“Novel Applications of Manual Therapy Within Integrative Rehabilitation Practice”
PRESENTER: Cheryl Van Demark, PT, MA, C-IAYT, Associate Professor of Movement, The University of Illinois at Chicago
Navigating life as a health professional calls upon us to continually refresh our knowledge and weave it wisely and heartfully into the art of clinical practice. Guiding our integration of manual therapies into rehabilitation based on scientific evidence is both necessary and problematic when we consider the balance of what is known of its efficacy with all that is yet unknown about the influence of touch upon the experience of healing. This webinar engages the learner with simple concepts and techniques that can be immediately employed in practice to deepen the presence of clinician and patient to the experience of giving and receiving a wide range of manual therapies.
Learning Objectives
- Describe simple practices to create and sustain clinician and client presence within the therapeutic encounter.
- Identify three new ways to engage in manual therapy as a tool for guiding the client in self-regulating the nervous system to influence persistent pain.
- Reflect with an open mind and spirit of curiosity upon the non-putative aspects of manual therapy and generate one question about the potential influence of touch upon healing.
