The development of these skills will build and further optimize the student’s ability to critically think and apply skills to address a patient or client’s individual healthcare needs through prescription, administering, and assessment of therapeutic interventions. Topics in this course include but are not limited to manual therapy, spine and upper\ extremity rehabilitation exercise, complementary healthcare intervention, and psychology of sport rehabilitation.
