Program Information:
Today's clinicians are challenged to resolve patient problems in
increasingly shorter time frames. This intermediate course provides
the clinician with practical, evidence based biofeedback tools for
achieving motor control quickly
during closed chain lower extremity functional activities. The goal
of the course is to provide an interactive environment to discuss the
kinematics of normal functional motion and to apply biofeedback to
evaluate and correct that motion. Lab presentations will include
gait analysis, single leg step up/step down and sit to stand with a
focus on the kinematics of skeletal segments in the lower
extremities.
Emphasis is placed on identifying and correcting the underlying
problematic motion using visual
biofeedback. The clinicians attending this
course will be able to immediately apply this information in the
clinical setting.
Program Instructor:
Wendy Stimson, PT, MBA
graduated from California State University, Fresno in 1979. She has
been in private practice in Los Altos, California for the last 20
years. Wendy developed and has successfully used this biofeedback
technique for the last 5 years.
