Course Overview

Manual therapy and therapeutic exercise are foundational interventions when treating orthopedic conditions. Recently, research has focused on the effectiveness of using both manual therapy and therapeutic exercise to treat orthopedic conditions as compared to other interventions or compared to using just manual therapy or just therapeutic exercise. There is a growing body of evidence to support the use of these interventions together as they seem to augment the effectiveness of each other. 

This course will look at recent evidence that demonstrates the effectiveness of manual therapy and therapeutic exercise relative to specific orthopedic conditions. Lab sessions will focus on demonstrating the manual therapy techniques and exercises that are found to be effective in treating conditions in the hip, knee, ankle, and shoulder.
