3 Ceu's Package, Dr Eyal Lederman - PhD in Physiotherapy (PT)

In this online video workshop Dr. Eyal Lederman will explore the role of proprioception in human movement, how this system is affected and recovers in musculoskeletal and pain conditions and how this recovery can be enhanced in rehabilitation.

Proprioception is an area in physical therapies and training where facts are mixed with therapeutic myths to the detriment of effective management. This workshop will aim to untangle this mix and provide the participants with a better understanding of how to work more effectively with proprioception.

Other topics explored in the workshop include:

• Can the motor system be controlled by proprioceptors, i.e. control of muscle tone?

• Are there proprioceptive specific exercises?

• Is fascia the largest sensory organ in the body?

• Can proprioception improve/recover with manual therapy?

3 Ceu's Package, Prof Tim Watson - PhD BSc MCSP DipTp

In this online video workshop Prof. Tim Watson will examine the processes underlying tissue repair. There will be a discussion of the research, exploring the key events, control systems and the various influences of therapy interventions. This knowledge will provide a clinical basis for future treatment and an enhanced rationale for clinical decision-making in this area.

The content of the online workshop will remain clinically relevant to enable immediate application.

A range of Electrophysical Modalities have an evidenced role in facilitating the repair of injured tissues. They are not equal in either their effects on the process nor the mechanisms through which they work. They are not best employed in isolation, but in conjunction with other interventions to provide an optimal care package. This online session aims to look at which of the modalities has a beneficial evidenced effect and in order to make the material clinically relevant and immediately applicable, we will consider how clinical decision making can be informed by the available evidence which modality to select and when and for what reason.

3 Ceu's Package, Dr. Adam Cunliffe - MSc and PhD in Human Nutrition

Alzheimer’s and dementia have recently become the leading cause of death in England. This session explores our understanding of the reasons for this dramatic rise in and the key role of nutrition and exercise in the delay and possible prevention of neurodegenerative disorders.

Also considered will be ways in which nutrition impacts neurodevelopment from foetus to adulthood. The latest perspectives on diet and targeted supplementation will be explored.

Recent advances in nutritional and ageing science at cellular and systems level have given real hope for increasing healthspan and lifespan in humans. By reducing the impact of age-related degenerative diseases and simultaneously delaying cellular senescence, significant increases in healthy longevity are possible.

Blue Zone diets and breakthrough supplements will be described and their impact on reducing age related muscle and bone loss examined. The inhibition of age-related glycation and the effects of fasting will also be explored with respect to their theoretical and evidenced ability to slow ageing in humans.

This video explores the basics of the immune system and the role of nutrition in maintaining best defence against infectious and non-infectious disease states. Topical examples from infectious and non-communicable diseases (cancer and cardiovascular disease) will be examined with effective practical diet and supplement advice on how to minimize both risks and consequences.

Evidence based but accessible, this Webinar is suitable for all those interested in how to optimize immune function using nutrition.

There is a powerful link between the brain and nutritional status. This video will examine how diet, mood and cognitive ability are linked and this knowledge can be applied. From the development of the nervous system through to impairment in cognitive capacity in old age, nutrition can play a key role in enhancing and protecting the functions of the central nervous system. Fatigue states, depression and eating disorders will be considered. Examples of nootropics, natural aphrodisiacs and sleep and relaxation aids will be given.
