    I’m absolutely loving the course from the guys at Foundations of Clinical Exercise. As a new graduate physiotherapist working in private practice with the ambition of working in sports, it has been an enormous help not only to myself, but also my clients!

    It’s unlike all other online courses as the practical elements and learning activities really ensure that you consolidate the course information and also develop your critical thinking and clinical reasoning skills, which can then be implemented with your clients in the clinic straight away. These practical videos are absolute gold! I’m currently churning through the Hip & Groin Complex module and am learning a ridiculous amount after finishing the equally brilliant exercise prescription module. The course really does fill the gaps from uni – of which there are plenty. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough!

    Amazing modules created by ClinicalxFoundations! What I loved most was the holistic views they took towards ensuring patient care and the emphasis on educating the patient on what is happening to their body and getting the patient to understand why they are doing what is being asked. In particular, the discussions over the importance of language was super insightful. Coming from a non-exercise science background, it was always hard to apply exercise prescription theories to clinical practice, but the Principles of therapeutic exercise prescription module provided simple clinical tips that was tied in with evidence-based research making it extremely resourceful and easy to follow.

    I also completed the Hip and Groin complex, and the best thing about this module is there are assessment and exercise demonstrations with ideas on how to progress and regress exercises. The module pinpoints many important key ideas that has reinforced my learning and reflects what could be implemented practically.
    Could not speak highly enough and recommend these modules- especially to current students!
