Mastering Upper Body Pain-Free Function is your online course that solves your client's impaired posture, muscle weakness, and nerve entrapment conditions that stop them from enjoying daily life.

 

"I'm used to that."

You've probably heard that a lot from your clients. They're used to their neck, back or shoulders being sore from hunching over all day.

They might even think that tension, headaches, and pain from sitting at desks or staring down at cellphones is “normal”.

But you know better – and thankfully you can treat them with the right strategies.

Feel confident that you can create an entire upper-body rehab plan and give your clients function with less to no pain when you enroll in our brand-new online course, Mastering Upper Body Pain-Free Function: Treatments for Muscle Weakness, Impaired Posture & Nerve Entrapment.

Enroll today to get your upper body treatment guide that shows you how to identify the causes behind the painful symptoms, desensitize the central nervous system from always feeling pain, and return function so daily life isn’t more painful than it needs to be.

You'll learn how to:

  • Decrease pain and dysfunctional habits leading to pain. 
  • Improve function and ROM for pain-free unrestricted movement.
  • Re-educate the muscles to give your client a healthy supported posture, and treat pain that radiates through the spine, back, neck and shoulders.
  • Address entrapment neuropathies, upper-crossed syndrome, text neck and much more.
  • Desensitize the Central Nervous System so your clients aren’t feeling more pain than necessary. And overall, improve the quality of life for your client’s day-to-day movements.

This online course works because instead of looking at your client as separate parts, you get a whole picture of the upper body, taking in their symptoms, Central Nervous System, and the parts of their body affecting bad posture like the cervical spine, hand placements, muscle weakness, and much more.

Pain doesn’t need to cripple your client’s life.

Enroll now to save, and create a treatment plan that makes an impact on the upper body. 

 

 

Do you remember the last time your client went a day without pain in their neck, back or shoulders?

------

 

They probably don't either.

Compressed nerves. Limited range of motion. Inability to function normally. Pain in their shoulders, neck or back, leading to upper crossed syndrome. 

To top it all off treatments don’t normally pinpoint the problem - often only fixing some of the symptoms instead of building strength and stability.

That’s why we created an evidence-based online course to walk you through techniques that allow pain-free, unrestricted movement in your clients called, Mastering Upper Body Pain-Free Function: Treatments for Muscle Weakness, Impaired Posture & Nerve Entrapment.

If you’re ready for a whole treatment plan for the upper body, then we invite you to join us and learn how to address habits that cause dysfunction in the body. 

 

Join us and build rehab routines that exceed your client's expectations - and yours.

Entrapment Neuropathies of the Upper Extremity: Emerging Strategies to Decrease Pain, Increase Range of Motion, & Improve Function

 

Identifying all structures causing upper extremity pain and dysfunction can be difficult with multiple factors creating your client's pain and discomfort.

Determining the source of the problem provides the most effective treatment for the client, but treating the peripheral symptoms is much easier than identifying and treating central sensitization – a condition of the nervous system that is associated with the development and maintenance of persistent symptoms.

What if there was a way to design a treatment program to assess and treat both peripheral symptoms and central sensitization?

This video session will give you evidence-based assessment and treatment strategies for disorders of the upper extremity, from the cervical spine to the hand. To decipher whether entrapment neuropathies are at play, you’ll learn about and gain hands-on experience with using the Upper Limb Neurodynamic Testing (ULNT) and Scratch Collapse Test.

Also, gain 4 ways to identify central sensitization and 5 alternative, evidence-based approaches to calm the nervous system.

Using mirror therapy, graded motor imagery, nerve and myofascial gliding, and muscle re-education, help your clients recover from debilitating pain and improve functionality as well as their quality of life.

Treating Upper Crossed Syndrome: Preventing Shoulder, Back, and Neck Disorders through Better Posture with Michelle Burns,BSRN, BSAlt Med., LMT, MTI, CEP, BCMT

The human body is designed to be a active, not to sit for hours a day.

Locking our body into a set position for a long time can make muscles tight and weak, while our head protruding forward can cause dysfunction and pain, contributing to debilitating conditions like headache, respiratory complications, shoulder injuries, and much more.

This video session will show you how to relieve the postural distortion and regain pain–free, unrestricted movement.

You'll discover the differences between Upper Crossed Syndrome and text neck, and how to relieve bothy. You can also see how muscle imbalances lead to faulty movement patterns and dysfunctions, so you can help your clients achieve pain relief, more mobility, and a healthy, supportive posture.
