About this Course
By the end of this course, you will (1) identify and address dysfunctions of the cervical-thoracic junction and (2) integrate manual and movement techniques to restore alignment and function. Taught by Sue Falsone, PT, ATC, this course dives into the anatomy, movement patterns, and common pathologies of this key transition zone. Through detailed demonstrations, learners gain practical insight into joint mobility, soft tissue release, and postural correction. The course bridges clinical reasoning and sports performance, teaching how to safely improve range of motion and reduce compensations affecting the upper spine and shoulder. This program’s strength is its precision—equipping professionals to deliver targeted interventions that address root causes of pain and restriction
