Comprehensive Treatment of the Foot and Ankle (Jun 6 - 7, 2026)

Comprehensive Treatment of the Foot and Ankle is organized by Great Lakes Seminars (GLS) and will be held from Jun 06 - 07, 2026 at Great Lakes Seminars, Toledo, Ohio, United States of America.

Description:
The foot is an area that’s commonly grazed over within academic curriculums. This course will provide you with a great foundation for how to evaluate and treat the most common foot diagnoses, even connecting the dots from dysfunctions elsewhere in the body that may influence the area. Come unravel the mystery of the foot through treatment of its joints, intrinsic muscles and fascia.

This course focuses on how to restore normal foot mechanics and take stress off of the soft tissues in the foot through manual techniques, taping and orthotic therapy. Manual therapy techniques covered include joint mobilizations and myofascial release/soft tissue mobilizations. You’ll also make a pair of temporary orthotics, utilizing a structural and functional approach that can be easily replicated on Monday morning.

Course Objectives:
At the completion of this seminar, the participant will be able to:

• Select the correct mobilization technique, myofascial technique, and correct taping based on a patient’s clinical presentation
• Demonstrate the correct hand technique and grading of joint mobilization for specific mobilizations
• Demonstrate specific techniques for MFR of the foot and lower extremity to treat foot and ankle dysfunctions
• Demonstrate specific techniques for taping of the foot and ankle
• Demonstrate treatment progressions for the foot and ankle
