🚨 Calling PTs, OTs & ATCs! 🚨

We’re opening up a limited number of spots to outside professionals for an exciting upcoming course at Advance — and you won’t want to miss this one.

On March 21–22, we’re hosting a two-day Biomechanics Seminar at our 4800 Maine Street location, featuring Conor Harris — a nationally recognized movement professional with a large following in the rehab world.

We have about 10 spots available and are looking to fill them!

What You’ll Gain:

This immersive, hands-on seminar is designed for movement professionals who want to elevate how they assess, correct, and program for dysfunction and pain — especially at the shoulder.

Instead of generic lectures, you’ll experience:
✅ Practical assessment techniques
✅ Hands-on movement analysis
✅ Real-world corrective strategies
✅ Clear frameworks for identifying dysfunction
✅ Advanced exercise progressions based on objective findings
✅ Live Q&A and small-group interaction

Day One:
Learn the foundational biomechanics concepts and movement assessment strategies that help you identify imbalances many clinicians miss. You’ll build a systematic evaluation process that looks beyond just the shoulder — giving you clarity and confidence in both assessment and client communication.

Day Two:
Apply advanced programming strategies and exercise progressions that create measurable, lasting results. Learn how to choose the right interventions based on objective findings — leading to faster recovery, improved mobility, and stronger client retention.

Whether you’re a PT, OT, or rehab professional, this weekend will give you practical tools you can immediately implement in your practice.

📍 Advance – 4800 Maine Street
📅 March 21–22 | 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Physical therapists, Jill Babey and Justin Gerhardt, from our 927 Broadway location in Quincy recently attended the continuing education course, Management of Cervical and Thoracic Disorders.

This course focused on a wide range of neck pain conditions including:
✔️ Reduced mobility
✔️ Whiplash disorders
✔️ Headaches
✔️ Radiating pain

They learned updated cervical and thoracic manipulations, mobilizations, and treatment techniques to better address these common impairments.

💡 Did you know that neck pain can often improve by getting your thoracic spine (mid-back) moving better? The body works as a team — and sometimes the key to relieving neck pain isn’t just treating the neck!

We’re proud to continually invest in advanced training so we can bring the best, evidence-based care back to our patients. If neck pain is slowing you down, we’re here to help!
