Join Kinesiologist Tim Agnew in this dynamic new course designed to show the professional therapist how to prevent and overcome work-related injuries. The field of bodywork has grown to amazing proportions in the last few years, with hundreds of modalities and endless techniques. With this growth, one thing has not changed; overuse injuries in the field remain steady, with practitioners sometimes undergoing surgeries to correct dysfunctions, and some just finding other careers that are less abusive. Bodywork—whether it is physical therapy, massage, or athletic training—is not easy on the body. Lifting, pushing, pulling, bending, grasping for hours a day, sometimes without a break, is brutal to our joints and muscles. In addition, therapists with dysfunctions often continue to work, thus exacerbating an already irritated condition. In this two-day course, students will learn the complete Dynamic Flexibility protocols from the new DVD (included in the course), plus advanced movements for specific issues. Also, specific strength routines for many common dysfunctions will help get you pain-free—and stay that way. If you currently suffer from injuries that are affecting your career, this course is for you. Work smarter and give better treatments! Avoid burn out!
Course Features:
• 56-minute Dynamic Flexibility DVD
• Self-Maintenance routines for common dysfunctions
• Change your poor posture by the end of the course
