Welcome to Movement Lab Academy where we provide professional development courses for allied health care professionals.
APPLIED PRIMITIVE PATTERNS COURSE
Applied Primitive Patterns, developed by Matthew Lynagh APA Titled Sports & Musculoskeletal Physio and is based on 'Original Strength' & 'Thomas Myers Anatomy Trains concepts.
Matt breaks down the 7 fundamental human hardwired core patterns and teaches you how to use them to assess, diagnose movement dysfunction and effectively create a unique treatment plan for your clients that present with any complex and/or long term movement complication.
This unique technique allows you to get to the root cause and finally give them relief with long term results.
This course challenges traditional treatment methodologies and is for those allied health care professional and students who are looking for an 'out of the box' thinking PD course that will give them an advantage when dealing with complex clients.
APPLIED PRIMITIVE PATTERS DAY 1
​
Students will be introduced to the concept of primitive patterns; what they are, how they work and how to use then clinically within a musculoskeletal context. The course will also discuss and take an in-depth look at Anatomy trains, the fascial lines of the body, how muscles are connected to each other and how primitive patterns can be used to effect and improve these lines.
The course will have significant practical components, on how to assess primitive patterns on a person and then how to treat and improve a clients functional movement patterns using primitive patterns.
The course will also go through patient case studies with differing musculoskeletal presentations and how to apply the patterns to achieve the best result for the client.
A detailed course booklet will be provided to the students.
Learning outcomes:
-
Will have an understanding of what primitive patterns are and the 7 different patterns.
-
Will have an understanding of what Anatomy trains are and the 6 different fascial lines.
-
Will have an ability to assess the primitive patterns on a client.
-
Will have an ability to improve a person’s patterns and treat musculoskeletal conditionsusing primitive patterns
APPLIED PRIMITIVE PATTERS DAY 2
​
Students will further develop their understanding of primitive patterns. They will be introduced to assessing and treating eye movement and their affect on the patterns and the musculoskeletal system.
The course will also introduce the student to the loaded primitive pattern; what they are, how they work and how to use then clinically within a musculoskeletal context. The course will continue to discuss and take an in-depth look at Anatomy trains, the fascial lines of the body, how muscles are connected to each other and how primitive patterns can be used to effect and improve these lines.
The course will have significant practical components, on how to assess primitive patterns on a person and then how to treat and improve a clients functional movement patterns using primitive patterns.
The course will also go through patient case studies with differing musculoskeletal presentations and how to apply the patterns to achieve the best result for the client.
A detailed course booklet will be provided to the students.
Learning outcomes:
-
Will have a further understanding of the 7 primitive patterns and the fascial lines.
-
Will be introduced to assessing and treating eye movement.
-
Will have an understanding on how to assess and treat by loading the patterns.
-
Will have an understanding of the Anatomy Trains Arm Lines.
-
Will develop an understanding on how to use primitive patterns to treat chronic pain presentations.
-
Will have a further understanding and ability to improve a person’s patterns and treat musculoskeletal conditions using primitive patterns.

FEEDBACK FROM OUR STUDENTS
James
'Such a great course, definitely made me think differently when seeing clients now"
Tracey
"Loved this course, great that we had lots of practical time. I was shocked when i learnt I was unable to do some of the patterns myself!"
Ashley
This course has definitely challenged my thinking when treating! Can't wait to start using these concepts when I get back to the clinic.
