Diagnosis and Classification of Spondyloarthropathies

Thank you for another wonderful webinar by Chris Martey, who is very knowledgeable! His contagious passion and interest in this topic came across during this presentation. He was an incredible totem for providing holistic, whole-person care and sharing how physical therapists are ideal healthcare providers to fill this role. I gained a lot of helpful information and common diagnoses, and I plan to apply this knowledge to my clinical practice ASAP. Thank you again!

Differentiating Inflammatory and Mechanical Back Pain

This is definitely a great course where you can revise information learnt at university. It is worthwhile to refresh your knowledge about differential diagnoses as well as the different outcome measures that can be used to make a diagnosis as well as track progress.
