New Courses 2011/2012 for past graduates

We have added a new Sports Management Diploma course and a Cranial Diploma Course to the college curriculum. People who have successfully completed the physical therapy course are eligible for entry. These are both one year part time diploma courses with some differences: no homework and only one final exam.

The Sports Management Course will deal with advanced sports injuries, x-ray diagnosis, lymphatic/neuromuscular massage and dry needling. This one year part time course will be of great benefit to anybody working in the sports injury field.

Sports Management Course

Course Outline

• Lymphatic/Neuromuscular massage techniques to upper and lower limbs.
• Advanced sports injuries to upper and lower limbs.
• Reading x-rays with injuries to upper and lower limbs.
• Dry needling to upper and lower limbs.
• Acupressure to upper and lower limbs.
• Shoulder/elbow-wrist/knee/foot-ankle.
• 10 weekends Sept/Oct 2010 to June 2011
• Assessing injuries on a field and how to treat.

Cranial Course

The Cranial course is a very gentle way of treating a host of complaints ranging from colic babies to adult T.M.J/headaches. This fascinating subject takes the student through the osteopathic approach to cranial treatment and how to treat babies with problems that relate to the birth process, to adults where physical therapy has not worked or the treatment has plateaued.

Manipulation Course 2011

If you are currently practising as a Physical Therapist, why not think about our advanced course on spinal manipulations?

The course commences in Sept 2011 and will cover all aspects of examination, diagnosing and treatment of somatic dysfunction of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine. The course will also examine disease processes that present as muscular skeletal pain in a clinical setting. The student will also cover radiography and pharmacology. The tutor team for this course is made up of doctors, osteopaths, radiographers and manipulative therapists. For more information on this course that will increase your understanding of patients who present with back pain in a clinical situation, contact the office or indeed look up the website for more information.
