APPLIED BIOMECHANICS
Details:
This hands-on workshop will equip participants with practical skills in motion capture, force analysis, strength testing, and anthropometry. This course bridges the gap between theory and real-world application, helping professionals refine their assessment techniques for rehabilitation and performance enhancement.
PRE-REQUISITE: "FUNDAMENTALS OF BIOMECHANICS" COURSE IS RECOMMENDED BEFORE REGISTERING FOR THIS COURSE!
While many clinicians understand biomechanical principles in theory, the true power comes from applying these concepts through modern assessment technologies. This intensive 2-day workshop provides direct, hands-on experience with motion capture systems, force plates, dynamometry, and anthropometric measurement tools that are revolutionizing clinical assessment. You'll learn to collect, process, and interpret biomechanical data that informs diagnosis, tracks progress, and optimizes treatment outcomes.
