OVERVIEW

Treating Peripheral Nerve Entrapments is organized by Niel Asher Education.

Course Overview
Across this 1.5-hour CE/CPD course, participants will explore common types of peripheral nerve entrapment affecting the upper extremity, with particular attention to assessment, clinical reasoning, soft tissue involvement, and practical treatment strategies.

The course examines how repetitive sporting actions, such as throwing, may place excessive traction around a joint and contribute to compression, inflammation, adhesions, and nerve-related symptoms.

Students will learn to consider both true entrapments and pseudo-entrapments, helping them reason more clearly when clients present with pain, altered sensation, weakness, or upper limb dysfunction.

Supported by detailed video tutorials, fully illustrated course notes, companion course learning, lesson quizzes, online exam, certificate of completion, subtitles, and lifetime access, this course provides a concise and practical learning experience for professionals working with upper extremity nerve-related presentations.
