The Shneck: Understanding the Cervico–Shoulder Complex
We’re excited to host The Shneck: Understanding the Cervico–Shoulder Complex, taught by Dr. Jess Elis, PT, DPT, PhD, FAAOMPT, OCS, SCS, CSCS.This 18-CEU, course gives clinicians a clear, applied framework for evaluating and treating the neck–shoulder interplay. If you work with overhead athletes, active adults, or any patient living in the “is it the neck or the shoulder?” gray zone, this weekend will sharpen the way you assess, load, and reason through complex presentations.
Across two days, Jess covers:● Biomechanics + the pathomechanics that drive symptoms● Manual therapy that changes orientation and load● PNF + neuromuscular sequencing● Strength and force testing for readiness● Applied loading progressions from rehab to performance● Return-to-play decision-making grounded in mechanics
Whether you're a new grad or a seasoned clinician, you’ll walk away with a repeatable system you can use on the next day.TBD
