Fitness 101 for Dental Professionals: Secrets for Comfort & Career Longevity Part 2

Friday, June 16, 2023
3:30 PM – 5:00 PM PST
Location: Room 4C3-C4
CE Credits: 1.5
Primary Audience(s): Dental Team

Have you tried exercise regimens, personal trainers, physical therapists, chiropractors and massage therapists, but your pain persists? This course is for YOU!

In part 2 of this interactive seminar, Dr. Valachi introduces a special system of evidence-based exercise and chairside stretching to help dental professionals take control of their own health and extend their careers. Attendees will actively participate in this dynamic seminar and discover muscle imbalances to which they are uniquely prone in the profession and how to select corrective therapeutic exercise. Generic exercise routines that aren’t a problem for the general public (Pilates, yoga, P90X and Crossfit) can throw dental team members into the vicious pain cycle and must be modified. Team members will leave with specific exercises they can implement at home to prevent pain.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn why dental professionals require specific exercise guidelines and how to incorporate a balanced exercise program developed specifically for dental professionals.
  • Identify generic exercises that can actually create and worsen pain syndromes.
  • Incorporate chairside stretching into the workday.
  • Discover how to combat the detrimental physical effects of stress
