With over 10% of adults experiencing plantar fasciitis it is inevitable that a fitness professional will encounter a client struggling with this painful and limiting condition.


More Effective Calf Stretching Considerations for the Over-Pronated Foot with Dr Emily Splichal

Normal gait requires at least 10 degrees of ankle dorsiflexion, with maximum dorsiflexion occurring closed chain during late midstance.

Spring Loaded Assessing the Knee through Tibial Rotation with Kevin Moore

There is increasing awareness in the fitness and movement therapy communities that each and every joint must be assessed in three dimensions. Despite this, the knee is still frequently pigeonholed as a linear, frontal-plane joint when, in fact, it has more in common with a coil than a hinge.

Join Barefoot Training Specialist® Master Instructor, Kevin Moore for his latest presentation for the EBFA webinar series where he will discuss the transverse-plane aspect of the knee by focusing on tibial rotation: the mechanism by which potential energy from the foot is converted into kinetic energy and, ultimately, propulsion.




Movement-Based Kinesiology Taping with Rick Daigle

Kinesiology Taping has long been a technique used by clinicians and athletes worldwide.  It wasn’t until the 2008 Olympics and especially the 2012 Olympics that the public began to learn more about this innovating technique.   

The philosophy is to target the human body’s largest organ; the skin; and use it as a modality for healing.   By creating a lift, decompressing the subcutaneous layer, offering increased proprioception we can make significant changes to function.   

Join Rick Daigle of Medical Minds in Motion as discusses the philosophy behind the tape and how we use a movement based assessment formula for driving the use of Kinesiology Tape.
