About the course

Description

Part of our Masterclass Series, this module reviews the functional anatomy and classification of elbow, wrist and hand musculature providing learners with a complete solution for delivering movement retraining to successfully manage each patient’s pain, pathology and compromised function in the elbow, forearm and hand. The main focus of this course reviews the functional anatomy and classification of elbow, wrist and hand musculature and presents an integrated management approach based upon a systematic assessment of movement impairments. This course allows all clinicians to harness the power of movement within their practice to empower people to change mechanisms of recurrence. Full Prospectus
