Andy McDonald – Strength & Conditioning For Rehab Professionals

ARE YOU PROVIDING HIGH PERFORMANCE REHAB?

THE PROBLEM…

You’ve qualified clinically, you’ve potentially done a residency and you’ve maybe even completed a strength and conditioning accreditation or masters, yet you’re still not confident or able to deliver effective late stage rehab – let alone improve physical performance. But why?….

The physical demands & athletic standards an athlete must achieve in elite sport far exceed the scope of traditional clinical education. Then educational options traditionally available to up-skill on strength and conditioning (where you could learn about greater athleticism) is never contextual to rehab. So there’s a large knowledge gap to overcome before you can confidently provide rehab to high-performers… What can you do?…
