Description
Assessment, Treatment, & Rehabilitation of MSK Disorders of the Upper/Lower Body & Spine
Assessment and Rehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Disorders is a course designed for Acupuncture practitioners who frequently treat patients for MSK, pain, injury, motor inhibition, and more. Combining motor points, soft tissue work, and rehabilitation, this seminar provides all the important pillars necessary to develop the complete acupuncture practitioner, adept at getting the best results and being the best at treating MSK disorders out of any profession, hands down.
Attendees will learn to analyze human movement, identify dysfunctional motor patterns and learn how they play an important role in pinpointing the underlying cause of symptoms. They will also learn how to effectively and efficiently prescribe rehabilitation protocols for lower back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, and more.
It is recommended attendees have taken a live EXSTORE seminar or the on-line course, and have used EXSTORE and associated skills in the clinic prior to attending this seminar. However, it is not a required pre-requisite.
In addition to learning rehabilitation exercises, Dr. Furman will also discuss research in rehabilitation and how to fit rehabilitation into the practitioner’s practice, including how to develop a treatment plan using what was learned in the seminar.
This seminar is taught by Dr. Lombardi and Dr. Furman.
