DPT 510 - Clinical Biomechanics I


4 credit(s)
DPT 510 and DPT 511  are designed to provide the student with the biomechanical and histological basis for understanding normal and pathological movement. All of DPT 510 and part of DPT 511  are organized by anatomical region, and although each region is discussed as a unit, every effort is made to illustrate continuities among regions. The discussion of each region includes sections on normal biomechanics and the application of biomechanics to pathological motion. Each section incorporates units on goniometry, muscle testing, stretching, design of exercise programs and palpation. The remainder of DPT 511  covers posture, scoliosis, and gait analysis
