Clare Frank in Phuket 2023, a photo journal
What is it like taking a Jetset Physical Therapy Con Ed course? Here are our photos from Phuket Thailand!
Since we are going with Clare Frank to the Philippines this summer, We would like to show you some photos. We hope that by viewing these, you can get an idea of how great Physical Therapy Con Ed can be. This particular course was taught by the great Clare Frank, one of the best instructors in the world. Her resume speaks for itself! Her course like all of ours was kept to a small number which allowed for each student to get one on one instruction and ample time to have all questions answered. Take a look and hopefully these photos inspire you to join us at one of our courses.
The great Clare Frank of Movement Links! If you haven’t experienced her lectures, we highly recomend!!!
One of the most beautiful classrooms you will ever see! Above the jungle and the coastline.

Many people think that being in paradise will make it hard to concentrate on the material, we have found the opposite is true. All the students were engaged and active in this class.
Every day we met for lunch on this balcony below the classroom. The food was simply amazing!
Enjoying lunch with Clare Frank. This is a great time to ask questions and get to know people. New friends were made and old friends were able to catch up.
Ask anyone who has taken one of our courses, they will tell you the food was amazing! More food photos below…
Snacks provided in the class! So good!
Breakfast snack for the morning session. See the gold!?!?

Jen and Jesse of R.O.C.K. PT in Kauai. Our courses are a great way for married PTs to have a get away and a “tax write off” vacation!
Small class size means more time to gain knowledge from the best instructors!!!!
Paying attention is easy when you are in a relaxed state, ie on vacation.
After day 1 we hosted an after class happy hour, on the beach.
The scene from our happy hour. Simply amazing!
Our motto is: “Stay After Class” and this day was no different. We love really getting to know everyone and making new memories.
I was lucky enough to bring my family along with me on this Physical Therapy Con Ed course. Several folks often do the same at a Jetset Course. Meeting the friends and family is always such a fun part of the happy hour.
stay after class!
We loved this classroom.

We recorded a podcast after class, Joewel Pascual and Clare Frank were the guests, coming out soon.

Jetset Rehab Education would like to thank Clare Frank and the Anantara Resort Phuket for the amazing job.
If you want to experience this in 2024, here is our course with Clare for this May!
Blood Flow Restriction with Owens Recovery Science in Las Vegas 2019
UPDATE!
have a listen to our newly released podcast with Johnny Owens and follow us on social media to see when our next Blood Flow Restriction course is going to be!
The official Jetset Rehab Education octagon photo.
This course brought in the 5 year anniversary of Jetset Rehab Education! Over these amazing 5 years, the Jetset Rehab Education team has seen the best of the best Physical Therapy instructors. This is why it is an amazing compliment to the Owens Recovery Science team and Johnny Owens that this was probably our best reviewed course. The venue was the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas and we have never had a classroom like this! The pristine lecture hall, fully stocked beverage coolers, and the world class gym was all we could ask for to put on a Physical Therapy course.
In my opinion as a Physical Therapist who has been practicing for 10+ years is that Blood Flow Restriction is going to be a major player in the future of Physical Therapy. (I urge you, not recommend but urge you to take this course…..with us or anyone, but just take it!) We as rehab professionals need to know the benefits of this method of optimizing muscular strength. The lecture also revealed that there are also added benefits to BFR such as improved VO2 max, improved bone density, reduction in myostatin (a protein responsible for blocking myogenesis or inhibiting muscle cell growth), pain reduction, and improved endurance.
Does any of this sound like something that can help our patients?!?!?!
After this course, our students achieved a certification in Blood Flow Restriction. Below is a photo journal of the course with the special brand of Jetset Rehab Education in Las Vegas to spice it up. Take a look below!
The day started in the lobby of the amazing VDARA hotel which was included with Jetset Rehab Education registration. Here we were able to meet what has become our Jetset family, some who have been taking 5 years of our courses! Old friends from PT school, former co-workers, new acquaintances all met here. At 8:15 sharp we were loaded onto a private bus which was to take us to the UFC Performance Institute.
Just like high school
This is the classroom?!?!

