BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN ANATOMY & TREATMENT: AUGUST 16TH
with Great Lakes Seminars
- August 16-17, 2025
- at R2P - Gambrills
Most PT school programs only teach the actions of muscles. This course covers each muscle’s function and how to use anatomy to quickly find the driver of your patients’ dysfunction. You’ll learn how to palpate muscles to fix hypertonicity, weakness and inhibition so those dysfunctions don’t return, as well as evidence-based treatment for tendinosis and the functional retraining of muscles. All these techniques will enable you to direct your patients to a speedy and more successful recovery.
As with all our manual therapy courses, this course is at least 75% hands-on lab, and will give you skills you can use immediately upon returning to the clinic! Participants should have a basic knowledge of anatomy as this is an applied anatomy course.
Contact Hours: 16.5 in most States

DUNGEONS & DYNAMOMETERS: SEPTEMBER 13-14
with The Science PT
- September 13-14, 2025
- at R2P - Reston
Objective testing has taken the physical medicine domain by storm, prompting clinicians to explore more deliberate testing strategies in order to better test, track, and compare client outcomes. At the core of this initiative was a graduation from subjective “strength” testing, commonly seen as manual muscle testing, into more organized force testing areas, like dynamometry. While this agenda was a necessary and important component to evolve the profession, it unintentionally created a dilemma and challenge for clinicians in the field seeing clients. “How can I collect objective data using a dynamometer within my budget of time, resource, cost, and current understanding?” Thus, “Dungeons and Dynamometers: A Force Course” was created.

The Barbell Rehab Method: October 4-5
with Barbell Rehab
- October 4-5, 2025
- at R2P - Reston
Learn our step-by-step approach for how to modify lifts around pain in this live 15 hour CEU approved event. When someone has pain with a lift, there are a lot of modifications you can make such as reducing intensity, modifying volume and frequency, or changing the joint angles or range of motion of the lift.
We’ve taken all of these different modifications you can make and organized them into a methodical approach to show you what to prioritize and the exact steps you should take based on the individual’s needs.

Corrective Exercise: Assessing Movement and Treatment Strategies to Enhance Exercise: October 11th
with Great Lakes Seminars
- October 11, 2025
- at R2P - Gambrills
This 1-day course will provide you with the cognitive framework to identify common movement dysfunctions and the compensations that accompany them, as well as strategies for assessing movement and a variety of exercise interventions to personalize your treatments to your patients’ specific needs. Over the course day, we’ll explore the different pathological barriers to movement dysfunction to help you differentiate whether its main cause is arthrokinematic, muscular, fascial, compensatory, or a combination of them all. You’ll also learn communication skills to enhance the process of uncovering the root cause of patients’ unique issues while building rapport for a strong therapeutic alliance between you and your patients. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to apply all the concepts learned to target your patients’ dysfunction and progress them back to health with precision.
As with all our courses, this course is mostly hands-on lab. Please note participants will not be required to perform all the exercises demonstrated in the course.
