Upper Extremity and Spine Sports Dry Needling Class (12 hours)

This class offers an information packed 12 hours of instruction with large amounts of practice time.

We start with class with a comprehensive discussion of the history of dry needling, a discussion of trigger points and what they’re all about, different forms of dry needling, how dry needling is different from acupuncture, how/when/where to use the dry needles, and more.

Elbow injuries are common with golf and other sports!

We then breakdown the actual sports dry needling instruction into regions and go from there.  What makes Sportsdryneedling.org classes special is that due to the depth of material covered, each class, even with the same material, will be quite different.  How is this possible?

Well, let’s say we have a lot of practitioners who work with shoulder injuries vs. thoracic spine injuries, it’s likely we’ll ‘ll be spending more time on the shoulder and the supportive procedures as opposed to the thoracic spine.  The next upper extremity and spine class might be the opposite.  Let’s say a particular class decides to spend a lot of time on elbow issues and supportive procedures?  Well, you get the idea.  Each class will likely be quite different and this is a great thing.

Whereas as the base material must be the same (for credentialing reasons), the specific amount of time spent on particular areas may differ based on the needs of the particular class.  We find this to be a huge advantage with our classes.  We are teaching this for you!  We want you to be the best sports dry needling expert in your area!

Spine injuries are all too common with athletes

Now back to the material…  The regions we cover in this class will be the pelvis/lumbar spine/hip, thoracic spine, cervical spine, face/jaw, shoulder, and elbow.  For each region, we will discuss anatomy, considerations, research, approaches to treatment, supportive therapies, case studies, and more.

Again, this class is packed with information that you can use to help your patients the moment you step back into your office.
