Objective

Students are able to describe the function of joints by applying osteokinematics and arthokinematics. Students know how to observe and analyse movement chains as a premise for osteopathic examination and treatment. Students observe and analyse the functionality of the musculoskeletal system related to posture and movement. Students are able to describe biomechanics by applying balance control and movement. Students understand the biomechanical approach in osteopathy. Students are familiar with biomechanical equipments and basics of gait analysis.
