25.01.2022 Aqua Bag Pertubation Training: Integrating The Lunge with Press I recently purchased an aqua bag (bag partially filled with water) and the challenge with this t...raining tool is that one must stabilise and control the bag that has a moving load within it. This product and concept of instability training has been around for a long time now, however I was recently stimulated to add this into my training after seeing Frans Bosch speak in Sydney last year as well as having read his book "Strength training and coordination: an integrative approach".

04.01.2022 We have just lauched some exciting new services at CWHA that look to introduce some stretching and strengthening workers. Ideal for the office worker or worker... dealing with manual handling on a day to day basis. The aim of this is to identify where the body is being stressed and provide you with some simple self management strategies to implement in the workplace. Please note: The ultimate goal of a good OHS management plan is to eliminate hazards and risks in the workplace through elimination, substitution or engineering controls. Sometimes this is not entirely possible and we believe it is important to also provide the individual with some strategies to help the body.

01.01.2022 Using psychological pain management tools and new ways of communicating with your patients in a physical therapy setting Is your way of explaining persistent pa...in to your patients who have sensitisation simple and effective? What do you do when you have opioid dependent patients who are de-conditioned due to fear avoidance to help them change their perspective and motivate them? Do you think that central sensitisation which is the result of persistent pain can be reversed through controlling thoughts, feelings and behaviours? Pain research and new psychological self management methods of dealing with persistent pain can be a method for your patients to improve that moves them beyond talking to doing and living. Causes of persistent pain are often unknown, pain is not what its seems and pain myths are everywhere so we need to help our patients find a way to learn about pain that enhances their capacity to live the life they want. Watch this video to get an idea of what we will cover in the workshop https://noijam.com/2018/03/13/building-a-model-of-pain/ What you will get from attending this course: techniques you can introduce to your patients next appointment who have persistent pain, self-management tools you can refer your patients to who have tried everything (e.g. the brain changer http://brainchanger.io/) , ways of talking to patients who are stuck in their view of their pain and disability and where to find other health professionals who specialise in persistent/treatment resistant pain management and how would you know when you found them (what to ask to check them out!) evidence based ways of communicating with patients that move beyond basic empathy and help you to get unstuck with patients who are not progressing in their treatment by having change-orientated conversations that help you and your patient. DATE Saturday May 12th 2018 LOCATION Treacy Centre, Parkville, Melbourne TIME 9:00 5:00pm (registrations start at 8:40am) INVESTMENT $330 (inc GST) INCLUDES Workshop, Lunch & Snacks CPD 6 hours WHO Osteopaths, Physiotherapists, Chiropractors, Myo, EPs NOTE This course will be limited to a maximum of 30 attendees Pain Management & Motivational Interviewing 12th May 2018 Registration Form Workshop Facilitator and MC: Heath Williams (osteopath) Presenters: Helen Mentha is a clinical psychologist and member of the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT).

WORKSHOP DETAILS AM SESSION - Using psychological pain management tools in a physical therapy setting If pain is an affective and sensory experience (IASP definition) and persistent pain appears to be centrally controlled (by the CNS) rather than peripherally, then what is going to help with a patient who is not responding to standard treatment? The first half of this one-day course will address our understanding of what mediates pain and the nexus between psychological reactions and physical injuries/conditions. Fear avoidance, low self efficacy, and personality style/beliefs are known to predict outcomes with persistent pain. We will cover: Quick overview of psychology and pain science: where are we up to with what causes persistent pain and disability? Tips for treating a patient with persistent pain and a psychological condition that is either consequent to their physical problems or has developed subsequent to them that you can use in your clinical context What to say and how to say it. using psychological ideas to do better with goal setting, behavioural prescription and treatment adherence. Referral to psychologistsnot all are equally up to this kind of workhow to find the right one. AFTERNOON SESSION - Motivational Interviewing and conversations about change The second half of the program will focus on principles and skills from Motivational Interviewing that can help us to navigate difficult conversations about change, where reluctance and ambivalence are common. We will cover: Useful roadmaps for the change process and the change conversation - ways to identify where are they at in relation to change? and where are we at in relation to this conversation? Creating shared focus when clinician and client goals are out of sync Working with ambivalence and the yes, but conversation Connecting with meaning and building momentum for change.
