Course description
This highly practical and Evidence-Based course focus on enhancing your skills in shoulder assessment and effective rehabilitation strategies to manage the most common shoulder injuries seen in overhead athletes. Moreover, this course will also address how to enhance performance and preventive strategies for shoulder injuries, for both the youth athlete and the senior athlete. The course explores throwing biomechanics, provides an overview of how biomechanics and workload are linked to shoulder injuries and performance and how to implement and address this in a clinical setting.
The course is open for all practitioners looking to deepen their knowledge in injury mechanisms and management of shoulder injuries as well as performance enhancement with focus on overhead athletes.
Learning Objectives
- Understand throwing mechanics and throwing related injuries
- Understand the latest research relating to the mechanisms and aetiology of shoulder injuries and throwing performance how this applies to clinical management
- Demonstrate accurate and objective diagnosis and assessment of shoulder injuries seen in overhead athletes (including differential diagnosis and assessment of flexibility, strength, biomechanics and power etc.)
- Set up rehabilitation strategies for shoulder injuries and return to play criteria/tests for overhead athletes
- Understand how to monitor sport specific workload in overhead athletes and how to implementing this in the clinical setting
- Understand how to build training programmes that increase both performance and reduce risk of shoulder injuries
