Course Bundle Overview: THE Biopsychosocial Bundle

The last 15 years of research have called for significant change in our clinical practice.

MSK outcomes have been historically poor over the 30 years with MSK disability rates at an all-time high!

 

Problems:

1. MSK clinics are set up for hands-on and exercise-based approaches
2. Taking a narrative history is problematic in cubicles and curtained-off gym spaces
3. Physiotherapists feel out of their comfort zone when providing psychosocial care strategies

 

Solutions:

1. Upskilling all manual therapists in nociplastic pain mechanisms
2. Embracing skills that can be integrated into your current care models
3. Committing to wholesale change by spending a year submersed in biopsychosocial learning

 

Are you Intrigued?

Join Embodia and Reframe Rehab for a ONE-year journey (1 hour/week commitment at your own pace) that immerses you in the key areas of adopting a biopsychosocial approach.  

You are NOT alone.  The online courses are all available to take on your own time and pace. And, you will also be supported with monthly OFFICE hours - a chance to ask the instructors questions and bring difficult case studies!

 

How Does the Bundle Work?

There are SIX key courses in this bundle that are purchased together. These courses have been carefully selected and constructed for clinicians who wish to excel in a biopsychosocial framework.
