Chronic Pain Management Through Aquatic Therapy
Presented by Andrea Salzman, MS, PT
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5438Level: Introductory2 Hours
Discover evidence-based strategies for integrating aquatic therapy into chronic pain management. This introductory 2-hour webinar explores how water's unique physical properties—buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, and thermal effects—create an optimal environment for therapeutic exercise in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain. Participants will learn the physiological mechanisms underlying aquatic therapy's effectiveness, practical protocols for common chronic pain conditions including low back pain, osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia, and essential safety considerations. Through examination of recent clinical trials and systematic reviews, attendees will gain immediately applicable knowledge to implement aquatic therapy programs that reduce pain, improve function, and enhance quality of life for their patients.

Managing Spasticity and Tone in SCI Rehabilitation
Presented by Lauren Young, PT, DPT, NCS, CSRS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5396Level: Advanced2 Hours
This course breaks down the science behind why spasticity develops after spinal cord injury, how to measure it accurately, and what the evidence says about treating it. Along the way we will challenge common clinical assumptions and build a practical framework for deciding when to treat, when to hold back, and how to work effectively with the rest of the interdisciplinary team for better patient outcomes. Whether you are new to SCI rehabilitation or looking to sharpen your clinical reasoning, participants will leave with a practical outcome measure battery, an evidence-based intervention framework, and a working knowledge of pharmacological and interventional options directly relevant to their practice.

Presented by Jennifer Gardner-Harbison, PT, DPT, MHA, CWS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5439Level: Advanced2 Hours
This advanced webinar enhances clinical reasoning skills for evidence-based wound dressing selection. Participants will analyze wound characteristics, healing progression, and patient-specific factors to determine appropriate escalation, transition, or de-escalation of dressings using current peer-reviewed evidence and clinical guidelines. Emphasis is placed on mechanism-driven decision making, skilled documentation, and interdisciplinary communication to optimize patient outcomes.

Evidence Based Physical Therapy Interventions for Huntington’s Disease
Presented by Chelsea Richardson, PT, DPT, NCS
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5437Level: Introductory1.5 Hours
This course will detail the pathophysiology, etiology, incidence/prevalence, clinical manifestations and PT considerations for assessment and treatment when working with individuals with Huntington's Disease.

Taping for the Lower Extremity
Presented by Alex Siyufy, PT, DPT, SCS, ATC, Cert. MDT, CPAM, Cert. DN, SFMA
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5436Level: Introductory2 Hours
This course provides practical lower-extremity taping strategies you can use right away in the clinic. You’ll learn both rigid (McConnell-style) and elastic kinesiology taping techniques to help reduce pain, improve movement, and support healing. We’ll focus on common conditions you see every week, including patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), plantar fasciitis, shin pain, and lower extremity tendon issues. You’ll also learn effective arch support taping and how taping can help guide alignment and offload irritated tissues. Designed for both new and experienced clinicians, this course builds confidence in your taping skills while helping you think through when, why, and how to use each technique for the greatest impact in rehab and performance care.
