Evaluate. Intervene. Succeed!
This 2-day workshop is designed to bring a specific focus to the functional examination of injuries and development of a rehabilitation plan for the lower quarter. Through lectures, demonstrations, and labs, you will learn functional examination techniques to compliment your basic clinical orthopedic examination. You will learn a comprehensive, systematic examination process to better assess the lower quarter as a whole, rather than individual parts. You will also learn how a lower quarter functional examination can compliment a basic clinical examination of the lower extremity. Initial intervention strategies will also be introduced. This workshop provides a unique learning experience into the functional examination systems and methodology behind the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of lower quarter injuries.
*Note: Only those that hold a license that allows them to evaluate in their practice act are allowed to take the Examination workshop. Anyone working with rehabilitating or transitional athletes/patients can take the Lower Quarter Functional Restoration workshop.
