Exercise Prescription for the Lower Back

A four-hour workshop discussing low back dysfunction, the functional anatomy of the low back, and strengthening and stretching exercises to improve function.  Exercises will be demonstrated and practiced during this session, providing you with material to assist your clients in improving their lower back fitness, balance, movement, strength and core stability.

Whiplash Associated Disorders - A Kinesiologist's Perspective

This workshop is designed for Kinesiologists and exercise therapists who treat clients with Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD). Topics covered include a review and critique of key literature, exploring evidence to support exercise therapy for the treatment of WAD. A deeper understanding of WAD will be gained through an in-depth review of cervical anatomy, mechanism of injury, pathoanatomical diagnosis, and timelines for healing. Finally, a practical component will introduce basic assessment of cervical function, and present cervical stabilization exercises, progressions, and stretches to enhance the therapist’s current approach to treatment.
