The Biological Basis of Tendonitis and Tendonopathy

Therapy Network Seminars


Format(s):   Home-study
Discipline(s):   Physical Therapy / Occupational Therapy / Athletic Training
Contact Hours:   1.5
Registration Fee:   $52


Objectives
Be able to contrast and compare the biological events occurring in inflammatory tendinitis and tendinopathic disease. Match clinical findings to the underlying biology Design treatment that is consistent with the state of the underlying tissue thereby improving clinical outcomes. Understand the theoretical concepts underlying the use of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization.

Target Audience
PT, PTA, OT, OTA, ATs, PA-C, DC

Confirmation Notes
An email confirmation with a link to join the webinar will be sent upon receipt of tuition

Agenda
The cellular activity noted in inflammatory tendinitis and tendinopathic disease The chemical mediators of tendinitis vs tendinopathy The clinical presentation of tendinopathy Treatment algorithms for tendinopathy vs tendinitis Principles of soft tissue mobilization with instruments to address tendinopathic conditions

Description
This webinar is designed to present the clinical problem of tendinopathic disease from biological perspective and explore therapy options for the management of this disease. The cellular and chemical factors are presented. Further an algorithmic approach to tendinopathy is presented with the goal of employing biologically sound interventions.
