Therapeutic Ultra Sound for the Upper Extremity

See all courses from

Instructor's Name: Michael Borst, MS, OTR, CHT

Therapeutic Ultrasound is a helpful adjunct in therapy, but clinical guidelines for dosage, technique, and efficacy are often vague or arbitrary. This course provides an in-depth examination of therapeutic ultrasound, emphasizing evidence-based practice. The above myths (and others) will be corrected, and the research regarding technique, efficacy, and dosage will be reviewed in depth, with applications that can be used immediately. Ultrasound technique will be practiced in lab. Participants will be given the opportunity to have their theoretical knowledge and ultrasound application skills evaluated at the end of the course; successful completion will be recognized with a statement that the participant demonstrated knowledge and skill in the use of therapeutic ultrasound (in addition to the CEU certificate).
