Course description: Identifying Invisible Influencers (3i)
This course will allow the participant to be able to understand the principles and identification of restrictions to function that are not easily identified by traditional clinical observations. The 3i Course (Identifying Invisible Influencers) will be valuable to the provider who is interested in supporting improved patient care by becoming familiar with restrictions that are neurological, fascial and metabolic The 3i course is designed to help providers identify restrictions to patient responses that are metabolic, functional and neurologic in origin including:
The Past 1 LIVE VIRTUAL Intro to Concepts Course will give a brief overview of the topics to be covered in more depth at the Part 2 LIVE HANDS ON COURSE
Attendees of the Part 1 portion of the course will be given VIP access to the Part 2 Hands On Course once the date is announced for 2023. You need not have attended the virtual course to attend the in person one ;)
