I was in Brighton, CO this past weekend for theFunctional Momvement Systems seminar withBehnad Honarbakhsh.
The background and rational for the Functional Movement Screen and associated corrective exercises are excellent. Despite being the only chiropractor there, the functional movement analysis created by physical therapist Gray Cook fits seamlessly into my problem solving approach to injury and dysfunction. In the few days back at the office since the seminar, I have already started looking at patients differently and changing how I address their problems.
The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and Selective Functional Movement Analysis (SFMA) uses challenging movements that are meant to exaggerate deficits and asymmetry in the body. If the fundamental movement patterns in the body are altered, then any strength, power or sport specific training may be built upon a shaky foundation which at best will prevent optimal performance, and at worst reinforce imbalances leading to greater chance of injury.
