I have gained an understanding of just what causes CTS, how to not only teach myself but also my clients how to prevent CTS and how to avoid having surgery. I will now use the exercises and prevention techniques I learned in the manual when working out my clients. I found this course extremely easy to understand. I feel as though I now have a thorough knowledge of the Carpal Tunnel and CTS. The manual was easy to use and I was able to take it with me and record notes in it.....I found everything about this course enjoyable (not always easy to say when learning) once I picked up the CTS manual it was hard to put down. Thanks GMP!!! Deborah A. Pandolfo, AFPA Certified Professional The ability to check postural issues versus looking right at the hand as the culprit for CTS symptoms. I maintain a stretching and ergonomics program at work as an Occ. Health Nurse/CPT (Wellness Coordinator) and have to assess on a daily basis and this was very helpful on shedding light regarding trigger points. I will apply the content of this course in the field of ergonomics and safety at the worksite. I love your courses…they are simple and planned well. Great course! Julia Bartram, ACSM/NETA Certified Professional I will educate all clients that have jobs that require repetitive motion on different ways how to stretch and perform self care. It was great and I will refer people I know who are serious about fitness that this is a must have course. Thanks. Allan Brown, NASM Certified Professional
