Mobile Electrode Technique (MET) and Electrical Stimulation to Enhance Rehabilitation Outcomes
February 25, 2012-New Orleans, LA
Go beyond traditional electrical stimulation with this one day hands on course. This unique e-stim treatment approach is user and patient friendly. The course offers protocols for multiple rehabilitation applications. The “Mobile Electrode Technique”(MET) is a moveable e-stim application that brings much more flexibility to treatment compared to the static limitations of traditional e-stim. It’s simple and precise. MET will be discussed, demonstrated and practiced as a means to enhance clinical applications in which e-stim is integrated for therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, patient education and other therapeutic interventions. This technique allows the clinician to integrate e-stim; for more types of therapeutic interventions and for a wider range of patients.
Note: Bring appropriate clothing for labs (shorts, short sleeve shirt, etc)
