DNS “A” Course & Certification Summary:

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization according to Kolar (DNS) | A Developmental Kinesiology Approach
Improve understanding of the basic principles of developmental kinesiology, emphasizing development during the first year of life.
Identify and describe critical milestones in human development.
Introduce the three levels of sensorimotor control in functional assessment and treatment.
Demonstrate the relationship between development during the first year of life and pathology of the locomotor system in adulthood.
Introduce new terminologies pertinent to rehabilitation, such as functional joint centration, punctum fixum, punctum mobile and the integrated stabilizing system of the spine.
Define ideal postural stabilization from a developmental perspective: intra-abdominal pressure regulation, the dual role of the diaphragm in stabilization and respiration, and stabilization via co-contraction.
Identify common stereotypes of faulty postural stabilization (“open scissors syndrome,” forward drawn posture, backward drawn posture, “hourglass syndrome”).
Explain and demonstrate biomechanics of undifferentiated, ipsilateral and contralateral postural-locomotion patterns; closed and opened kinematic chains, stepping forward and supporting function.
Evaluate and correct poor respiratory patterns.
Demonstrate the correlation between poor respiration patterns and functional pathology of the locomotor system.
Assess the integrated stabilizing system of the spine visually and by utilizing dynamic functional tests.
Integrate corrective exercises based on the DNS functional tests and developmental positions: exercise in undifferentiated static positions; position transfer during locomotor function; exercise progression using unstable surfaces; increased difficulty of the exercises utilizing resistance, dual tasking and other challenges.
Clarify how DNS corrective exercises can integrate with other exercise strategies.
Cover the basics of the application of the DNS concept in sports training.
Provide essential clinical management explanations for clinicians to better integrate the DNS approach in their regular practice, including patient education.
Optimally prepare students for the next level of training (Course “B”).

A Certificate of ATTENDANCE will be awarded by local instructor
