The Sporting Shoulder
The Sporting Shoulder is a highly practical and interactive course which deals with the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of the shoulder in sport.
For therapist supporting athletes (at all levels of sport)it will provide suggestions on how to manage shoulder injuries (including interventions to assist in reducing the incidence of primary injury, designing appropriate rehabilitation regimes, and supporting shared return to play decisions).
The weekend will develop the concept of the requirements of the shoulder to participate in sport and will introduce alternative considerations which could compromise (sporting) shoulder function.
Additionally, it will consider regional interdependence, assessment of the kinetic chain, what exactly do we need to know about “strength” around the shoulder, assessment and rehabilitation of proprioception, and the concepts of returning to sport.
If time allows, we will cover “brain training” and how influencing cranial nerve function, can improve movement quality.
There will be an emphasis on finding the driver for non-traumatic shoulder pain, rather than on diagnostic labelling, and understanding concepts that can be used to formulate bespoke interventions for athletes. There will be no recipes.
It is hope that the weekend will spark discussion and attendee interaction.
Due to the practical nature of the course, attendees are expected to dress according, so that the upper quadrants can easily be observed.
