CLINICIAN FEEDBACK AFTER RECENT PART B COURSES:
- I’m more comfortable understanding the importance of working full neck extension ROM and to differentiate upper and lower cervical spine movements.
- MDT has made me more aware of the potential for extremity pain to be referred from the spine. Multiple shoulder pain patients have responded to cervical retraction.
- It is greatly helping me better use movement to allow my patients to be self-sufficient with the least force possible!)
- MDT has offered me many new possibilities for the evaluation and treatment for my patients! I’ve been able to get such good results mainly with my Cx, thx and Lx patients using MDT. Really made my practice evolve to the next level!
