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!).
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. Our senior therapists filter this information for you, creating customized workshops for you and your team, to streamline the info into immediately actionable strategies for your practice.
Over the past few years, we’ve been doing exactly this for our colleagues here in Vancouver, and now we’re excited to open this up to the world.
1) Email our team HERE and tell us about your team, your client population, and your team’s challenges when it comes to working with clients with scoliosis
2) We’ll offer several of the many (so many!) options for topics and design a customized flow of information together
3) Choose your workshop option (listed below), ideal scheduling, and preferred platform (virtual or in-person)
If you’re a healthcare professional who has already received training in one of the recognized schools of Scoliosis-Specific Physiotherapeutic Exercises (PSSE), and you’re looking for guidance in putting your training into practice for your scoliosis clients, then our External Mentorship option may be the right fit for you. We encourage YOU to assess your learning needs to determine the topics and flow of these personalized sessions.
Some possible topics to discuss are:
Fee: $200 CAD per hour
To maximize our time together, we ask that you send a list of questions or client cases prior to the Mentoring session. You’ll be paired with a senior therapist, who will prepare accordingly for the session.
*Note: We acknowledge that varying currency exchange rates may create financial barriers for therapists in some countries. Group mentoring is available for up to 5 colleagues/peers to enable custom learning while maintaining small group learning dynamics.
