I’m an Occupational Therapist and work in an outpatient setting. I use the knowledge gained from the biomechanics method primarily to work with patients who have upper extremity pain and dysfunction. The course was great! I spent a lot of time reviewing information. I’m still considering purchasing the book. I do prefer written vs electronic😊

I’m so glad I took this course! I was really unsure about buying it but I’m glad I did. I couldn’t stop myself from trying to learn more. I started using what I was learning right away (even on myself) and am seeing some great things so far.
