This Blog heading is dedicated to Professor Vladimir Janda, who with his functional approach of Rehabilitation has greatly influenced the way I practice as a Chiropractor. 

I was fortunate to be trained in these unique methods by Professor Janda himself on three occasions before he passed away in 2002.

I have further received training in the Janda Approach by:

• Craig Liebenson
• Clayton Skaggs & Susan Green
• Joanne Bullock-Saxton
• Michaela Veverkova

The first book I bought by Professor Janda, was in 1986 – it was translated from Czech to Swedish and was called “Muskelfunktions diagnostik”

Many practitioners unfortunately missed the opportunity to be taught by professor Janda, and I therefore intend to post small summaries of my lecture notes from the courses by Professor Janda that I attended.   

For more information regarding Professor Janda’s approach and opportunities to receive training in these unique and very effective methods click the button below:

I would also strongly recommend anyone interested in the Janda Approach to read a very good book called“Assessment and Treatment of Muscle Imbalance” by Phil Page, Clare C Frank and Robert Lardner.  The Book is very well written and explains the Janda Approach nicely.

Rehabilitation of the spine- By Craig Liebenson, is another excellent book that covers a lot of Professor Janda's material.
