Functional Mobilization I
2023-10-06 08:00 - 2023-10-08 17:00 (America/Detroit) | Atlanta, GA IPA, Emory University Hospital, Atlanta, GA, United States
IPA has led the profession since 1978 in the understanding and implementation of myofascial and soft tissue mobilization for treatment of human structure and function. FMI, (formerly FO I) was the first biomechanical soft tissue mobilization (STM) course offered to the PT profession. In FMI, the participant personally experiences the dynamic changes in his or her structure and function as well as facilitates changes in a lab partner during supervised lab sessions. Master clinician instructors guide the participants in:

An understanding of the dynamic Functional Manual Therapy® clinical reasoning system
Comprehensive discussion of the three pillars of FMT: Mechanical Capacity, Neuromuscular Function, and Motor Control
Observation of posture and dynamic movement assessment
Three Functional Tests to be used before and after each intervention
End feel assessment and interpretation
Localization of mechanical myofascial and soft tissue dysfunctions
Specific Functional Mobilization™ techniques which combine soft tissue and joint mobilization with active or resisted patient movements and PNF. With direct progressions into specific exercise training.

After taking FMI, the skills and techniques learned will directly impact your clinical practice by empowering you to create immediate changes in the function of the human body with three dimensional and localized manual therapy interventions. The immediate clinical impact of FMI stems from the supervised lab sessions in which the participants observe the correlation between the mechanical capacity of the soft tissue system and posture and functional movements. The concept of the human body as an interconnected and dynamic system permeates the instruction and lab practice sessions. Emphasis is placed on your skill development for both observation and manual treatment.

Dry Needling 1: Foundations I Myopain
2023-10-06 08:00 - 2023-10-08 17:00 UTC | Myopain Seminars – Corporate Office, 4405 East-West Highway, Bethesda, MD, United States
The DN-1 Foundations I course features a brief introduction to the history of dry needling, trigger points, and myofascial pain, an in-depth review of possible adverse events, the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Standards within the context of dry needling, and an introduction to relevant pain sciences.

Many muscles commonly addressed in clinical practice are included, such as the infraspinatus, upper trapezius, deltoid, sternocleidomastoid, triceps, biceps, brachialis, levator scapulae, the latissimus dorsi (partially), the subscapularis, brachioradialis, wrist extensors, supinator and anconeus, the quadratus lumborum, psoas major, lumbar iliocostalis, the gluteal muscles (minimus, medius, and maximus), the hip adductor muscles, the quadriceps and hamstrings, and gastrocnemius and soleus muscles.
Students will review the anatomy, function, and dry needling techniques for each muscle.
Pre-Course videos will be provided after registration. You can register for the DN-1 Webinar If you prefer to review the presentations in a live webinar.
Dry Needling 1: Foundations I is the first course in a 3-course series offered by Myopain Seminars to attain certification as a Certified Myofascial Trigger Point Therapist – Dry Needling (CMTPT/DN).
A minimum score of 70% on a multiple choice quiz plus demonstrated muscle competency is required to pass this course. Physical therapists licensed in Tennessee must achieve a minimum score of 80%.
Several states require between 46 and 54 hours of dry needling education to be able to use dry needling in clinical practice, which makes some students conclude that attending the DN-3 course would not be needed. In one of our blogs, we explain the clinical and legal considerations why clinicians should complete the entire certification program in dry needling,

Advanced Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Performance Enhancement: IDN
2023-10-06 08:00 - 2023-10-08 17:00 (America/Detroit) | Charlotte, NC IDN, 110 W King Street, Kings Mountain, NC, United States
The Advanced Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Performance Enhancement course (3 days) is designed for licensed healthcare professionals that have a desire to elevate their treatment of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. This one of a kind course provides original information that can only be acquired through our institute. The participant will be provided with a deeper understanding of the physiologic and therapeutic effects of dry needling. Negative effects of neurogenic inflammation and microcirculation abnormalities will be discussed enhancing participants understanding for applying dry needling using the peripheral nerve mapping concept. Advanced neurological and musculoskeletal concepts, needling techniques and treatments will be presented and practiced in this primarily lab-based course. The integration of electrical nerve stimulation (ENS) will be emphasized as an important adjunct to dry needling treatment. Focus is on assuring safe and effective advanced dry needling skills with sound clinical decision-making.
