Hour 1

Functional Exercise progression-
Pain and inflammation
Posture
Joint Integrity and Mobility
ROM/Muscle Length
Sensory and Reflex Integrity
Motor Function
Balance, Gait, Locomotion
Muscular Performance
Skills
Biomechanical principle 1

Biomechanical principle 3
Biomechanical principle 5
Patient positioning principles:
Use length of lever arm
Align origin with axis of rotation
Ensure minimal force angle at anatomical range
Keep band in plane of motion

Hour 2

Indications for elastic resistance
Impaired Posture
Impaired Joint Mobility
Impaired Rom/Muscle Length
Impaired Sensory/Reflex Integrity
Impaired Motor Function
Impaired Balance/Gait
Impaired Muscular Performance
Impaired Function
Impaired Aerobic Capacity
Discussion of the sources of flexibility and treatment strategies
Soft tissue mobility and interventions-skin, superficial fascia, muscle, deep fascia
Muscle Stretching
Joint Range of Motion
Bone
Cartilage

Hour 3

Discussion of and demonstration of exercises using stretch strap; No stretching leads to:
Decreased mobility
Decreased muscle metabolism
Decreased muscle coordination
Decreased power "output"
Decreased speed
Increased risk of injuries
Discussion on proprioception. Progression of balance and stabilization training

Hour 4

Discussion of 3 levels of functional stability; joint instability, vicious cycle of instability
Steps of sensorimotor training, steps and progression for sensorimotor training
Stages and importance of sensorimotor training

Hour 5

Discussion of Advantages and Disadvantages of stabilization training
Document services delivered for evidenced- based results

Description:

This course expounds on the evidenced-based research and intervention techniques with resistive bands, flexibility treatment, and balance strategies for the healthcare professional to improve all aspects of patient care. The hands-on treatment techniques and interventions discussed herein can be used immediately and in all clinical settings. The scientific basis and clinical research of resistive, sensorimotor, and stabilization training and progression for patients of all levels is reviewed. Effective documentation strategies for payor reimbursement are also reviewed.

At the end of this course, the healthcare professional will be able to integrate stretch bands, resistive bands, and balance trainers into treatment strategies from pediatric to geriatric populations.
