FEEDBACK FROM FELLOW CLINICIANS ON RECENT COURSES:
MDT is a game changer in my Physiotherapy practice, patients recover so fast once directional preference is identified.
I feel that the MDT courses have advanced my practice knowledge by multiple years and instilled more confidence when treating more complicated patients.
I feel so much more confident treating complex and unusual symptomatic patients with the MDT system.
My knowledge of MDT increased significantly, particularly with the amount of different options/variations there are w/ assessment and treatment, e.g., the lateral component and how many different options there are to try to incorporate that into an exercise. I have also learned the significant benefits of force progressions and not needing to immediately perform manual therapy on someone before doing a proper movement screen and giving the patient the opportunity to self-manage.
