Course Description: Lumbopelvic Hip Complex Dysfunction (LPHCD)
“Lumbopelvic Hip Complex Dysfunction (LPHCd)" is an edit and update of previous postural dysfunction models (e.g. lower body posture, lower-crossed syndrome, sway back posture, anterior pelvic tilt, etc.). It is important to recognize that in these models the term "posture" is being used as an analogy for "ideal alignment". Similarly, when movement professionals refer to pelvic posture, low back posture, good posture, poor posture, better posture, etc. they are referring to this analogy of ideal alignment; not the rigid positioning implied by the colloquial use of the term "posture."
Postural dysfunction and movement impairment syndromes are likely the beginning of "modeling". Modeling has significant potential to aid in refining clinical decision-making, intervention selection, and program design, and improve the reliability and effect size of outcomes. Models are especially conducive for assisting in interpreting multi-variant problems, which is how all clients and patients present. The Brookbush Institute recommends that all sports medicine professionals (personal trainers, fitness instructors, physical therapists, massage therapists, chiropractors, occupational therapists, athletic trainers, etc.) consider these models as an aid in refining decision-making in practice.
Additional Models:
Definitions:
- Posture: Arthro- and osteo-kinematics alignment maintained by optimal myofascial activity and length, as a result of sensation, integration, and activation by the nervous system - both statically and dynamically.
- Postural Dysfunction: The absence of ideal posture as a result of maladaptation by one or multiple tissues within the human movement system.
- Brookbush Institute Modern Definition: Modeling patterns of movement impairment correlated with orthopedic dysfunction, based on all available evidence, with the intent of predicting best-practice assessments and techniques, to optimize measured outcomes.

Correlated Injuries, Pathologies, and Pain
The Lumbo Pelvic Hip Complex Dysfunction (LPHCD) model is constructed based on research demonstrating the maladaptive alterations of tissues and motion associated with common impairments of the human movement system. If we create a list of these impairments, this adds to the definition of the LPHCD model, as the model itself could be defined as the expected maladaptive changes to arise from those impairments.
