Evidence in Motion is excited to offer several BOC approved courses to help athletic trainers (like yourself) elevate their patient care and take their careers to the next level. Browse our BOC approved courses below!

The Functional Dry Needling (FDN) Level 1 course gives clinicians the tools to elevate their practice to a new level of patient care. This foundational Functional Dry Needling course of study teaches the insertion of fine filament needles into neuromuscular junctions/motor points, stimulating the muscle, and bringing unbelievable pain relief and significantly improved function to athletes and patients who have been suffering for years.

FDN Level 1 teaches important dry needling techniques and involves ample lab time to test, practice and perfect the art and science of Functional Dry Needling so you can offer this to your patients the very next day. Musculature taught in the introductory level involves areas of the hip, lower extremity, thigh, upper extremity, shoulder, lumbar spine and cervical spine. A strong emphasis on safety and precaution is reinforced, as well as clinical application, research, history of dry needling, and relevant case study.

This course provides current best-evidence for the management of the female athlete. It will include topics such as The Triad (formerly known as the Female Athlete Triad), relative energy deficiency in sports (RED-S), gender differences with anatomy/physiology, sports biomechanics, medical conditions such as cardiac and sports concussion, life spectrum issues including pregnancy and master athlete issues. The participant will explore and demonstrate competency in the management spectrum of the female athlete from injury prevention, pre-participation screening to rehabilitation and performance enhancement.

This course will serve as a foundational introduction, or 20,000-foot view, to the world of the tactical athlete, focused rehabilitation and return to duty/injury screening. Each section will have certain “deep dives” into a topic area that serves to increase knowledge, exposure, and interest.

EIM’s Tactical Athlete course improves the understanding of what a tactical athlete is and their similarities and differences to traditional athlete. Participants will gain a better understanding of how those similarities and differences affect the testing, rehabilitation and performance conditioning of these specialized athletes.

This self-paced, self-directed course will help to prepare the physical therapy professional for advanced understanding of athletes who are required to use the overhead throwing motion in their sport. This 4-week module will expand on the unique characteristics of overhead throwing athletes and the injuries they are at increased risk for.

This 4-week tutorial-based course is designed to improve participant’s understanding and application of current best-evidence for basic science of injury and healing, involving neuromusculoskeletal tissues, as well as Sports Biomechanics including running gait cycle, throwing, golf, cycling, swimming, and jumping/landing biomechanics. Participants find and interpret evidence to guide clinical practice using case-based learning examples.
