With obesity and diabetes at record levels there is a pressing need for weight loss protocols that work.
Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) is the latest in a long line of 'miracle' weight loss drugs and millions of people worldwide are now taking it.
This session examines the pros and cons of this latest pharmaceutical fix and explores safe and effective alternative natural and nutritional weight loss strategies.
This 2-hour webinar will provide participants with the most updated Evidence Based Approach about evaluation and treatment of patients with temporomandibular disorders and orofacial pain. We will discuss the role of masticatory muscles and the TMJ in relation to the diagnosis of orofacial pain for determining the most appropriate clinical reasoning to be applied.
The voluntary slowing down of breath frequency is a powerful aspect of meditative practices and induces strong psychophysiological changes in the brain and body. The lecture aims to elucidate the psychophysiological mechanisms linking breath control to its positive effects and impact on health and well-being. It will focus on autonomic changes, brain activity and connectivity modifications (assessed with the EEG and fMRI), and cognitive function and emotion regulation improvements.
Are you still prescribing proprioceptive exercises to "improve balance" or "prevent injury"? Are you relying on outdated theories that continue to perpetuate common myths in rehabilitation and training? It’s time to challenge your assumptions.
Join Proprioceptive Exercise: A Misconception, a thought-provoking lecture designed to revolutionise the way you approach balance, proprioception, and neuromuscular control in your clinical practice. This course will take you on a deep dive into the scientific literature, dismantling long-held beliefs and replacing them with a grounded understanding of proprioception and it's role in human movement and recovery.
In this lecture, Dr. Keith Baar will present a comprehensive approach that integrates biomechanics, rehabilitation principles, and nutrition to promote tendon and ligament health.
This course explores the structure and function of tendons and ligaments, comparing their characteristics in healthy and injured states. Students will gain an understanding of viscoelasticity and examine the mechanical behaviour of healthy tendons.
The lecture will also delve into the physiological changes that occur in tendons during immobilisation, as well as the minimal effective loading dose required to maintain the health of tendons, ligaments, and bones. Additionally, the course will contrast the effects of different types of loads on both healthy and injured tendons.
Finally, participants will be introduced to the scientific evidence supporting the use of nutritional supplements to enhance tendon recovery and outcomes.
'Metabolism' is a word often used but seldom understood. This session clears up common misconceptions and explores how understanding metabolism can help with weight control, healthy ageing, human performance and vitality.
Examples of diet, supplement and exercise approaches to modulate metabolism in beneficial ways will be discussed.
Updated Evidence Based Approach about evaluation and treatment of headache patients. The first step will be to identify the most predominant headache in our patient for determining the most appropriate clinical reasoning.
It will also include a comprehensive presentation on the most updated findings related to sensory and motor impairments of the cervical spine and how they are clinically relevant for head pain and we will propose the clinical reasoning for their management.
Current evidence shows the role of musculoskeletal impairments in the cervical spine which has set the stage for a multisystem approach of evaluation, treatment and management of headache patients. Come and find out why manual therapy works for headaches, integrating their inputs into the central nervous system.
The lecture will explore relationships between cardio-respiratory interoception and mental health. Interoception, defined as the brain's representation of internal physiological states, encompasses the sensing, interpreting, and integrating of bodily signals. The presentation will examine how interoceptive processes influence mental health, addressing cognitive biases, distorted sensitivity, and impaired insight found in mental health disorders. Special emphasis is given to cardiac interoception, including EEG-based studies, to show their applications in understanding anxiety, depression, alexithymia, and other mental disorders, and to inform mental health interventions.
This 2-day course explores the concept of ‘Membrain Health’, describing how the behaviour and long-term health of the brain is reliant on the condition of its local physical environment.
In this interesting weekend aided by our guest speaker we look at the development and function of the gut, kidneys, and urinary systems as they progress towards maturity.
