Research tells us that exercise increases resilience and decreases pain. It empowers patients and helps them help themselves. It is good for preventing persistent pain and treating it. This course will provide you with a grid of how to assess each patient and what exercise tools you can use.

We do practical sessions on assessment tools and specific treatments, including motor imagery. We look at how the immune system and autonomic nervous system respond to exercise. We explore some common conditions including OA, fibromyalgia, long Covid and back pain.

We want you to come away from the course feeling confident to use exercise as one of your main treatments. We use research, experience and brainstorming to get you there.
