FEBRUARY WEBINAR
Course Name: 3 ways scars cause pain & restriction (and what to do about it) with Christine Knox
Date: Wednesday 18th February starting at 7:30pm AEDT
Relevance: All Members.
Description: How Do I Know if a Scar is Causing My Client’s Symptoms?” If you’ve ever wondered this – especially when the scar isn’t the presenting complaint – this training is for you. The truth is, many clients and even therapists don't realise how scars can affect other tissue, sometimes even creating challenges that are distant to the scar site. And many therapists haven't been taught how to treat scars in a way that is simple and gentle!
Join Christine on this webinar to see how scars silently disrupt fascia, lymphatics, and the nervous system – and what to do about it.

Private health insurance audits
This module has been created to take the fear out of private health insurance audits.
The module has been developed by the Australian Regional Health Group (ARHG)*, with specialist input and review from private health funds.
Online and in your own time, you will learn about:
- the two types of private health insurance audits you might be subject to and why
- what the audit process involves, and
- the possible outcomes of an audit.
Most importantly, you will learn the practices you can put in place to ensure you comply with private health insurance regulations.
This course will leave you confident, compliant, and free to focus on what you do best – help your patients feel better.
The module is delivered through ARHG’s online training platform, QualiPHI. For more information and to register, visit the QualiPHI website.
*ARHG is the facilitator of the ARHG recognised provider listing; a list of alternative therapy providers that meet a set of accreditation standards. The database is used by 32 private health funds to determine if claims for alternative therapy services can be paid.
