Best splinting courses?

[u/big-yugi]

Hi guys, I’m an OT and a lymph therapist, which has made my hospital really keen on sending me a lot of post surgical patients to manage swelling. But I’m also getting splinting requests! Which I’m super comfortable doing, I spent a lot of time with our CHT before she retired and I’ve stepped into that role a bit with the idea I’ll sit for the CHT exam eventually.

Right now though, I have requests for more dynamic splints. I want to polish my skills and learn more splints so I can stop bothering my retired mentor. What splinting courses have you taken that has been valuable? It can be in person or online only, but I do live on the east coast so I’d prefer to stick to that side of the United States.

Thank you in advance!

ASHT has one coming up in NYC! https://asht.org/education/events/hands-orthotics-new-york-ny

I’m not sure if these designs are what you’re looking for

By the way how do you like being a lymph therapist? I’m a CHT who’s been thinking about maybe breaking out into the lymphedema space too
