4 Contact hour CEs, NCBTMB Approved.
Working with our hands is a very rewarding and potentially injury-causing activity and the line between use and overuse is often very small. This workshop aims to take a deeper look at the anatomy of the forearm and hand and explore common pathologies seen in a manual therapy practice. All of this will be interwoven with specific, focused bodywork for the forearm and hand with an emphasis on techniques that won’t overuse the therapist’s hands in the process. We will discuss ways in which bodywork can support our clients with hand and forearm issues and when it would be more appropriate to refer our clients out. Some highlights include: tenosynovitis conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome, epicondyle related pathologies, nerve locations as well as radius and carpal movements and mobilizations.

This workshop is part of a series of “Deep Dive” Workshops held by Alex in his studio space in Mt Tabor. As such, space is limited to 8 students.
