Description

Inquiring minds want to know…

What functional activities or movements are most often challenging for your patients? How do you identify and document measurable, functional changes as a result of therapeutic exercise? Do you have a logical sequence to progress or downgrade exercises? How many ways can you advance bridging exercises or use sit <—> stand as a functional, therapeutic activity?

In this active, energetic course, our focus is on practical therapeutic exercises that are patientfriendly and demonstrate skilled intervention by licensed rehabilitation professionals in all settings.
