.K. is a registered osteopath, a qualified teacher and holds diplomas in Psychotherapy and Neuro Linguistic Programming.

He has been teaching for over 30 years in both Europe and Japan. For over 10 years he was on the faculty of the European School of Osteopathy where, amongst other things, he taught Functional Anatomy and Palpation into which he was instrumental in introducing advanced muscle testing. He has taught both the basic hundred-hour I.C.A.K. course as well as advanced courses in the U.K., Belgium, Holland and Germany.

He is the author of a number of papers on AK and orthopaedic problems published in the AK literature as well as being co-trainer of the Sunflower method for helping children with learning difficulties.

There's no escape from the application of sound anatomical knowledge and being able to visualize it dynamically. Clive gave us logical steps to unravelling a recurrent problem, thereby helping to decrease that frustration, where you know here must be a good reason, but you can't reach it. The course gave me a kick up the b... to integrate much of the material immediately. I just thoroughly enjoyed my whole weekend & felt refreshed, encouraged and have used a huge amount of the material straight away Thank you Clive.: ~ Patricia Waite D.C. M.C.S.P.

Clive should certainly be congratulated on putting together such an excellent course covering many of the common orthopaedic problems we see in practice every day... The course notes had been carefully researched and clearly written with plenty of flow diagrams to act as aide-memoirs back in the practice. Applied Kinesiology has a great deal to offer, especially for dealing with difficult or recurring problems. The most important thing for me, however, was that it can be easily integrated into standard Osteopathic practice. I do not hesitate to commend this course to anyone who wishes to improve their skill and effectiveness as a practitioner.: ~ Ralph W Sutton D.O.

Useful material for the office on Monday onwards, both new and old, good revision reinforcement.

The genral camaraderie and good group feeling, the generous sharing of knowledge and ideas in a non-competitive atmosphere � immensely refreshing. Thankyou!: ~ Helen Hooper, DC

Horizon expanding: A very refreshing course for the practice: ~ Dr. Goldam G.P.

Informative � how to find hidden problems. This course will improve your technique at evaluating the shoulder complex and LBXT.: ~ Anthony Ryman, BOst

This training is absolutely essential. It means I have access to structured and orderly methods of examination of specific problem areas. Therefore in application I have confidence that my examination will have been thorough. I value the opportunity of working with experienced osteopaths who give invaluable feedback v.v. muscle testing skills etc, and also add little insights and observations which takes information off the page and into reality. It has felt a genuinely rounded experience: clarity of presentation, a sense of shared enthusiasm, and excitement about the subject. Laughter, good humour and tolerance, peppered with good-natured irreverence.: ~ Olivia Maxwel, Lic Ac

Very practical� deepening of knowledge of structural problems: ~ G.P.

It has reignited my enthusiasm for the structural aspect of AK and reminded me of things I can use again that I have maybe not been making available to myself. Very comprehensive and user-friendly. (A great course) if you work with the structure and want to really understand the whys and wherefores and what can go wrong. Clive has infectious joy!: ~ Matt Bourne, DO

It has reinforced a lot of my AK techniques. I have re-learnt much of what I had forgotten. This AK course is the most practical osteopathic course that I know.: ~ David Gutteridge, DO, Lic Ac

Good for going over basic evaluation techniques and treatment techniques. Good sense of humour!: ~ Anon

It has helped me understand the structural problems we have, what causes them and how to rectify them. It has been very useful to me and as I am a slow learner am looking forward to the second time. With a bit of practice, your methods will be under my belt. I particularly appreciated the instructor�s understanding of the material.: ~ Anon

Learnable� with a lot of practical relevance: ~ G.P.

I enjoyed this weekend thoroughly! Information very reliable and succinct. I love flow charts. Distinguish muscle testing better to explain syndromes, good quality muscle testing! This course explains the syndromes better i.e femoral nerve entrapment � psoas strong quads weak. I particularly appreciated those few nuggets of clinical experience that saves me from experimenting. The analogies were great!: ~ Daniel Cheung, BSc, DC
