Virtual Reality (VR) uses simulations to help patients engage in therapeutic exercise in a controlled, interactive environment. VR can enhance rehab by providing real-time feedback. Patients can improve motor skills, challenge balance, & benefit in many other ways using VR. Donations to the School of Health Professions on Give to CSS Day will help fund VR equipment & licensure!

CSS PT faculty, alumni, and students,

On Saturday, December 14, Evidence in Motion (EIM) is hosting an online, one-day pain symposium (Elevate Pain Symposium).

Well-known speakers, with a focus on some of the most challenging clinical conditions seen by clinicians.

Speakers include Jo Nijs, Adriaan Louw, Paul Mintken, Ina Diener, Steve Schmidt, Kory Zimney and more.

Topics include: chronic low back pain, CRPS, whiplash-associated disorders, radiculopathy, headaches, knee OA, lateral epicondylitis and frozen shoulder, with sessions designed to provide immediate clinical strategies to help patients with these complex issues.

Please share this exciting event with your colleagues – physical therapy provides an evidence-based, non-pharmacological approach to persistent pain, fostering independence and providing hope.
