Course
Description: The fascial system has been gaining importance in the diagnosis and treatment of locomotor problems. In addition to adhesions and shortening, as fascia also has nerve endings, it also has a role in pain and motor coordination. The IASTM (Instrumented Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization), Cupping and Flossing techniques will be presented in theory and practice to show how this fast and effective technique can assist in rehabilitation.
The kinesiology taping technique, widely used in humans, is now growing rapidly for small animals. This course empowers participants to use the kinesiology taping technique, an important physical therapy modality that can be used alone or as a complement to other techniques. Some of the benefits that this technique brings to the animal patient include: pain reduction, edema reduction, increased mobility of scars, improvement of proprioception, influence the kinetic lines, compress or decompress structures and correction of posture or abnormal movement. The practical part will demonstrate the application of the technique in the most common orthopedic problems in small animals.
