Neural Mobilisation for nerve-related musculoskeletal

Nerve-related musculoskeletal conditions are common and often complicate the presentation of conditions such as neck pain and back pain. Accurate diagnosis and management of these conditions are challenging. Neurodynamics / neural mobilisation is often used in clinical practice to address neural tissue disorders. This course is designed for all therapists who work with patients with nerve-related conditions such as lumbar radiculopathy and carpal tunnel syndrome. The aim of this course is to provide a clear, evidence-based approach to the management of nerve-related conditions using neurodynamics / neural mobilisation. A key goal would be for you to leave with things that will help you classify and diagnose the conditions and manage it effectively.
