Introduction to pilates for neurological clients
Varied discussion topics during this practical course will assist you in applying Pilates to rehabilitating clients with Neurological conditions. One of these is learning how Pilates can bridge the gap between hands on facilitation and resistance training. Other areas explored are how Pilates can be used to rehabilitate not only weakness but high and low tone, sensory changes, vestibular dysfunction, incontinence, motor control and management of fatigue. An overarching topic is how Pilates can be used functionally and tailored to assist individual neurological clients to achieve their goals.
As a result of attending this course participants will come away with many exercise-based ideas of how to promote positive neuroplasticity.

The Introduction to Pilates for Neurological Clients course will introduce the principles of both mat and reformer-based Pilates and how these can be adapted to meet the needs of a neurological client. It aims to introduce some Pilates exercises and equipment which is done in a practical format where course participants will perform and demonstrate the exercises themselves. Neurological case studies will also be presented as a patient demonstration.

Running Symposium
Tell me more
HYBRID - FACE TO FACE EVENT OPTION
This half day running symposium brings together leading experts from physiotherapy, sport and exercise medicine, strength and conditioning, podiatry, and sports dietetics, to provide attendees with the latest clinical insights to support runners across all levels of participation.
The program explores the continuum of running performance and injury management, beginning with an understanding of normal running biomechanics and practical training drills to enhance efficiency and performance. Participants will then examine the diagnosis and management of common running-related pathologies, before engaging in an interactive Q&A session with expert clinicians. Following a networking morning tea, the symposium continues with evidence-based approaches to strength and conditioning for runners, the role of podiatry interventions—including footwear, orthotics and rehabilitation strategies—in both injured and uninjured athletes, and concludes with contemporary sports dietetics principles to optimise health, training adaptation and performance.
This symposium offers a unique opportunity to learn from clinicians working at the highest levels of sport while gaining practical strategies that can be immediately translated into everyday clinical practice.
Whether you work with recreational runners, endurance athletes or elite competitors, this event will equip you with current, clinically relevant knowledge to enhance your confidence in assessing, managing and supporting the running athlete. Network with colleagues, engage with expert presenters, and leave with practical take-home strategies to improve outcomes for your patients.

Informed Birth Choices
Tell me more
This webinar will be presented by Assoc. Prof. Emmanuel Karantanis to discuss birth choices from an obstetric and urogynaecology perspective. As physiotherapists, we are often asked by patients what we recommend regarding the mode of delivery for obstetric patients.
Gaining a multidisciplinary perspective and better understanding may help us inform our patients more effectively so they can make truly informed choices. This is particularly relevant given the recent birth trauma parliamentary inquiry which summarised: 'Every birth (must be) met with dignity, respect and compassion'. Topics covered will include mode of delivery choice in primiparous women, after OASI (obstetric anal sphincter injury) and in multiparous women
