MSK Foot & Ankle: Holistic Management & Treatment Strategies – Preston 26-27 February 2024

Course description:

This 2 day face-to-face short course offers participants an opportunity to learn about the orthotic management of泭musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders of the foot and ankle in a group setting (maximum 16 participants). The experienced faculty of two Orthotists will share their knowledge and skills in both theory and practical sessions.

Prior to the commencement of the course, registrants will be asked to read four designated full text journal articles. During the course, participants will attend taught theoretical sessions mixed with active learning which will involve dividing into smaller groups to interpret x-rays and assess each others feet and ankles with feedback and guidance from the faculty team.

The course offers participants an intimate, focused, and friendly learning environment away from the bustle of everyday clinical work to refresh their knowledge with best available evidence and equip them with the skills to enable them to build their confidence and MSK practice.

Aims:
This event aims to equip Orthotists and other AHPs regularly involved in treating adult MSK foot and ankle泭conditions with the assessment, diagnostic and image interpretation skills to enable them to differentially diagnose and holistically manage Musculoskeletal foot and ankle conditions.
