Our Workshops

By attending workshops specifically designed to enhance assessment skills, kinesiologists can be empowered ability to identify and understand straightforward muscle and joint injuries from more complicated injuries. This includes assessing joint mobility, muscle length and strength imbalances, and recognizing common pain patterns associated with specific injuries.

Focusing on Joint Mobilization

Joint mobilization plays a vital role in the assessment and treatment of muscle and joint injuries. It involves the application of manual techniques within the scope of practice to assess for joint range of motion, pain and normal function. Workshops dedicated to joint mobilization provide kinesiologists with hands-on training and guidance on the proper techniques to assess and address joint restrictions and pain patterns.

Muscle Length and Strength Testing

Assessing muscle length and strength is crucial in identifying muscle and joint injuries. Workshops for kinesiologists provide valuable training in conducting comprehensive muscle length and strength tests using evidence-based assessment resources.

During these workshops, kinesiologists learn to perform a variety of tests to evaluate muscle length and strength, including manual muscle testing, . By accurately assessing muscle disfunction as the source of injury kinesiologists can design tailored exercise programs to address these issues and promote optimal recovery.

Recognizing Common Pain Patterns

Understanding common pain patterns associated with specific injuries is essential for accurate assessment. Workshops for kinesiologists focus on teaching them how to recognize and interpret these pain patterns, enabling them to identify the source of pain and develop appropriate treatment strategies.

By attending these workshops, kinesiologists gain knowledge about the referral patterns of pain, which helps them differentiate between primary and secondary pain sources. This understanding allows for a more precise assessment of the injury, leading to more effective treatment interventions.
