The injury screen involves a series of tests designed to assess an athlete’s movement mechanics and range of motion. Our goal is to help the athlete identify areas of opportunity for improved mobility\, flexibility\, strength\, and control. \n\n\n\nAfter the injury screen:The Spooner team will review the results of the injury screen at an individual level. The key findings from the screen will be utilized to provide exercises designed to improve performance and minimize the chance of injury. \n\n\n\nParents and CoachesWe want to help you encourage your athlete to be proactive with their health practices on and off the field/court. The screen can be a first step in this endeavor as it allows us to provide you and the athlete more information that may help them understand their limitations\, decrease their chance of injury\, and even potentially elevate their performance. When we understand our bodies\, we are more equipped to take care of them.  \n\n\n\nIf you find that your athlete already suffers from recurring injury\, we recommend that you engage with a member of the Spooner team. A more thorough complimentary screening might be warranted\, and we would be more than happy to help you get your athlete scheduled.  \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n RSVP for Spooner Rockwall Screens\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Δ\n \n \n\n \n FacebookThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n PhoneHow did you hear about this event?Social MediaA Spooner Team MemberAn Athletic Republic Team MemberThe Rockwall ChamberFlyer at AmeriSportsOther URL:https://www.spoonerpt.com/events/free-community-injury-screens/ LOCATION:Spooner Rockwall\, 3101 Fit Sport Life Blvd. Suite 102\, Rockwall\, TX\, 75032\, United States CATEGORIES:Community Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://www.spoonerpt.com/wp-content/uploads/InjuryScreensEventGraphic.webp ORGANIZER;CN="Becca Sutton%2C PT%2C DPT%2C MSc%2C ATC":MAILTO:Rockwall.FrontOffice@spoonerpt.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Phoenix:20250814T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Phoenix:20250814T200000 DTSTAMP:20260404T070438 CREATED:20250718T153921Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250721T181046Z UID:10000132-1755194400-1755201600@www.spoonerpt.com SUMMARY:Thriving Moms: Practical Support for Pregnancy and Postpartum Health DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening focused on real\, evidence-based guidance for new and expecting moms.

Unlike other programs that separate the body into upper and lower regions\, requiring multiple courses\, our approach enables you to treat the entire body after one course. \n\n\n\nOur system is built on the principles of Neurological Dry Needling\, emphasizing soft tissue needling techniques that aim to normalize neurogenic inflammation\, improve microcirculation\, and reduce soft tissue guarding. We utilize a peripheral nerve mapping model\, which provides a logical and systemic approach\, allowing practitioners to needle not just the muscles\, but the entire neurological system. \n\n\n\nParticipants will practice a variety of needling techniques\, including superficial needling\, rotation\, and pistoning\, with a focus on the proper indications for each. Our approach targets all sensory-innervated structures\, such as tendons and ligaments\, while integrating electrical nerve stimulation. This comprehensive approach ensures a broad range of safe and effective treatment options for clinical application. \n\n\n\nPURPOSE \n\n\n\nThe purpose of the Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Sports Rehabilitation Course is to obtain knowledge and clinical skills necessary to diagnose and treat soft tissue pain and dysfunction.  This 3-day applied-learning course combines interactive lectures and practical hands-on labs. Students participate in several practical sessions\, which are intended to provide feedback to students regarding their comprehension of the key concepts and needling techniques. These practical lab sessions enable students to critically self-evaluate if additional instruction or self-study is needed for clinical competency. \n\n\n\nCONTENT \n\n\n\nThe Neurologic Dry Needling for Pain Management and Sport Rehabilitation course covers: \n\n\n\n\nMultiple dry needling insertion techniques are practiced that range from basic to advanced\, with a majority of them being virtually pain-free.\n\n\n\nDetailed\, tried and tested needling safety techniques and contraindications for dry needling therapy to avoid human error in clinical practice.\n\n\n\nModifiable dry needling system that easily adapts to clinical practice and to the specific needs of each patient.\n\n\n\nSystemic Homeostatic trigger point concept that addresses the physiological\, neurologic\, and mechanical aspects of pain and dysfunction.\n\n\n\nParavertebral neuro-trigger points addressing the postural and viscero-somatic connections\n\n\n\nSymptomatic neuro-trigger points that highlight the neuro-myofa\n\n\n\n\nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \n\n\n\n\nCorrectly identify and apply proper precautions related to bloodborne pathogens in the clinical practice of dry needling therapy from the course pre-reading.\n\n\n\nIndependently identify and apply dry needling to each of the three types of trigger points (homeostatic\, paravertebral\, and symptomatic) in a given case study.\n\n\n\nIntegrate the physiological mechanisms of needling when developing a treatment plan for a given musculoskeletal condition.\n\n\n\nDiscuss the prevention and management of adverse responses to dry needling based on OSHA requirements with 100% accuracy during the case study.\n\n\n\nIndependently apply dry needling treatment safely into musculoskeletal neuro-trigger points during lab sessions.\n\n\n\nIndependently evaluate and treat soft tissue and neurogenic dysfunctions relating to a given neuromusculoskeletal condition.\n\n\n\nCorrectly defend the IDN system for treatment of musculoskeletal pain based on the unique neurology and physiology of neuro-trigger points.\n\n\n\nIndependently integrate the IDN system into the participant’s physical therapy practice in relation to current clinical guidelines.\n\n\n\n\nUSE THE CODE: IDNADVANCED200 to get $200 OFF!
