Course Description

This course is designed to prepare students for evaluating and treating the running athlete. This course includes an overview of foot and ankle mechanics, lower quarter strength and flexibility examination, application of the Functional Movement ScreenTM, and use of Video Analysis to identify relevant pathomechanics observed during running. Students are introduced to the clinical setting by evaluating patients in the context of a simulated running clinic, prior to participating in the student-led, Columbia RunLabTM clinic. Here they engage in clinical reason discussions and advise runners on exercise programs and improvements to running form. Students participate in training sessions required for the clinic including HIPPA and Blood-borne Pathogens training.
