Participants will receive:
Evidence-informed, client-centered learning — rooted in anatomy, biomechanics, and soft-tissue / joint rehabilitation of the neck and clavicle
Hands-on instruction, guided landmark palpation, pressure modulation, ergonomics, and live demonstration of cervico-clavicular techniques.
Immersive peer-to-peer and instructor-to-participant exchange to deepen clinical reasoning.
Development of advanced therapeutic-analytical skills tailored to neck and clavicle dysfunctions.
Advanced manual therapy approaches combining soft-tissue release, joint mobilizations, and functional integration for assessment, treatment, and management of neck and clavicle.
Understand
How dysfunctions of the cervical spine and clavicle can present as neck pain, restricted range of motion, postural imbalances, thoracic outlet–type symptoms, shoulder-neck referral pain, cervicogenic headaches, and cervicogenic dizziness.
Key contraindications and red flags for manual therapy in neck and clavicle presentations — and how to adapt your approach accordingly.
Learn
Detailed neck and clavicle anatomy, biomechanics and relevant functional relationships.
Evidence-informed assessment protocols, including active and passive range of motion, joint play, soft-tissue palpation, clavicle mobility, and neurological screening when indicated.
How to build individualized treatment and self-care plans — including manual therapy, corrective exercise, and patient education — to maximize compliance and patient outcomes.
Acquire
A thorough understanding of common and complex presentations: e.g. cervical-clavicular anatomy
Confidence with advanced techniques: soft-tissue release, joint mobilization and clavicular mobilization.
Become
Competent, efficient, and safe when assessing and treating neck and clavicle dysfunctions — ready to integrate these skills into your clinical practice.
Skilled at incorporating manual therapy into comprehensive rehab plans that address posture, mobility, function, and long-term maintenance.
New referral pathways — from physiotherapists, chiropractors, orthopaedic centres, postural or ergonomic clinics, neurologists, sports medicine doctors, and general practitioners.
Apply
Hands-on techniques and assessment protocols learned during the course in clinical settings to improve mobility, reduce pain, enhance posture, relieve neurovascular compression, and enhance mechanics.
Integrated treatment plans combining manual therapy, home exercises, self-care strategies, posture/ergonomics advice, and patient education — aimed at sustainable long-term outcomes.
