Description
Confront the escalating issue of forward head posture (FHP) head-on. Fueled by our modern, technology-driven lifestyle, it is now a common challenge across all age groups. But FHP is more than just a postural issue; it’s a gateway to chronic pain, reduced mobility, and diminished quality of life.
In this course, led by Trent Brown, MOT, OTR/L, BCG, ATP, CFPS, CGCP, you’ll quickly progress from understanding the multifaceted causes of FHP to applying transformative techniques. Whether it’s related to aging, poor workstation set-up, or an addiction to electronic devises, learn how to effectively analyze cervical postural dysfunction and measure FHP in seconds, paving the way for effective intervention.
Filled with practical, evidence-based manual strategies to address the impact of FHP on the entire kinetic chain – you’ll learn how to inhibit, lengthen, and activate structures to alleviate pain and improve function.
Elevate your practice with skills that offer immediate and long-lasting benefits to your patients. Join us to turn a common postural problem into a powerful avenue for enhancing health and function.
