Custom-Designed Scoliosis Workshops for Healthcare Professionals

If you’re a healthcare or movement professional working in a team setting, then there’s a high chance that some of you have met clients with scoliosis (incidence rate: 3% of adolescents and up to 60% of adults of the age of 60!).

Detailed information on scoliosis isn’t commonly taught, and theoretical facts found on google may not provide the tips for practical application that you really need. We’ve worked hard over the years to streamline the most critical and practical information for you, creating impactful learning experiences for you and your team.

Over the past few years, we’ve been offering these workshops to our colleagues here in Vancouver and to others across Canada and the rest of the world.

Examples of past customizations:

• Master of Physical Therapy students learned how to identify, assess, and appropriately refer clients with scoliosis, as they were about to enter the workforce in a variety of practice areas

 

• Paediatric Physiotherapists learned similarities and differences between idiopathic and neurological scoliosis, and how to adapt Schroth-based principles for kiddos with cognitive and physical challenges

 

• A group of Physiotherapists and Clinical Pilates instructors working together in a studio learned strategies to modify mat, reformer, and other equipment repertoire to suit the needs of each client

 

• A group of Kinesiologists learned about biomechanics to consider while coaching their clients through resistance training and weightlifting
