Selected Reviews From Course Feedback Summary
“In 21 years of practicing as a Physical Therapist, I rank this course in the top 3 I’ve ever taken. Literally. Jared’s teaching style, methods, practicality, humility, expertise/deep knowledge, resourcefulness, are truly noteworthy, and I’m grateful that there are people in our field at Jared’s level.”
‘Amazing course. I will be coming back and reviewing this material for years to come. Every time I leave a live session, I feel compelled to immediately go climbing too, so it ignites an enthusiasm for the sport as well as a feeling of confidence in treating these athletes.”
“I truly and thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this course. Jared, is an excellent instructor and I hope to continue learning from you. I am glad to have met so many great clinicians and hope to build upon those relationships and strengthen the world of climbing physical therapy!”
“Love the videos and the occasional puns inserted in there. It allows us to see how serious and professional medical provider you are but also how behind all that you seem to have that awesome easy going rock climber vibe that we can easily relate too.”
“The Rock Rehab continuing education course is a comprehensive guide to assessing, diagnosing, and treating rock climbers and typical rock climbing injuries. In my opinion, it is an essential course for physical therapists looking to expand their knowledge on how to effectively treat rock climbers.”
“This course takes an in-depth dive of the research and applies it seamlessly into assessment and treatment of the rock climbing athlete. It builds upon the foundations and allows us to assess and treat this group of athletes, specific to their sport, which hasn’t been done before.”
“This course contains a wealth of knowledge for any medical provider looking to work with rock climbers of any level. The course focuses not just on giving the provider information about the types of injuries but also information on how to view and assess the climber in function and return the climber back to sport. The author is very knowledgeable and has a number of great tips and experience that lends itself to unique intervention.”
“The course goes in depth on climbing specific injuries, but presents it in a way that is not intimidating if you don’t have climbing experience. The sport is becoming more popular so we are bound to see more climbers in our clinics, and this course is a great way to learn how to treat the potential injuries we will see as rehab professionals”
“This course strongly reinforces that PT’s are movement experts and it is essential to perform movement analyses for the proper assessment and treatment of every patient. A lot of the content is relevant to non-climbing patients as well, who come in with similar injuries discussed in this course. That being said, there are many injuries that are very climbing-specific that you don’t commonly see in the general population which this course thoroughly addresses”
