    Great class. Highly recommended

  2. Anonymous

    fantastic course

  3. Anonymous

    Good course but a little stilted at times. Good info.

  4. Lora Weiss

    The course was informative and I used some of the treatment recommendations immediately in the clinic; for example, timing and documenting improved tolerance for the scrubbing activity and use of constant contact massage on both UE and LE with good benefit.

  5. Chad Royer

    I have taken several courses from liveconferences.com over the past couple of years and this is one of their better courses. There is no detail missed. They cover everything you need to know about RSD. They have MD’s giving input, they have case studies and go over how to treat them, they cover helpful modalities and treatment techniques. It’s all there. I wish all the doctors I come into contact with knew half this much about RSD. With the information contained in this course and the information you can get from the websites referenced at the end, you will very likely be the most knowledgeable person in your clinic about RSD. Your patients will benefit greatly!
