Something that comes up often is the idea that someone coming to us with shoulder pain should get a shoulder exercise. Or someone with carpel tunnel symptoms, for example, should be given the Median nerve release.
This is absolutely WRONG!!!
As Biomechanics Coaches, imovefreely instructor or Biomechanics Trainers we must never do this. When our clients or participants present with a pain or problem we DO NOT prescribe exercises for that area as highlighted in your training. This is an immediate referral to someone medically qualified who can rule out red flag issues or diagnose anything medical.
Then our job is to work on the rest of the body to take pressure off that joint while it is being treated.
If any of you have any specific clients or participants that have symptoms, medical conditions or pains please share them on here - confidentially of course - and let us help to guide you.
Thats quite right, it will have been mentioned on everyone's course, but it sometimes gets forgotten, please dont forget; unless you have a medcial qualification of course.
