Every year we focus on improving our clinical skills, learning new techniques based on latest evidence and medical research in the field of Physiotherapy. See below for the latest Professional Development courses our Physio's have been to.
Divya and Taruna attended a two day workshop on 3D assessment and treatment of Cervical and Thoracic spine and Ribs.
The thoracic spine and particularly ribs can be a very complex and daunting biomechanical area to understand. A main objective of this course was to demystify the biomechanics, kinematics and treatment of this area. A clear 3 dimensional model to understand thoracic spine and rib function and the most common joint and muscular dysfunctions that occur in the region formed the bases of the assessment and treatment techniques.
The course also involved detailed 3 dimensional biochemical assessment and treatment of cervical spine complex and its conditions.
Both Divya and Taruna found the course very beneficial in adding to their knowledge and skills of treating neck and upper back conditions.
