Overview

This specialization provides a complete foundation in the anatomy, pathology, and rehabilitation of complex shoulder conditions. Through expert-led video instruction from Rebecca Tyler (Ost.), Dr. Jonathan Kuttner (MD), and Maureen Abson (LMT), learners study the shoulder’s intricate mechanics, explore targeted manual therapy, and apply evidence-based rehabilitation strategies. Graduates gain practical tools to assess, treat, and restore shoulder health across a spectrum of conditions - from rotator cuff injuries to frozen shoulder.

By the end of this course, you will (1) identify and address rotator cuff dysfunction through targeted assessment and (2) apply manual and exercise therapies for full functional recovery. Presented by Dr. Jonathan Kuttner, this course explores the four rotator cuff muscles in depth, explaining trigger point formation, muscle imbalances, and compensatory patterns. You’ll learn practical, step-by-step manual techniques supported by anatomy tutorials, case studies, and integrated heat, ice, and stretching protocols. The course stands out for its clear integration of pain science and manual therapy—helping practitioners refine diagnostic accuracy and treatment precision to restore pain-free movement.
