This two-day course is designed for practicing chartered physiotherapists who have previously undertaken a recognised acupuncture foundation course and wish to refresh their practical skills in the clinical treatment of both acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain. Participants should be MCSP and HCPC registered or equivalent and have already successfully undertaken a recognised acupuncture foundation course.
Aims:
➢ To refresh the participant’s theoretical knowledge of the analgesic mechanisms of acupuncture.
➢ To refresh the participant’s theoretical knowledge of the health and safety aspects related to the clinical application of acupuncture.
➢ To refresh the participant’s theoretical knowledge of acupuncture and its role in the treatment of musculoskeletal pain.
These objectives will be achieved through a variety of teaching strategies including lectures, tutorials, seminars, action groups, problem-based learning scenarios, clinical reasoning-based case studies and practical needling situations.
During the course you may also be required to undertake a theoretical and practical assessment.
Learning will also be supported by the course study manual and the use of research-based teaching materials and methods.
Students will be provided with the following resources for their use on the course:
Course manual, handouts and a selection of acupuncture needles.
