About This Event

Feeling like you want to add more, and unique, skills to your tool belt for treating your extremity patients? This course teaches techniques that are for the everyday and difficult extremity patients who don’t respond well to normal treatments. Through it, you’ll learn really cool joint mobilizations and myofascial release techniques, along with retraining exercises that will help your patients maintain the improvements that you gain in the clinic. These are the “clinical pearls” that Patrick has learned over the years and have helped him get patients better when nothing else worked.
