COURSE OPTIONS:

Advanced Assessment & Treatment of the Foot and Ankle: 7 CEC’s Member Price: $325, Non-Member Price: $425 Sunday, April 21, 2024 Instructed by Dr. Jesse Reynolds with AIM Online Education Time – 9:00am – 5:00pm. This will be hosted in person in Saskatoon, SK.

Acting as the fundamental fulcrum point in bipedal movement, the foot and ankle play a pivotal role in one & ability to move safely and efficiently. Containing a little more than 25% of all of the bones in the body, which combine to create 33 joints in each foot, understanding dysfunctions in this region is inevitably complicated, and yet imperative for a comprehensive understanding of the body in motion. In this 7 hour workshop, students will take a deep dive into the foot and ankle. Students will gain a complete understanding of the bones and joints of the foot and ankle, as well as muscles and connective tissue, and how these structures combine to create efficient movement. This knowledge will be cemented via a detailed hands- on portion of the workshop which will cover an assessment of complex and chronic ankle and foot dysfunctions, treatment protocols including myofascial release and joint mobilizations, and be finalized with comprehensive
homecare.

Having mastered the techniques taught in Advanced Assessment and Treatment of the Ankle will not only help you with ankle and foot dysfunctions; the skills and principles can be applied to every region of the body.

Athletic Taping: 7 CEC’s Member Price: $325, Non-Member Price: $425 Sunday, April 21, 2024. Presented by Mark Chee-Aloy with the ConEd Institute. Time – 9:00am – 5:00pm.

The purpose of this course is to introduce Athletic Taping for common sports injuries to Manual Therapists, Kinesiologists, and Personal Trainers.

Athletic taping is a skill that is under-utilized by most Manual Therapists, Kinesiologists, and Personal Trainers, typically reserved for Field of Play Medical Teams, such as Certified Athletic Therapists, Sport Physiotherapists, and Sport Medicine Doctors. Unless you are a Sports Massage Therapist or have been involved in athletics, you may not be aware of the benefits of Athletic Taping.

Athletic taping is performed by applying tape to the body on the skin surface to maintain a stable position of joints and muscles during physical activity. Athletic taping is multifaceted, being used for several reasons, injury prevention, injury management, and maintaining proper biomechanics during activity.

Through a combination of lecture and practical sessions, this course will explore athletic taping techniques for the purpose of:

  • Stabilizing or restricting the range of motion of an injured joint to allow physical activity with reduced pain
  • Compress soft tissue to support the musculotendinous unit
  • Support injured structures via athletic taping / wrapping

This is NOT a K-Tape course. 5 Rolls of Athletic Tape will be provided.
