Overview
This month we're going to be discussing Embodia's new patient experience and web app plus hearing from our esteemed guest instructor on novel exercises for the nervous system.
Novel exercises for the nervous system
Join internationally respected physiotherapist and pain science educator Carolyn Vandyken, BHSc (PT), for this free, live webinar on using novel, non-threatening exercises to support patients with central sensitization and altered sensory-motor representations.
These movement strategies, rooted in the principles of Eric Franklin and Moshe Feldenkrais, are designed to help retrain the cortical maps of body parts affected by:
- Chronic pain
- Muscle tension and spasms
- Stiffness
- Movement avoidance
- Other top-down nervous system responses
The exercises discussed are based on Carolyn's resource packages on Embodia including Novel Exercises for a Sensitive Nervous System.
New patient experience & web app
We will also discuss the release of Embodia's new progressive web app. We will take a tour of the new patient experience, including how patient's view and track their exercise programs, complete questionnaires and diaries, share notes with their practitioner, schedule appointments, pay invoices, and more!
The new progressive web app will also provide clinic's with the opportunity to have their own branded app for complete practice management.
