FDM Level 1 Module 1 Course; May 13 – 15, 2011 Fascial Distortion Model Level 1 Module 1 Course Des Moines University, Des Moines, IA May 13-15, 2011 Purpose The purpose of the program is to have the attendees participate in a fascial distortion model (FDM) Level 1 module. The FDM is an anatomical perspective in which the underlying etiology of virtually every musculoskeletal injury is considered to be comprised of one or more of six specific pathological alterations of the body's connecting tissues (fascial bands, ligaments, tendons, retinacula, etc.). This model not only allows for strikingly effective manipulative treatments for diverse afflictions such as pulled muscles, sprained ankles and frozen shoulders, but the results are objective, obvious, measurable, and immediate. In the manipulative practice of the FDM (known as Typaldos manual therapy, or TMT), each injury is envisioned through the treatment. Then the subjective complaints, body language, mechanism of injury, and objective findings are woven together to create a meaningful diagnosis that has practical applications. For instance, in contrast to the orthopedic model in which a sprained ankle is rested so torn ligaments can heal, in the FDM approach, the specific anatomical distortions of the capsule, ligaments, or surrounding fascia are physically reversed. Therefore, the anatomical injury no longer exists, and the patient can walk without a limp and is pain free. Thus the typical sequence of orthopedic interventions obligatorily prescribed (resting, ice, compression, elevation, antiinflammatory drugs, and crutches) is no longer considered clinically relevant. Target Audience Attending physicians, mid-levels with a sponsoring physician attending the course, selected medical students and selected residents. Objectives Upon conclusion of this program, learners will be able to: Define the fascial distortion model Define each of the six principal types of fascial distortions. Recognize and properly identify the body language for each of the six principal types of fascial distortions. Think and diagnose shoulder, knee and ankle injuries using the fascial distortion model. Learn verbal skills in order to be able to easily articulate to patients and other doctors what you are doing. Correct the first sprained ankle clinically encountered after this seminar. Effectively treat the next acutely sore shoulder seen in the office. Primary Lecturer Todd Capistrant, D.O. Hands-on Instructors Todd Capistrant, D.O., Gene Lenard, D.O., and Marjorie Kasten, P.T.

  • Ankle Sprains: Assessment
    Adopted: 2/1/16 Ankle Sprains: Assessment Background Ankle sprains are among the most common musculoskeletal injuries seen by health care providers. It is estimated that in the United States one in every 10,000 people sprains an ankle every hour, totaling nearly 30,000 ankle sprains per day. The incidence rates of ankle sprain range from 2.15 per 1000 person-years in the general population to 58.4 per 1000 person- years in physically active populations. They account for up to 40% of all athletic injuries and over half of the injuries occurring in basketball alone. Ankle sprains are also commonly seen in athletes participating in soccer, football, running and dance. (Prado 2014, Chan 2011, Waterman 2010) Despite the high prevalence and severity of lifestyle-limiting symptoms that follow the injury, ankle sprains are often regarded as benign injuries that will resolve on their own and therefore many people who suffer ankle sprains do not seek treatment from a healthcare provider. The incidence of residual symptoms following an acute ankle sprain varies, but has been reported with rates of between 40% and 50%. It is also reported that as many as 20% of acute ankle sprains develop chronic ankle instability (Chan, 2011). Ankle sprains in sport may result in varying degrees of debilitation including decreased performance, absence from competition and adverse psychological effects. Ankle sprains also have high economic costs associated with the diagnosis and treatment of the injury and loss of work productivity. It has been reported that one quarter of all people who sustain an ankle sprain are unable to attend school or work for more than 7 days following the initial injury .

