Continuing Education and Course Sponsorship

It is my goal to provide quality, cost effective educational courses that are virtual or in-person facility-based courses allowing attendance by more staff at a reduced rate. Any course listed below can be modified to meet the needs of the sponsor or a new course can be developed. The instructor is not a certified physical therapy instructor by the Neuro-Developmental Treatment Association; however, NDT courses have been offered in the past and most courses contain some element of NDT.

Course Participant Comments

“Being that I am an occupational therapist I found this course extremely relevant because it was functionally based and with an emphasis on functional strength. The instructor “spoke my language” per se as an OT and I found the course incredibly relevant and useful to my practice. I am a hand and upper extremity OT who treats several neuro patients. Loved the course and the anatomy/neuro review. Brought me back to college days.”

“Great use of visuals for understanding concepts. Speaker was dynamic and good communicator.”

“Instructor was very knowledgeable on topic and encourages professionals to go back to basic anatomy, kinesiology of UE prior to treatment to ensure success of treatment. I think we have a tendency to overlook the obvious!”

“Our staff had very positive comments about your style, knowledge, and applicability of the material. Your overall rating on the evaluation was “excellent.” The staff has begun to implement some of the techniques and strategies they learned at the weekend program.”

“Very knowledgeable – taught us research based and physiologically, biomechanically, and anatomically based approach – all practical and functional treatment approaches. Great ideas incorporated a wide range of experience into concepts, facts, and treatment, etc.”
