The Advanced Dry Needling course for the Lower Half of the Body aims to teach course participants how to needle myofascial components from T7 down. This is a very practical course, including the teaching of advanced techniques around the thoracolumbar region, pelvis and lower limbs with particular emphasis on safety and efficacy. One of the major goals is for participants to integrate the use of dry needling into their clinical reasoning process and their clinical approach to treat common (and not so common) lower body conditions.

Case studies will be discussed to further enhance the clinical reasoning behind the use of dry needling, and its integration with other physiotherapy skill sets, such as manual therapy, muscle balancing, exercise prescription and postural advice.

Having taught over 200 introductory and advanced courses for AUT, PAANZ, the APA of Australia and Asia over the last 9 years. Trevor brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his teaching in this specialty area.
