This practical, empathy-driven session delivers a client engaged and realistic framework for working with clients living with chronic conditions. Build on or integrate assessments, adaptions, and confidently coach movement in real-life scenarios—not ideal lab settings. You'll walk away with adaptable assessment tools, permission-based cueing, and a fresh, inclusive coaching lens that transforms retention and results.
Key Takeaways:
- Apply adaptable assessment strategies to effectively evaluate clients living with chronic conditions in real-world understanding
- Implement permission-based cueing and inclusive language to create a safer, more empowering coaching experience for clients with complex needs.
- Design and deliver personalized movement adaptations that build confidence, improve retention, and support functional outcomes beyond textbook scenarios.