LAB
After a few hours of lecture and the provided breakfast and coffee, we headed off the the UFC Performance Institute gym. Here we put theory into practice. We were able to learn the nuances of the Delphi Blood Flow Restriction cuffs and work out in the gym. Our general criteria was to perform 80% lower extremity occlusion or 50% upper extremity occlusion and perform 70 reps (30-15-15-15) of a 10-30% repetition maximum. Note: I have had a few inquiries as to why “cheaper options” are not used for cuffs. These Delphi systems self calibrate, keep a consistent pressure while working out, and inflate fast. There is quite a bit of research comparing the units for those interested. The Delphi unit is FDA approved and is the gold standard for this area of practice. There are also many who question the safety of this practice. With the Delphi cuffs, there is little to no risk of any issues due to circulation.
The cuff is left on during rest periods in between sets.

in between sets….by leaving the cuff on you are preventing venous return and by doing this it has been shown to stimulate muscle growth.
To build endurance, the cuff is left on during 15 minutes of continuous exercise.
We keep our classes small at Jetset Rehab Education. This way the instructor is readily available and there are enough units for everyone to practice with multiple times.

70 pushups, 30-15-15-15 with 50% occlusion. NOT EASY but she did it. Very impressive.

After class…….
Every jetset class has, food provided, small classrooms, and an after class q&a networking event.
After the course was over, we bussed everyone to 595 craft and kitchen, to ask Johnny Owens questions, hang out, and meet some family and friends.
loaded up on the bus
fun in the back of the bus.
595 Craft was a great place for our students to network, and meet up with their significant others and simply relax.
Great to meet up with JTM a former co-worker!
Priti and Johnny Owens chatting over a beer.
Thanks to Tera and Heather of the UFC Performance Institute, your help was priceless.
Reflecting on this course I have realized that this area of practice is going to be a vital piece to the future of Physical Therapy. I urge you to take this course, we had fantastic reviews and it convinced a lot of skeptics to add this to their clinics.
We hope to bring this course back next year in 2020 but there are many courses with Owens Recovery Science out there. check them out HERE: https://www.owensrecoveryscience.com/

Portland Michael Shacklock Photo Journal - Upper Quarter Neurodynamics
Find out what it is like to take a class with Jetset Rehab Education.
by Randal Glaser
First off, we would like to thank all of the amazing Portland rehab specialists who made it to the Michael Shacklock Upper Quarter Neurodynamics continuing education course. We had a good mix of Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, Athletic Trainers and other rehab specialists. We have had great respect for Michael Shacklock's book since our Physical Therapy school days and believe many who took the course share that same admiration. Not only did Michael exceed our expectations as an instructor, but he's a really good guy. We feel very lucky to have gotten to know him over beers and food.
The following are some photos we took that best capture the Jetset Rehab Education spirit and the way we organize a continuing education course. We are looking forward to build on the many friendships we made during our time in Portland.
The following photo diary is from the Upper Quarter class only. The Lower Quarter class photos will be shared next week. If you would like to request a specific image, please email us at JetsetRehabEd@gmail.com and we will reply with a raw copy of the selected photo(s).
Please note: later this month, all photos will be shared with students on a website and available to download to share on your blogs, websites, social properties and etc. At Jetset Rehab, we believe it's important to provide all assets that help our students' businesses thrive and succeed. Taking a continuing education course should allow for not only learning but networking. It is our hope that sharing videos and photos can assist with this.
If you haven't yet, please check out our Current Courses ! For feedback on the photo diary, please email jetsetrehabed@gmail.com or leave comments below.
5:30am Wake up and start to prep for the class. In an hour, we have to pick up Michael Shacklock and take him to Pacific University where it all begins.
We start the morning learning how tension on a contralateral nerve can take the tension off of a painful nerve. See the video below where Michael Shacklock (left) explains this concept.
Attentive students.
We are thankful to those who decided to attend the class. Nothing but positive energy.
Michael Shacklock demonstrates the palpation of the Median Nerve as students look on.
We can't stress this enough, limited class size allows students to get the most out of their experience. We take pride in knowing that everyone gets the opportunity to ask questions as well as one-on-one interactions with both the instructor and fellow classmates.
Michael Li (pictured here) is going to partner with Jetset Rehab Education for another continuing education class with Michael Shacklock on March 17, 2017. Follow us on social media for registration updates.
Michael Shacklock observes and palpates the Ulnar nerve. One can observe differences when comparing sides if one area has inflammation.
Lunch time! We cater many of our classes with high-quality food.
Later in the afternoon, we start the lab portion of the course. In this photo, every detail of the neurodynamic tests were reviewed piece by piece. In Photo - Allen Rubin.
Scot Morrison looks on with skepticism. Check out an old podcast we did with him HERE.

A small class size is very important! It's ok to ask organizers how many students will be in the classroom. If the class size is too large, this moment is not going to happen.

