Using the Natural Environment as a Modality in Physical Therapy: Community Integration

Speaker: Steven Mandley, PT

Course Description:

To the recovering individual and their family, independence means more than just the absence of physical assistance. Learn how to manipulate your surroundings and use the environment your patient is in as a modality in your treatment. The techniques presented in this session can help you to reveal your patients true functional impairments. Moreover, it can help you to train your patient based on the expectations set by their everyday environment, moving the patient toward independence.

Intended Audience: Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants and Students
