Learn Joint Manipulation (JMN1) in Phoenix, AZ on Jun 15th, 2024

Phoenix, AZ on June 15-16, 2024: Learn Joint Manipulation from Structure & Function Education with our Foundations in Joint Manipulation (JMN1) course. This 20-hour lab-based course gives the clinician a foundation in a focused approach to joint manipulation. The primary purpose is to help a clinician lessen pain and improve range of motion for patients, helping patients move and feel better after loss of functional mobility from an injury or illness. The clinician will learn fundamental skills necessary for safe and effective manipulation of a joint which involves applying force to the spinal or peripheral joints to improvement movement.

Safety considerations are emphasized. Current science and research will be presented, along with a vast amount of clinical experience, allowing immediate application of manipulative techniques into the clinicians’ professional practice. A two-day course, comprised of 80% practical and 20% didactic training is designed to concentrate on the development of the psychomotor skills needed to deliver manipulation safely and effectively to the spine and extremities.
