Course Description
This course aims to help you use reasoning to plan and manage rehabilitation programmes across a wide range of sports and conditions. It will help you move away from one size fits all “recipes” to being able to tailor individualised programmes based on your clinical reasoning skills.
We cover topics such as:
- Choosing the best type of load for adaptation in different tissues as they heal
- Planning and periodisation principles in rehabilitation, including a needs analysis
- How to prescribe effective strengthening programmes for a rehabilitating athlete
- How to tailor your programme for individual needs and end goals.
- When to use stretching and what type
- How to re-educate better movement patterns in a way that athletes will retain that skill and transfer to different contexts.
- How to consider the endurance athlete
- Return to training/competition
… and much more.
This longstanding and popular course has been substantially revised to make it more accessible to busy physios.
- There is now a comprehensive online resource in place of the previous Part 1 of the course, with approximately 20 hours of CPD, as well as downloadable resources, links to further information and a discussion board to interact with tutors or other participants.
- Part 2 remains face to face and is packed with practical workshop style teaching, which brings the knowledge from Part 1 to life.
- There is opportunity for reflection and self-directed learning in both parts of the course, as well as opportunities to discuss individual queries with experienced tutors, who have worked with a wide range of different sports.
If you would like to make your rehabilitation programmes more effective, this is the course for you.
NB: The course is open to qualified physiotherapists; both memebrs and non-members may book.