We are very big on networking after class, hence the hashtag #stayafterclass.
We met up at a brewery with the instructor so our students could discuss the class, life, business, sports or anything else over some great food and beer.
Wouldn't you rather leave the classroom and discuss Neurodynamics here?
DAY 2: Phillip Snell and Scot Morrison with Michael Shacklock.

Monica helping spread the word about our upcoming class!
The memo on the office bulletin board peaked my interest. It highlighted a meeting organized by the GLAD district of Los Angeles for the CPTA. . The location was to be located in a brewery in Santa Clarita. See our photo diary below.
As anyone who reads this blog or follows Jetset Rehab Education on social media knows, we feel the networking is ESSENTIAL to clinicians.
By the way, this is why our classes are built around a great instructor AND a strong networking component built in.
Here are some reasons why networking is important for Clinicians:
- Referral system. Example: This particular night I met someone who is a Lymphadema specialist. I had been on the lookout for a specialist in this area for quite some time. Now I have someone I can send patients to if they need this service. These opportunities are everywhere! Perhaps your business or clinic provides a specialty service. After talking face to face you are more likely to get a referral vs. email ads and other forms of advertising. Think of this as word of mouth recommendations for your own business.
Mike and his two assistants.
- New Friends. Like minded people are more likely to develop friendships due to common interests. Friendships are great for having emotional support and understanding. Think of your grad school friends. They were the only ones who understood the intensity of school work and your lifestyle. Just as important are the friends you meet in a profesional setting. More friends = always good.
Long lost friends
- Tips/Advice. "That mistake you are about to make, I've already made it."
Wouldn't it be nice to know Clinicians who have been through your path before? Who understand your struggles because their's are the same? Trust me, if you just look, you will find them.
If you need advice, friendship, or opportunity this is the place to be.

APTA Combined Sections Meeting 2016: a Jetset Rehab Photo Journal.
CSM 2016 in Photos. Send us your own!
I have gone to four combined sections meetings and this years was the most intense and the best one I have been to yet. I had the looming pressure of presenting a research project with Jay Bhatt, Andre Chavez, and Manny Yung on Tennis Elbow but getting the word out on Jetset Rehab Education was our main focus. We feel strongly in our product and are really excited about our classes this year.
A major difference I noticed in the PT landscape is the explosion of social media into the PT world, Student PTs were as well known as seasoned presenters and it was a joy to see.
Follow us on the links below!
During the conference I was snapping photos trying to capture our week in Anaheim for those who could not attend.
The Anaheim Convention Center
Our friends Marshall LeMoine and Mike Wong owners of the Clinical Pattern Recognition App presenting with Stephiana Bell to a packed house. The app is on sale now.
I got to meet up with Joe Donelly current mentor and former Professor from Georgia State (now at Mercer) and Stephen Morrison.
Preparing for our platform presentation.
For you Educators out there, the Clinical Pattern Recognition app has some great clinicians making it, Anne Lemoine is one of them. She is seen here educating some clinicians in the exhibit hall.
The PT conveyor belt. Every CSM seems to have this situation.
The building looked amazing. It allowed so much natural light inside that it didn't feel bad being inside all day.
Hope to see Bey at our next class
One of the highlights was meeting Andre Chavez (left) and Scot Morrison. These are some of the most thoughtful people I have met and just from one conversation I made a lot of changes in my research reading methods.
We recorded a podcast with Scot Morrison (pictured here)

Sitting and waiting for the presentation to begin, a nervous moment for me. The water was great by the way.
Finally! The hours of research and studying have all led to this moment.
Afterwards our team (minus Manny Yung who was presenting in another room) take a moment to snap a photo. Left to Right: Andre Chavez, Randal Glaser, Jiten (Jay) Bhatt. Now I can relax.
The classroom before the ICF guidelines for Lateral Epicondylitis lecture. I have to say, the classrooms were really nice looking.
The alumni banquet Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Kaiser Permanente Ortho Residency. Special Thanks to Jason Tonley for organizing this.
Happy hour was busy. PTs were definitely taking advantage of the day off from the clinic.
Everywhere we looked people were networking and meeting old friends. This, in my opinion, is where our profession gets inspired to get better.
The weather was fantastic!

I love this photo because it has me with three of my most influential mentors: Left to Right: Me, Randal Glaser, Clare Frank, Tracey Wagner and Mr. Jiten (Jay) Bhatt.
Finally back home where my 2 year old son colored all over my research papers :) and thus putting closure on a great week!
