An inspiring keynote on what makes a master clinician will set the tone for the day, followed by expert-led sessions and customizable breakout tracks that allow attendees to tailor learning to their practice. A case-based debate on manual therapy versus exercise will bring current clinical questions into a lively, thought-provoking format.<\/p>\n<p>Sessions will explore active and passive treatment classification, functional testing, loading principles and digital treatment options, along with manual therapy concepts that integrate person-centered care, pain mechanisms, and phenotyping. Attendees will participate in hands-on breakouts covering shoulder-neck syndromes and unique treatment considerations in manual therapy.<\/p>\n<p>Interact and network with our guest speakers:<\/p>\n<div class=\"gca-column one-fourth first\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19387 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Courtney-Carol-v2-132x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"132\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Courtney-Carol-v2-132x150.jpg 132w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Courtney-Carol-v2-439x500.jpg 439w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Courtney-Carol-v2.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 132px) 100vw, 132px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Carol Courtney,<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>PT, PhD, ATC<\/strong><br \/>\nNorthwestern Feinberg School of Medicine<br \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"gca-column one-fourth\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19626 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Gabor-Zachary_v2-120x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"120\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Gabor-Zachary_v2-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Gabor-Zachary_v2-400x500.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Gabor-Zachary_v2.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Zak Gabor,<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>PT, DPT, CSCS<\/strong><br \/>\nClinical Athlete<br \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"gca-column one-fourth\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19384 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Shepherd-Mark-120x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"120\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Shepherd-Mark-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Shepherd-Mark-400x500.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Shepherd-Mark.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Mark Shepherd,<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>DPT, DSc, OCS, FAAOMPT<\/strong><br \/>\nBellin College<br \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"gca-column one-fourth\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19385 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Vraa-Derek-120x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"120\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Vraa-Derek-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Vraa-Derek-400x500.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.healthpartners.com\/institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Vraa-Derek.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Derek Vraa,<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>PT, DPT, DSc, OCS, SCS, CSCS, FAAOMPT<\/strong><br \/>\nUnited States Air Force<br \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"box border-blue bg-light-gray \" \/>\n<p>&#8220;Kicking off this conference with a conversation on what truly defines a master clinician is an incredibly important framework for the day. It\u2019s not just skill, it\u2019s how we integrate reasoning, pain science, and movement with our patients. My goal is to connect pain mechanisms to real clinical decisions, so that as you move between sessions, you can see how manual therapy and exercise come together, not as separate approaches, but as a unified strategy.&#8221;\u00a0 &#8211;\u00a0Carol Courtney, PT, PhD, ATC<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Lunch is included and everyone receives a special giveaway.<\/p>\n<p>We are very excited and hope you can join us for this fun and engaging experience!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Testimonials<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThis conference has always been full of great information and evidence based\/real scenarios that have allowed me to put me in the place of the patient\/athlete. This conference educates on acute and chronic injury management and is very beneficial to my practice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really enjoy the panel discussions. Our understanding of these concepts is steadily evolving and it is great to have them presented to a large group. This helps our profession grow and stay on par with the latest and greatest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWorking as an outreach Athletic Trainer in the high school setting, I have to get creative when it comes to rehab. I don&#8217;t have a lot of resources and patient compliance can be low at times. It&#8217;s always great to get new ideas backed by evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel that TRIA puts on a great conference every year. They bring in great speakers and there is always a great variety of topics discussed. I enjoy the sport emphasis.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agenda \u00a0\u00a0CE \u00a0\u00a0Registration \u00a0\u00a0Location \u00a0\u00a0Exhibitors TRIA Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Conference TRIA Research and Education Center is pleased to present our annual Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Conference on Saturday, October 24, 2026.
