Neurodynamics: Nuanced treatment and evaluation for the painful nerve
Patient's with nerve pain can be especially tricky to manage. Whether it's appropriately assessing tension, or prescribing the appropriate treatment, a lot goes into this particular branch of practice. This class covers what PT school, and most other education courses won't in terms of effectively evaluating these clients in the least provocative manner, and intervening in an appropriate and patient-centered way.
The Shoulder: Making sense of what we know and what we don't know
The shoulder can be incredibly difficult to manage. The high motor control demand, the mobility, and the levels of disability experienced by those suffering with shoulder pain are just a few reasons the shoulder can be tricky. This is especially true for the shoulder given the current lack of evidence across the board from the medical and therapy points of view. Evolve Education outlines one of the first step-by-step guides to navigating both the communication side, and the operator skills required to effectively manage the most challenging shoulder cases.
Blood Flow Restriction: Applying an underused modality for the average patient population
BFR is commonly used for the athletic and young population. However, every day we are learning how to safely apply this incredibly useful and effective tool for patients outside of the stereotypical population it is associated with. This course will make you comfortable with using BFR and with making the decision of when to use, and when not to use this tool. We will also give you a detailed background of it's application, and an overview of the associated evidence.
The Hip: The Crossroads for the Spine and the Knee
In the same way that the cervical spine is often implicated with shoulder pain, the hip is similarly involved with the lumbopelvic region and the knee. This course is truly a lower quadrant course with a focus on hip pain. Thorough differential diagnosis is a key to evaluation of the hip in terms of red flags and musculoskeletal referrals. This course covers evaluation, treatment of special diagnoses, and outlines a progressive loading for patients across all spectrums.
