Background

'Strength and Conditioning' is said to be a fundamental part of allowing successful recovery from injury.

However, within physiotherapy, application of strengthening exercises have received scrutiny over recent years, with critics suggesting these treatment choices are often poorly selected and 'dosed' ineffectively.

Aims

In this evening workshop, Nick will show you why rehabilitation exercise prescription principles from the 1940’s are no longer acceptable.

Rehabilitation exercise selection and prescription are simple concepts that are often made more complex than necessary within clinical practice. Nick will demonstrate simple evidence based principles that will allow you to produce effective rehabilitation programmes to meet your client’s various needs.

The concepts that will be covered can be easily be incorporated into your practice, building upon what you already do well, whilst challenging your existing ideas. Nick will show how expanding your ability to design and implement effective exercise prescriptions can dramatically improve compliance and rehabilitation outcomes.

This workshop will be of particular interest to Physiotherapists, Osteopaths, Chiropractors, Sports Therapists, Sports Rehab Professionals and Strength Coaches and will constitute two hours of Continued Professional Development. This workshop introduces key concepts and will be of particular interest to anyone considering attending his popular 2-Day course that will be held later in the calendar year.
