Weekend One – Introduction
This weekend is a pre-requisite course in order to complete the COMT.
Day 1: Advancing the Understanding of Manual Therapy and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Concepts - This day introduces the NZMPA Certificate in OMT, contextualises the philosophy of the programme and discusses its position within musculoskeletal physiotherapy education on national and international level. This first day delivers content that forms the very underpinning of best practice as a considered clinician including clinical reasoning and diagnostics and how these are influenced by factors such as diagnostic accuracy.
Day 2: Exercise Testing and Prescription - This day covers the scientific basis and principles of exercise testing and prescription. It will evaluate current best practice, drawing on relevant contemporary literature to analyse underpinning neurological, musculoskeletal and systemic pathophysiology, exercise testing strategies and exercise prescription. There will be a strong clinical focus to this day.
