Adjusting and Stabilizing the Lower Extremities 2025

Dr. Mark Charrette, a leading expert in extremity adjusting and a native Michigander, presents an in-depth look at the lower extremities. This course delves into the kinetic chain, fundamental lower extremity biomechanics, joint dysfunction, and common subluxation patterns. Attendees will learn specific adjustment protocols and rehabilitative exercises tailored for the foot, knee, and hip. This program offers valuable insights for practitioners seeking to enhance their skills in managing lower extremity conditions. Covering a range of topics from foundational biomechanics to practical adjustment techniques, it provides comprehensive knowledge to improve patient outcomes. The event is proudly sponsored by Foot Levelers.

• •Understand the kinetic chain concept and how dysfunction in one lower extremity joint affects proximal and distal structures
• •Apply fundamental biomechanics principles to assess foot, knee, and hip joint dysfunction and common subluxation patterns
• •Perform specific, evidence-based adjustment protocols for the foot, ankle, knee, and hip joints
• •Identify and correct movement compensations that contribute to lower extremity pathology
• •Implement targeted rehabilitative exercises to stabilize and restore function to lower extremity patients
• •Develop a systematic approach to lower extremity case management that integrates assessment, adjustment, and rehabilitation strategies
