Italian Physiotherapist Andrea Fusco presented an alternative means of managing upper limb injuries using techniques and understanding learned form aikido and dance.
This session had an interactive element at the end where three volunteers had themselves examined for fluidity and control of movement.
The understanding from Andrea's background in martial arts comes through strongly, and makes for an excellent and fresh examination of management of shoulder injuries.
