Welcome to Week One of ABMP’s October Education Month

10/03/2018

This October, we’re celebrating back-to-school season by adding a new webinar to the ABMP Education Center every week throughout the month.

This week’s new webinar is “Shin Splints: From Symptoms to Self-Care” with Eric Stephenson. This engaging course on shin splints gives you the information and techniques you need to understand and treat this common, but often complex, condition. Learn the common causes of shin pain, the four different types of shin splints, effective Intelligent Deep-Tissue Massage techniques (in prone, supine, and sidelying positions) to address the soft tissue, and self-care techniques for the lower leg.

Check your email inbox every Tuesday in October to learn about that week’s new course or visit the ABMP Education Center anytime at www.abmp.com/ce.

ABMP members have the option to earn free CE hours for each of the 190+ courses in the library. Not an ABMP member yet? Join at ABMP.com so that you can learn and earn free CE with ABMP!