  • Sports-Related Injuries Can Occur As the Result of a Single Traumatic Event, Such As an Impact Or Fall, Or from Repeated Overuse
    COMMON SPORTS INJURIES Sports-related injuries can occur as the result of a single traumatic event, such as an impact or fall, or from repeated overuse and strain on muscles, tendons, and/or ligaments. Here are a few of the most common sports injuries. BICEPS FEMORIS (LONG HEAD) PULLING YOUR LEG Strains and sprains make up the bulk of sports injuries. Strains happen when muscles or SEMITENDINOSUS tendons are overstretched or torn - if someone has a pulled muscle, that means they have a muscle strain. The most commonly strained muscles are the hamstrings. SEMIMEMBRANOSUS Strains are best prevented by proper stretching, strengthening, and proper warm-ups before athletic activity. 2 SPRAIN, SPRAIN GO AWAY ANTERIOR TALOFIBULAR LIGAMENT Sprains happen when ligaments (PARTIALLY TORN) are overstretched or torn. Sprained ankles often happen when a fall or awkward landing from a jump forces the ankle joint to move in an unusual way, stressing or possibly tearing the ligaments surrounding it. Walking, running, or jumping on an uneven surface can also cause a sprained ankle. Stretching, strengthening, and balance exercises (as well as supportive footwear) can help reduce the risk of ankle sprains. 3 YOU’RE FEMUR TEARING ME APART! Many other muscles, tendons, and ligaments frequently tear. ACL (anterior cruciate ligament tears tend to happen in sports that put stress on the knees through jumping, sudden stops, and rapid changes in direction.

  • ANKLE SPRAIN Home Exercises
    ANKLE SPRAIN Home Exercises An ankle sprain occurs when the strong ligaments that support the ankle stretch beyond their limits and tear. Ankle sprains are common injuries that occur among people of all ages. They range from mild to severe, depending on how much damage there is to the ligament(s). Most sprains are minor injuries that heal with home treatments, like rest and applying ice. However, if your ankle is very swollen and painful to walk on, or if you are having trouble putting weight on your ankle at all, be sure to see your doctor. Without proper treatment and rehabilitation, a more severe sprain can weaken your ankle—making it more likely that you will injure it again. Repeated ankle sprains can lead to long-term problems, including chronic ankle pain, arthritis, and ongoing instability. Normal anatomy of the foot and ankle An ankle sprain is an injury to one or more of the ligaments that stabilize the ankle. A twisting force to the lower leg or foot can cause a sprain. The lateral ligaments on the outside of the ankle are injured most frequently. Description Ligaments are strong, fibrous tissues that connect bones to other bones. The ligaments in the ankle help to keep the bones in proper position and stabilize the joint. Sprains can range from tiny tears in the fibers that make up the ligament to complete tears through the tissue. If there is a complete tear of the ligament, the ankle may become unstable after the initial injury phase passes. Over time, this instability can result in damage to the bones and cartilage of the ankle joint.

  • Sprained Ankle Introduction
    Sprained Ankle Introduction A sprain occurs when a ligament connecting bones or cartilage is ruptured or torn. Quick and proper care can ensure the road to a safe and moderately quick return to activity without chronic setbacks. Signs and Symptoms A first-degree sprain has minimal swelling and discoloration. Ligaments are stretched but not torn. A second-degree sprain involves partial tearing of the ligament, increased pain, swelling, discoloration, and instability. A third-degree sprain indicates that the fibers are torn completely, causing gross instability of the ankle as well as discoloration, pain, and much swelling. Treatment Mild sprains may be treated at home by following the “RICE” procedure. Rest: It is important to stay off the ankle as much as possible to allow it to heal. Ice: The ankle needs to be iced for 15 to 20 minutes using crushed ice cubes or a package of frozen vegetables. A layer of material may be used between the ice and the ankle. Use ice for 20 minutes and then off for 45 minutes until bedtime. Resume ice on the second day as needed. Compression: Remove ice and wrap ankle with elastic ace bandage. Elevation: Keep the ankle above the heart when resting at home. Avoid use of the injured ankle by using crutches as soon as possible. Taking time to let your sprained ankle heal will help prevent further pain and injury. You can walk on the ankle as soon as it feels comfortable. More severe sprains should be seen by a physician or nurse practitioner. You may be referred to a physical therapist where they will implement progressive exercises.
