The instructors
Overview
Integrative & Lifestyle Medicine (ILM) are popular buzzwords in physical therapy practice today.
But what does it actually look like in real day-to-day practice? How do you juggle implementation of a new, more effective model of practice - use of a biopsychosocial driven model of assessment and care - when you are already strapped for time and the patient may have limited resources?
Dr. Ginger Garner has been using Integrative (through Medical Therapeutic Yoga) and Lifestyle Medicine, which also includes Functional Medicine via functional endocrinology, in her pelvic health and orthopedic physical therapy practice for over 2 decades, and she has been training physical therapists (physiotherapists), occupational therapists, and other healthcare providers to do the same via Living Well Institute (formerly Professional Yoga Therapy Institute ®) since 2001.
In this webinar, she will show you how she implements this model in her practice at Garner Pelvic Health.
