PPL course programmes are written in a multidisciplinary format,by Podiatrists
and Physiotherapists using current research, promoting
evidenced based best practice from a multidisciplinary
perspective.
Our primary goal is
to make Biomechanical Assessment and Prescription
Writing; practical and easy to understand, giving
practitioners the ability to confidently prescribe
a wide range of devices for your patients, ensuring
good outcomes for your patients at all times.
COURSE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
Appropriately trained medical practitioners, with an up to date understanding of anatomy & physiology.
PPL Courses are very popular and often oversubscribed. It is recommended that you leave your contact details with us so that when new dates are released we can give you advanced notice.

INCLUDED IN THE COURSES
All delegates on the Basic/Intermediate PPL Biomechanical Assessment & Prescription Writing course will receive a course certificate
detailing CPD points, extensive detailed course book and their own prescription platform assessment & quantification kit.
Following your attendance on a PPL course we continue to build our relationship with our practitioners by offering continuous
support with telephone technical advice and inservice training
where possible.
This intensive workshop based course explains the new theories of
biomechanics, dispelling many of the old myths. Being
Non Root based we have been able to dispense with angles,
tractographs, bisection lines, numbers and all the old
methods that were often found confusing. We advocate
a functional, practical approach to biomechanical assessment
& prescription.

Common conditions and prescription solutions
Using the Prescription Platform
Clinical reasoning & prescribing
The objective following this course is that the practitioner will have the knowledge, skills and confidence to biomechanically assess their patient, quantify the prescription, clinically reason the most appropriate type of device to prescribe, cast if appropriate and develop a treatment plan looking at all modalities available.
Designed for practitioners who have a minimum of 1 year experience of prescribing
a range of devices including casted orthoses.
It is advised that delegates have attended the 2 day
Practical Biomechanicals Assessment & Prescription course.
A fast paced course to introduce experienced practitioners
to new biomechanical theories and a review of current
research and new methods of quantification.
This course includes case studies and interactive
discussions.
