Is your patient’s low back, hip, or lower-extremity complaint really coming from where they feel it? Lower Crossed Syndrome is a common pattern of muscular imbalance that can affect pelvic positioning, lumbar mechanics, hip function, movement patterns, and overall biomechanics.

In this clinically focused CE seminar, chiropractors will learn how to recognize the postural and muscular patterns associated with Lower Crossed Syndrome and translate those findings into practical chiropractic care strategies. Discover how muscle tightness, weakness, inhibition, and overactivity can create compensations throughout the pelvis, lumbar spine, hips, and lower extremities.

What You'll Learn

• Recognize Lower Crossed Syndrome — Identify the characteristic postural changes and muscular imbalances that may contribute to common low-back, hip, and movement-related complaints.

• Assess Posture, Pelvic Position & Movement — Develop a systematic approach to evaluating pelvic alignment, lumbar curvature, hip mobility, stability, muscle function, and movement patterns.

• Identify the Muscular Imbalances — Understand how tight, shortened, inhibited, and weakened muscles can influence posture, movement, and spinal mechanics.

• Connect Posture to Biomechanics — Explore how pelvic and muscular dysfunction can affect the lumbar spine, hips, gait, lower-extremity mechanics, and overall movement efficiency.

• Recognize Contributing Factors — Learn how prolonged sitting, poor movement patterns, muscle imbalances, repetitive activities, and other lifestyle factors may contribute to persistent dysfunction.

• Apply Chiropractic Care Strategies — Explore how chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue approaches, stretching, strengthening, and corrective exercise can be incorporated into a comprehensive patient-care approach.

• Use Corrective Exercise Effectively — Learn practical strategies to improve muscle activation, flexibility, pelvic control, core stability, mobility, and functional movement.

• Strengthen Patient Education — Give patients practical strategies they can use outside the office to reinforce treatment goals and support improved movement and function.

Look Beyond the Low Back

Lower Crossed Syndrome challenges chiropractors to look beyond the location of a patient's pain and evaluate the entire postural and biomechanical picture. By understanding the muscular relationships surrounding the pelvis, lumbar spine, and hips, practitioners can better recognize contributing factors and develop more individualized approaches to care.

Take a closer look at the patterns behind the problem—and expand your clinical approach to assessing and managing lower-body dysfunction.

Dr. Glenn R. Brown has more than 22 years of private practice experience and has remained actively involved in chiropractic education and mentorship throughout his career. He has lectured on behalf of University of Bridgeport, Texas Chiropractic College, Sherman College of Chiropractic, and Life University, sharing his clinical knowledge and practical experience with chiropractic students and practicing chiropractors.

Dr. Brown has also served as a field doctor and preceptor for students from Palmer College of Chiropractic and Sherman College of Chiropractic. During his final two terms at the Palmer Clinic, he supervised chiropractic student externs through the Gold Coat Program, beginning his involvement in chiropractic education and mentorship.

His commitment to education began with the Chiropractic Fellowship of Pennsylvania and has continued through professional lectures, seminars, and presentations for chiropractors, students, patients, and the public.

Dr. Brown believes that educating patients, mentoring future chiropractors, and sharing clinical knowledge are among the most rewarding opportunities in the chiropractic profession.

CE Hours:
To earn full credit for an hour, you must be logged in for at least 50 minutes of that hour.  Credit is awarded only in full-hour increments—partial hours are not credited. However, attendees are welcome to attend for less than the full scheduled time and will receive credit for each full hour completed.

Attendance
Upon logging into or out  of Zoom (or the live-stream platform being used), actual time is  documented by the system . 

Webcams
Each attendee must have a webcam on at all times during the seminar.  This is a rule with many state boards to be compliant with taking a class live-stream

Equipment / Computer
Live-Stream seminars are available using laptop computers or desktop computers only. I-phones and I-pads do not fulfill the requirements needed to comply with state board rules.

Additional Materials
If attendees are required to have anything with them, they will be told in the confirmation email sent the Monday prior to the seminar. 

Sharing
Attendees cannot share a computer with another attendee.  Each person attending must be on their own computer. 

Day of the seminar
Doctors will be able to get into the Zoom classroom as early as 1/2 hour prior to start time.  

Polls & Quizzes
Poll questions are posted at the beginning of each break and at the end of the seminar.  Attendees must answer these poll questions to document their attendance. 

Leaving the Seminar
At the end of the day, click the “Leave Meeting” button at the bottom right of your computer screen. Zoom has logged the exact time of everyone in the meeting. Attendees can leave the seminar at any time by clicking the  “Leave Meeting” button. They will receive however many hours they were actually in the meeting.  Refer to CE hours (below) for information on how many CE hours the attendee will obtain if they leave early.

Technical Difficulties
If you have internet or electrical issues that disrupt your attendance, just let us know as soon as possible by emailing us and giving your name and the title of the seminar you were attending when you had these issues. Zoom will have documented the time you were logged in, and it also lets us know if you experienced any technical or electrical outages or issues. It also tells us if you just left the room on your own preference. You will get the number of hours you were logged in.

If we have technical or electrical outages: we will email you to let you know what’s happening. This is rare, and usually only happens when there are strong storms in the area of the instructor. In most cases, the instructor goes to his office/home or to a local hotel to reconnect. You will be disconnected if this happens, so check your email for any word from us on what is happening.

Cancellation and Transfer Policy
You may cancel your registration or transfer to another seminar of equal or lesser cost up until the Monday prior to the scheduled seminar. If you transfer to a seminar of lesser cost before that Monday, the overage will be refunded, minus a 3.5% credit card processing fee. If you cancel before that Monday, your registration fee—minus a 3.5% credit card processing fee—will be refunded. After that Monday, all fees become non-refundable and non-transferable.

Seminar Policy
Seminars will proceed as scheduled as long as at least one doctor is registered at least one week prior to the seminar date, and none of the exceptions listed below apply. If no registrations are received by that time, the seminar will be canceled.

Exceptions to Scheduled Seminars: A seminar may be postponed, canceled, or adjusted due to unforeseen circumstances, including but not limited to:
Acts of God (e.g., natural disasters), Government regulations or restrictions (e.g., COVID-related shutdowns), Instructor medical emergencies, Major travel disruptions (e.g., flight delays or cancellations that prevent arrival).
