Sterling Richards, Exercise Physiologist, NCAA All American Athlete, Physical Therapy student and Licensed Massage Therapist, presents this incredible seminar, Sports Massage and Treating the Injured Athlete.
Sterling combines the techniques learned from Swedish massage and Clinical treatment of injuries, as well as evaluations of the muscular skeletal system to help with defining the limitations of the injury as well as the stage of injury and healing.
In this course, the student will expound on the sport specific techniques they have already developed in order to treat athletes in all stages of their injury and recovery process.
Students will perform posture analysis, evaluate joint mobility, determine abnormalities in joints and learn how to execute orthopedic tests used for evaluation.
