COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This
course will give the participants hands-on and ready-to-implement
equipment-based progressions for their patients’ orthopedic rehabilitation
needs. The correct use and biomechanical advantages in form for
progressions and regressions of all major joints will be addressed. The
focus will be on the types of equipment (buoyant, resistant and weighted) and their purpose in stability, mobility, and
strength for orthopedic progressions. The types of equipment for the
early-to-progressed phases of rehabilitation will be outlined to promote the
therapeutic to the transitioning phases of recovery. This course will also
demonstrate the correlation of specific equipment to directly impact the
transition from aquatic to land-based functioning.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
1.
Feel confident in the use of aquatic equipment for
progressions and regressions for orthopedic concerns.
2.
Examine how function in all proximal and more
distally-placed joints changes with equipment (feet and ankles, knees, hips,
lumbar and cervical spine, shoulders, elbows, and wrists).
3.
Choose equipment for goal-focused stability, mobility, and
strength/endurance orthopedic progressions
4.
Apply the use of equipment (and the types of equipment) for
different phases of rehabilitation - from therapeutic needs to the transitional
conditioning phases
5.
Demonstrate the equipment that transitions aquatic exercise
to land-based eccentric muscular control promoting functional activities in
daily life
