THE COMPLETE ACL REHAB JOURNEY
Course description:
​
The course is purposefully organised to walk through the entire rehab process from the moment of injury to return to performance and onwards.
It is NOT designed as a recipe book. This course aims to improve clinical decision making at all stages of the rehab journey. We will use real world examples from our own clinical practice and the evidence base to help you to develop expert clinical reasoning to apply to all your ACL injured patients including those trickier cases.
This will NOT be death by PowerPoint. There will be large practical components used to build on the theoretical base of the course. Strength and conditioning concepts and their practical application will be a fundamental part of the course. This course is designed for anyone that treats ACL injuries and wants to improve their patient outcomes from the next day in clinic.
