For those of you who haven't heard of our amazing new method of presenting continuing education, here is how the On-Live Seminar Works.
A student has access to all of the material online prior to the live portion of the course. We use interactive video presentation for our courses as well as downloadable pdf's.
The student need not worry about getting a good seat or contorting themselves to see the material. Everyone has a front row seat!
The movies are shown at different angles so you are able to see everything that is going on during evaluation and treatment and if you don’t just hit rewind.
The student has access to the teacher via email to answer any questions along the way, 30 days prior and 30 days after the live class.
When the student arrives for the live portion already have a strong base of knowledge to help them. The live class is review and practice and best of all the students have access to the online material and teacher 30 days after the class.
Having exposure to the participants prior to class allows the teacher to customize the class based upon their needs.
Hosting facilities are provided the opportunity to bring in their appropriate patients to be treated by the therapists.
This allows the students to apply the material on an appropriate patient population to see the techniques at work while having the supervision of the instructor when needed.
It is great PR for the hosting facility as their patients are getting an additional treatment from an expert in the field.
Hosting facilities can choose to use the patient care component as an opportunity for additional revenue.
I love teaching this way it is truly a win/win situation

What the heck is an On-Live Seminar
I am really excited to
share with you a new concept in continuing education that we have begun at
Signature Allied Strategies, the On-Live seminar.
I love it for so many
reasons:
- The system is cost and time effective. We are able to offer the same amount of CEU’s at 1/2 the cost.
- Students and educators need only spend only a ¼ of the time away from family, work and friends without sacrificing CEU’s and getting burnt out from too much material in such a short time.
- On-Live seminars offer individuals an opportunity to affordably maximize their learning experience.
- Individuals learn at their own pace and they have at least triple exposure to the material.
- Students have access to the teacher for 2 months to answer any questions.
- Students have the opportunity to practice the material on true patients and hosting facilities can bring in their own patients for the Live component of the seminar.
The
feedback from students and hosting facilities has been amazing!
Here is how it works:
A
student has access to all of the material online prior to the live portion
of the course. We use interactive video presentation for our courses as
well as downloadable pdf"s. The student need not worry about getting a
good seat or contorting themselves to see the material. Everyone
has a front row seat. The movies are shown at different angles so you are able
to see everything that is going on during evaluation and treatment and if you
don’t just hit rewind.
The
student has access to the teacher via email to answer any questions along the
way. When the student arrives for the live portion already have a strong base
of knowledge to help them. Having exposure to the participants prior to
class allows the teacher to customize the class based upon their needs. Hosting
facilities are provided the opportunity to bring in their appropriate patients
to be treated by the therapists. This allows the therapist to apply the
material on an appropriate patient population to see the techniques at work
while having the supervision of the instructor when needed. It is great PR for
the hosting facility as their patients are getting an additional treatment from
an expert in the field. Hosting facilities can choose to use the patient care
component as an opportunity for additional revenue.
Lastly
and really most important the material is kick ass. It is designed with the
goal of making our students more success and efficient therapist. The
evaluation is designed to teach students to target the areas
that their patient’s need to have treated.
This
system teaches evaluation and treatment as a well thought out process that
elicits great results in a very short period of time.
I
continue to firmly believe if you are not having great results with your
patient’s you are probably treating the wrong thing.
I
truly look forward to having the opportunity to work with each and every one of
you!

People have asked "if you were given only one area of the body to treat, what would it be?"
Answers by renowned therapists, have included
the psoas and coccyx.
For me it would be the feet.
A bonus for me in teaching my Balance Enhancement and Fall Prevention Class has been the knowledge and importance this anatomical structure is any standing individual.
- It is our Base of Support in
standing and therefore an integral component of Balance and Fall
Prevention.
- In my clinical experience 95%
of falls are contributed to from foot and ankle dysfunction.
- 84 % of 65 year olds have
structural dysfunction in their feet.
- Individuals increase their
chances of sustaining and injury due to a fall by 2 times if they are
unable to perform 1 legged stance for 5 seconds.
- A person must have 8 degrees of
ankle dorsiflexion with the knee extended and 10 degrees of motion with
the flexed to be at a decreased risk for falls.
- The Hallux and toes must have
90 degrees of extension is necessary for normal push off.
- It is the foundation of our
body. Misalignment at the foot will cause compensations and dysfunction up
the kinetic chain.
- By improving alignment at the
foot we can correct dysfunctions up the kinetic chain; knee, hip, pelvis,
etc...
- Proper functioning of the foot
is vital for efficient walking and any ADL's that is performed in
standing.
- Research shows that there is a
significant decrease in proprioception of the feet after 80 years of
age.
- We can halt the progression of
painful bunions, callouses and hammer toes as well as diminish the need
for orthotics.
