Acute & Chronic Conditions

With Special Knee Treatment Application by Kevin Wilk, PT, DPT, FAPTA

Achieving outcomes begins with the basic building block of performing effective treatments. In order to perform effective treatments, you must understand how to correctly dose based on the condition and desired outcomes.

In this 45-minute webinar, learn from Mark Callanen, PT, DPT, OCS, as he unpacks evidence-based treatment techniques.

During this webinar, you will uncover:

• The role of joules, watts, energy density, and power density in treating with high power lasers
• Dosing concepts for acute vs. chronic conditions
• Kevin Wilk, PT, DPT, FAPTA, demonstrating a knee treatment
• Specific treatment recommendations for the neck, back, and shoulder

Differentiation of Chronic vs. Acute Injury Dosing

Presented by:
Doug Adams, PT, DPT, SCS, OCS, CSCS, and co-founder of Omega Project PT
Brian Pryor, PhD, CEO of LightForce® Therapy Lasers
Mark Callanen, PT, DPT,OCS, Director of Clinical Development, LightForce® Therapy Lasers

Can outcomes be influenced by newer technology? This session will cover how Class IV laser therapy mechanistically helps address pain and treats both acute and chronic injuries. Taking a dive into photobiomodulation from recent studies to clinical outcomes in golfers and runners, this session provides an understanding of deep tissue laser therapy’s impact on short-term pain reduction and long-term tissue repair as well as how chronicity affects treatment technique in the athlete’s plan of care. The session is rounded out by further discussion on how research is helping to shape dosing parameters and protocols for different conditions.
