The Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Examination and Treatment of the Cervical Spine CEU course is designed to foster the development of knowledge and skills germane to the examination of the cervical spine and the physical therapy management of patients with a variety of cervical conditions. Evaluation of the data gathered during examination should lead to the development of a physical therapy diagnosis and/or to the identification of manifestations that warrant communication with a physician.

 

Section content includes regional anatomy, biomechanics, examination tests and measures such as joint integrity and mobility, muscle performance and range of motion (including muscle length). In addition, physical therapy interventions including manual therapy techniques (soft tissue/joint mobilization) and therapeutic exercise intended to improve strength, range of motion and motor function are covered.   .
