PNMT for the Hip and Thigh

The vital role of the hip as a source of pain and its role in healthy movement is often overlooked. Precise soft tissue approaches can be amazingly effective, particularly when hip or lower back pain is present without visible pathology. The focus of this seminar is on accurate assessment strategies and effective treatment techniques to help you treat the right structure for the right reason. We don’t just teach you how, we teach you why! (8 CEUs) Instructor: PNMT Staff

PNMT for the Leg and Foot

Manual therapists will leave with clear clinical reasoning skills to determine the source of a client’s pain and the technical skills to positively affect that pain. For the knee, we will help you understand and treat medial, lateral, and posterior pain syndromes. In the lower leg, conditions affecting the anterior and posterior shin splints, calf pain, and pain syndromes of the feet (plantar fasciitis / plantar fasciosis) will be explored.
