Learn from expert Ian Horsley and begin to understand where the limits of your shoulder practice can grow to unlock your potential as a clinician.

Shoulders are complex structures and can cause confusion in clinical practice. Just thinking about the muscles, the number is immense and intimidating, and that doesn't even take into account the 17 attached to the shoulder blade. This makes it difficult to interpret clinical thinking and understanding what you are seeing. But fear not, we have some excellent new courses as part of our new shoulder program designed to help you cut the complexity straight down to the most common pathology to look out for in your clinical practice.

The courses in the program

This course consists of 3 courses, each of which is as good as the next. All created by Ian Horsley.

Functional disorder of the sternoclavicular joint
The sternoclavicular joint is the only skeletal articulation between the axial skeleton and the upper extremity. Despite its importance, it is often ignored in physiotherapeutic assessment and management of shoulder pain. Minor dysfunction of the sternoclavicular joint can result in severe dysfunction and pain in the shoulder and arm. This course covers the anatomy, biomechanics, assessment and management of the sternoclavicular joint.

Subacromial Space Impact – Space Invaders
The shoulder is one of the most complex regions of the body that needs to be rehabilitated. One of the most common causes of shoulder pain is the dreaded shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS). Dr. Ian Horsley, understood as a mechanism rather than a diagnosis, examines this often misunderstood classification of shoulder pain and outlines the underlying anatomical considerations as well as the best rehabilitation strategies for clinical practice. This course is ideal for any clinician who wants to better understand shoulder biomechanics and effectively identify and manage the different types of shoulder loads.
