Lab 1: Performance Optimization – it is for everyone!

The power of a person comes not from without, but from within. This inter-regional dependence model is used with athletes and individuals with symptomatic pathologies but is rarely integrated into practice beyond these two dichotomies. This course will address essential screening, management, and performance optimization for our patients/clients. Multiple lab stations related to topics essential for evidence-informed practice will be incorporated including screening, movement analysis, and interventions including high intensity interval training, strength/power training, and plyometrics. We will focus on a different element of clinical management and encourage clinicians to treat every patient like an athlete to optimize their quality of life and enhance their clinical outcomes.
