KT4 Specialty Neurological

The KT4 Neurological course builds on and expands techniques learned in the KT1, KT2, and KT3 courses. This course addresses variations in nervous system status. The attendees will develop treatment strategies and practice extensive Kinesio Taping techniques to address a wide variety of issues encountered when treating patients with neurological diseases. Some examples include: CVA, CP, ALS, MD, MS, and TBI. The course considers other physiological systems which impact patient considerations when working with the trunk and extremities. Developing, recovering, and deteriorating nervous system patients are investigated, strategies planned, and Kinesio Taping techniques practiced.

• Classify three Nervous System Status types and Expectations for therapeutic intervention. 
• Develop treatment strategies, based on CNS status, utilizing Kinesio Taping applications to obtain desired results.
• Practice specific, advanced, Kinesio Taping applications, including the EDF technique to the trunk and extremities after CNS status is determined.
• Understand sequential progression of Kinesio Taping techniques when treating adult neurological patients.
• Differentiate the rationale for Kinesio Taping applications used with adult neurological patients versus other patient types.
• Develop successful, rationale-based strategies to treat the deteriorating nervous system patient.
