Description

Hybrid Online Course: Treating Tendonitis in the Upper Extremity including Taping, IASTM, Joint Alignment and Cupping Complete 5.5 hours of recorded lectures, recorded demonstrations of treatment techniques, and case study assignment prior to attending a 2- hour Zoom classroom meeting (focusing on case studies, review of treatment techniques and taping applications and Q & A), and a final post-test. This hybrid online combined-concepts CE course will provide innovative techniques that can be used immediately with numerous “take home” tips and pearls. Includes many demonstrations of treatment techniques and video evidence for “Treating Tendonitis in the Upper Extremity”. Learn new techniques that can be used to treat pain conditions in the upper extremity. Includes extensive patient demonstrations to present the concepts of muscle imbalance and alignment. Focus on the agonist/antagonist muscle relationship, joint kinematics with movement as well as compensation movement patterns. Learn to recognize which muscles are “under functioning “and which are “over functioning”. Explore techniques on how to improve joint ROM, eliminate pain and sensitivity, and restore balance to the upper extremity. Joint mobilization and taping applications will clearly demonstrate muscle imbalance. Current research will be included to support these concepts.
