Dr Shah is the world's leading expert on Central Sensitisation and Myofascial Pain.
As we are always striving to bring you the very best in educational experiences, we just couldn't bring you this course without including a specialised program from Dr Shah.
Listen and watch over 2 hours of in depth explanations, animations and clinical examples of how hip and pelvic pain is linked to or causes central sensitisation, and what you can do about it.
Your presenter and course creator...
Hi, I am Bodine Ledden, Assistant Director of Advanced Clinical Education, Clinician, course creator and passionate hip and pelvis enthusiast!
It has been my mission for several years to develop a comprehensive and logical course for the hip and pelvis designed specifically for the clinician. My goal was to create a course that I wish I could have completed.
I have constructed this course to provide the key insights to the anatomy and morphology of the hip, through to pathomechanics, screening, assessment and manual therapy treatment, complimented with exercise planning and prescription. The clinical applicability will allow you to gather a comprehensive history, rule out serious pathology and produce an accurate diagnosis, then direct the most effective treatment intervention to help you, help even more people.

REVIEW
After completing the ACE Hip and Pelvis course presented by Bo, I have been amazed by the quality of the information provided. It has filled gaps in my knowledge that I was previously unaware of for an area of the body that is such a high clinical presentation.
The information provided is given a great amount of relevance to practice, along with helpful commentaries of what other pathologies, screening assessments and types of treatments to consider.
I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to provide their clients with thorough, precise treatments and effective outcomes. Dalton Y.
REVIEW
The hip & pelvis course was so incredibly thorough to anything I have ever completed. There is a blend of videos, research and activities for all learning types which kept me engaged in the content. I have been able to implement the learnings into my clinic and understand the hip anatomy and conditions so much better after this course." Tessa V
