Treatment Protocols and Rehabilitation in a Post-COVID World
*Virtual* November 20-21, 12 CEU Seminar

Working and learning from home may be the new ‘normal’ for some individuals given the COVID-19 pandemic—but a major downside has emerged: New or worsening back, neck, leg, and shoulder pain has increased among telecommuters. Muscle atrophy can increase as much as 1-1.5% per day due to limited use. As the population weakens, functional adaptation occurs.

Dr. Mario Fucinari will guide you through the proper methods to treat the patient through proper documentation, examination, rehabilitation and case management.
