PREVENTION

RESTORATION & BEAM WORK
Defining and understanding balance and sensory work by introducing beam work (PlantarBeam™) and the process of layering techniques and progressions with your client while keeping things fun and interactive. This will be the bulk of the session running you through strategies to advance balance work and reaction time with your clients. Working on different foot positions, specific movement drills and locomotion challenges. The application of PlantarBeam™ will showcase how to make a session fun but challenging, specific and engaging. The puzzles of movement are endless and this is an opportunity to learn the progressions through a system of testing.
