May 1, 2025, 1:00 - 5:00 PM

 

Join us for this hands-on workshop designed specifically for chiropodists, where you'll gain practical skills to address some of the most common foot conditions.

This dynamic seminar begins with an anatomy refresh and a guided review of essential assessments, including ranges of motion, fascia, and muscles. From there, you'll explore effective manual therapy techniques, with insights into their indications, contraindications, and best practices.

The workshop also features targeted treatment protocols combining manual therapy, taping, and remedial exercises to tackle conditions such as plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, hallux valgus (HAV), shin splints, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, and Achilles tendinopathy.

Whether you're looking to refine your practice or expand your treatment toolkit, this session will empower you to deliver exceptional care to your patients
