Taping for the Upper Extremity
Presented by Alex Siyufy, PT, DPT, SCS, ATC, Cert. MDT, CPAM, Cert. DN, SFMA
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5435Level: Introductory2 Hours
This course provides a practical, evidence-informed overview of therapeutic taping, including traditional rigid (inelastic) methods (e.g., McConnell-style techniques) and elastic kinesiology taping for common clinical goals such as unloading (deloading), facilitation, and inhibition to support participation in daily activities. Participants will review the current research base with a focused emphasis on cervical spine and upper extremity applications, including conditions such as lateral epicondylitis, upper crossed syndrome, carpal tunnel syndrome, rib fractures, and myofascial trigger points. Designed for both taping newcomers and experienced clinicians, the course covers foundational application skills alongside up-to-date parameters and strategy selection based on recent literature.

Acute SCI Management: What to Do and Why It Matters
Presented by Allyson Muehlemann, PT, DPT, EdD, NCS
Live WebinarWed, Jul 1, 2026 at 6:00 pm EDT
Course: #5442Level: Advanced3 Hours
Acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is clinically complex and often unpredictable, with patients presenting as medically fragile and at high risk for secondary complications. In this environment, physical therapists are required to make rapid, high-stakes decisions while balancing safety, recovery potential, and medical stability. This course introduces a practical clinical framework designed to guide prioritization of assessment and intervention in the acute phase of SCI. The focus is on helping clinicians identify what matters most, when it matters most, in order to support safe progression of mobility and recovery. Emphasis is placed on managing common acute challenges such as respiratory compromise, cardiovascular instability, autonomic dysfunction, and immobility-related complications. Participants will learn how to structure evaluation and treatment strategies that are both efficient and purposeful within medically complex presentations. Ultimately, this framework is designed to support clinicians in preparing patients for the next phase of rehabilitation by optimizing early decision-making, maximizing functional potential, and reducing preventable secondary complications.

Primary Care for Rehabilitation Providers: The Facts on Aging, Sleep, Physical Activity, Nutrition, Social Connection and More!
Presented by Mike Studer, PT, DPT, MHS, NCS, CEEAA, CWT, CSST, CBFP, CSRP, FAPTA
Recorded Webinar
Course: #5431Level: Advanced3 Hours
Science continues to ask the question about aging, “Is aging due to nature (our genes) or nurture (our lifestyle)?” A related question is now directed at our healthspan – how long can we live without disability or illness? In this course, Dr. Mike Studer brings the science and scope of practice-sensitivity to rehabilitation providers aspiring to improve comprehensive health and wellness for their patients, their loved ones, and themselves. This course provides applications in healthspan and lifespan that we can apply now as a primary care provider – but also - choose for ourselves, across five categories of life: physical activity, sleep, nutrition, social connection, and the health benefits of extreme experiences or “outside of your comfort zone”. It is time for rehabilitation providers to truly know, understand, educate-on and deliver the science of health and wellness. This course will elevate practitioners’ capacities with theory, science and applications – all while empowering their patients with the most valuable tool of all – evidence based options from which to exercise the element of choice.
