“The Missing Link? Managing the Neurological Impact of Injury for Faster Recovery” (Lunch will be provided.)
Ramona von Leden, PhD (NeuFit Director of Research and Clinical Education) Ramona has dedicated her career to investigating novel approaches to work with the nervous system to improve recovery from injury and disease. She earned her B.S. in Psychology from Brown University, her Ph.D. in Neuroscience from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Texas at Austin’s Dell Medical School.
Sara Starc, MSOT, OTR/L, CPT Sara is a skilled OT and an experienced NeuFit practitioner, renowned for her proficiency in supporting both amateur and professional athletes across a spectrum of sports disciplines through the innovative NeuFit Method. With a strong foundation in hand and upper extremity dysfunction, concussion management, and sports science, Sara is deeply committed to a holistic and innovative approach to athlete care.
This workshop will demonstrate how the Neubie device can accelerate recovery from injuries and surgery by managing the neurological response to trauma that often goes untreated. The patented direct current technology identifies and corrects protective guarding and inhibition resulting from injuries, helping athletes heal faster and return to competition well ahead of schedule. Beyond rehabilitation, the Neubie activates muscles pre-competition and enhances mobility – while also speeding recovery post-game. Attendees will learn how to incorporate the Neubie to get athletes back on the field quicker while optimizing performance capacity over a season through improved strength, increased range of motion, and mitigating long-term wear and tear.
