About this Event

A one-day Shockwave + EMTT symposium with the option to extend your training with a hands-on workshop to develop practical skills and protocol design.

This event is designed for MSK clinicians, including physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, athletic therapists, massage therapists, sports medicine professionals, and physicians who want practical, evidence-based approaches to shockwave and EMTT.

Day 1: Evidence to Practice Symposium

Featuring Prof. Dr. Karsten Knobloch and James Woledge

This science-led, clinically focused symposium is designed to translate the latest evidence into clear treatment frameworks you can apply immediately.

Youโ€™ll build a practical understanding of Radial pressurewave, Focus shockwave and EMTT, including key mechanisms, indications and contraindications, parameter selection, sequencing, and outcome-based clinical decision making. Expect concrete, evidence-informed protocols and real-world strategies you can implement in your practice the very next day.


Day 2: Hands-On Practical Workshop (OPTIONAL)

Presented by three Canadian Key Opinion Leaders:

Dr. Jeffrey Hedrich, DC; Emmanuel Lo Monaco, PT; Dr. Nick Tsaggarelis, DC

Rotate through three small-group workstations where youโ€™ll participate in guided, case-based discussion and hands-on skill development. The focus is to facilitate group discussion around assessment for each region, followed by treatment considerations and coached technique practice with our KOLs.

Youโ€™ll learn how to administer Radial Pressure Wave, Focus Shockwave, EMTT, and when a combined approach may influence outcomes, using a practical clinical loop: assess, treat, re-test, and progress.

Station 1: Cervical Spine, Shoulder, Elbow, and Wrist
Station 2: Hip, Knee, and Foot
Station 3: Lumbar Spine and Pelvis
