Over the past decade there has been a significant rise in the popularity of strength and conditioning in the therapy world.
Omschrijving scholing
As a result of this popularity, there have been suggestions that there is a shortfall of focused education at undergraduate level, specifically within the physiotherapy profession.
This has potentially led to a reduction in knowledge and confidence when applying basic rehabilitation principles.
The idea that S&C is the new panacea in therapy has come under deserved criticism, due to a lack of robust evidence with its effect on managing pain in comparison to other therapy modalities. |
This raises important questions, such as: when does it matter and how can therapists best apply these principles?
This webinar is aimed at therapists (working across all sectors) who want to cut through the noise that surrounds this topic and give practical advice in accordance with the current evidence, so that a clear learning journey can begin.
