Reconciling Biomechanics with Pain Science - In Person

This 2-day course is geared toward the health care provider and fitness professional.  With emerging research there is often the feeling that a traditional approach needs to be wholly discarded.  Instead, this course helps the therapist to integrate the pain science and biopsychosocial model of pain with traditional biomechanical techniques.  The course simplifies many of those techniques and distills the most relevant and important aspects of those techniques for pain resolution and injury management. An emphasis is placed on exercise prescription, symptom modification and graded exposure for injury management and simple techniques to start addressing the psychosocial aspects that influence both pain and performance.

You will learn how "pain science" can be taught to patients in a way that builds resilience, optimism and promotes healthy and independent behaviours.

Running Resiliency - Online & In Person

Running Resiliency (Online Course is here) is a thorough and extremely practical  best-practice management course for the injured runner. The course emphasis is on the manipulation of load and stress management in our injured patients and integrates running biomechanical principles within the biopsychosocial framework.  We recognize that runners are ecosystems and ecosystems are positively and negatively influenced by a number of factors.  Meaning we have multiple options to help our athletes.  While not all of these options are taught we recognize that clinicians will have different skillsets and many of these skillsets will fit into the framework presented in this training.

 

Participants  will be comfortable performing a thorough analyses of  all the factors contributing to stressors on a runner, gait analyses (with potential modifications), return to run programs, running training programs and exercise prescription for both performance and injury management. Participants  will be comfortable changing an injured runner’s training program to keep them running and will gain proficiency in designing training programs that also function as rehabilitation programs.
