Free webinar hosted by Key Clinical Skills with Dr. Claire Minshull
Recorded live on January 25th, 2023 7:00PM EST
The aim of any rehabilitation programme is to enable the patient to return to function or sports, safely, effectively and as quickly as possible. In such a demanding environment, managing the patient/athlete day-to-day and the use of new and untested technologies are tempting. This can often result in sub-optimal outcomes and missing the basic principles that drive neuromuscular adaptation.
In this webinar I aim to expand your knowledge on the detailed aspects of strength and conditioning and the key principles that drive adaptation and thus recovery. In doing so you will learn immediately deployable techniques to help optimise/enhance your clinical rehabilitation practice and the subtle, but important changes that can translate into big gains for your patients.
Specific topics that we’ll address:
– What is strength
– Why is strength important, for all patient populations
– How to adapt exercise to optimise strength adaptation – in patients & the elderly
– Strength vs. power, which is more important for rehab
– Hierarchy of importance; why we need a strength-first approach
