This course will explore soft tissue techniques, exercise testing and prescription in the context of the physical therapist's practice. Exercise components of frequency, intensity, time, type, volume, and progression will be examined in depth in order to address deficits in range of motion, flexibility, muscle performance and cardiorespiratory endurance. The learner will be introduced to the aquatic medium for performing exercise along with the principles of neuromotor control and learning. Behavioral strategies to overcome barriers to physical activity and exercise will also be emphasized.
