The Key Approach

The Key Approach Method is a functional model of manual and movement therapy that helps explain how altered movement patterns underlie clinical pain presentations. The Key Approach provides a simple classification system to help understand a patient's problems and guides manual and movement therapy treatments. Developed from over 40 years of clinical experience, the approach distills the evidence but returns the focus to the foundations of movement. My aim in sharing this knowledge is to help support and inspire you as clinicians to more effectively treat your clients, and find the magic in being a better practitioner. More importantly I hope that this model helps you to understand your own body, steers you away from pain and dysfunction so that you can truly give yourself to the practice of caring for others.
