New Manual Articular Approach: Elbow, Wrist & Hand

Refine your treatment of the upper extremity with this precision-focused masterclass. Jean-Pierre Barral applies his "New Manual Articular Approach" to the elbow, wrist, and hand, moving beyond surface tension to address the internal pressure of the joint capsule. Learn to restore negative pressure, distribute synovial fluid evenly, and protect the cartilage.

This session offers distinct strategies for treating Epicondylitis (differentiating between Tennis and Golf elbow based on nerve involvement) and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Barral provides a microscopic evaluation of the median nerve's pathway and addresses often-overlooked factors—such as the influence of hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause) on connective tissue elasticity.
