Course Overview

This pop-up course provides a comprehensive introduction to joint thrust techniques focused on the cranio-thoracic (CT) junction to the mid-thoracic spine. Participants will learn the anatomy, indications, contraindications, and hands-on application of thrust techniques for enhanced patient outcomes.

The course will cover a variety of techniques, including distraction methods, seated techniques, as well as approaches for both supine and prone positions, along with High-Velocity Low-Amplitude (HVLA) techniques.

Course Objectives

• Understand the anatomy and biomechanics of the CT junction and mid-thoracic spine.
• Learn the principles and indications for joint thrust techniques.
• Develop practical skills in safely and effectively applying thrust techniques in clinical practice.
• Enhance assessment and treatment strategies for patients with thoracic dysfunction.

Additional Notes

• Wear comfortable clothing that allows access to the spine for practical sessions.
• Class size is limited to ensure personalized attention and hands-on practice.
• Consider follow-up advanced courses focusing on additional regions of the spine or more complex techniques.
• Certification, CEU and manuals are not included.
• Pop-up course materials are based on our CEU-approved courses.

Pop-up courses are customizable sessions designed primarily to review previously learned techniques and lectures while also introducing additional taping methods that were not included in the certification course.
