For: PTA
This course discusses the physiology behind advanced strength, coordination, and skill exercises including plyometrics, how clinicians can use a clinical decision-making process for therapeutic exercise prescription, and practical examples of assessing and prescribing exercise for various populations. With this information clinicians bring patients and clients to their highest level of function through appropriate use of exercise.
By the end of the course, a successful learner will be able to:
- Describe types of exercises and elements of exercise that would be appropriate for specific populations of patients.
- Discuss patients who might benefit from exercise to enhance advanced coordination and skill.
- Describe the type of patient who might benefit from advanced exercise.
- Learn various methods of assessing advanced coordination and skill are included as well as parameters for prescribing effective exercises.
- Describe the types of exercises and how to prepare exercise dosage to improve patient gain.
- Demonstrate assessment and outcome measurement techniques and exercise prescription for advanced strength, coordination, and skill for lower and upper quarter conditions.
- Apply sound reasoning to exercise prescription to those with persistent pain.
