This course is a recording of a previously hosted live webinar event. Polling and question submission features are not available for this recording. Format and structure may differ from standard MedBridge courses.

This course teaches you how to use the movement system to assess, diagnose, and treat athlete movement dysfunction. The course is highly interactive. After analyzing human movement, you will integrate concepts of mobility, muscle performance, and symptom modification procedures into movement-based classifications. You will learn how to develop interventions based on observed faulty movement patterns and integrate sport-specific treatments into a systematic framework that addresses the athlete's spine.
