A news report from The Tribune-Democrat indicates that the event is part of a series of seminars dedicated to trends in research, innovative therapeutic strategies, and cutting-edge programming in health and wellness. The event aims to offer education and continuing education credits to different disciplines, including physical therapists and physical therapist assistants.
