Clinical Palpation Certification - Accredited Program for Advanced Examination Skills

The Clinical Palpation Certification program provides an accredited, advanced learning opportunity for physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, and other qualified manual therapists to deepen their knowledge and techniques associated with palpation. With a broad scope of learning, the program prepares you to successfully identify anatomical landmarks, differentiate between soft tissue profiles, assess joint structures for potential dysfunction, and recognize scalable and quantifiable musculoskeletal dysfunctions. Training is provided through theoretical modules and thoughtful video demonstrations, and places a strong emphasis on developing fine touch sensitivity and clinical risk-taking in physical assessment. Learners also positively engage with clinical reasoning skills, the documentation of palpatory findings, and building the art of managing assessments into a personalized plan of care with their patient. After completing the program, you will perform precisely effective palpation capabilities that will enhance clinical diagnostics and treatment decisions. All participants receive practice certification for use globally to support your advanced competence to provide physiotherapy services that may promote care in primary physical therapy roles and specialized practice and beyond.
