Today was like any other day with my mentor. I went in and he was doing ultrasound therapy to an athelete. While he was doing that, he made me do a PNF stretch on a soccer player so she can go ahead and do her exercises. I stretched her out 5 times for 15 seconds on each leg. As i finished that he explained to me what her issue was. It turns out that she has pateller tendonitis. He did deep tissue massage on the damaged tendon and he was informing me how this would help her rehabilitate. Then we went into his office and he made me read a passage on a website on pateller tendonitis and how it is healed. After he told me to explain to him what i read and understood. The reason why he made me do this is because i will be demonstrating how to help heal this particular injury in my physical project. After that he asked me what else i was interested in and i said the back. After he showed me stretches for the back i went home. He told me to go home and study the knee and this particular injury. Also he told me to go and pracitce the techniques on my test dummy (my girlfriend) so it stays fresh in my mind. He also wants me to try these techniques on our last meeting on saturday.
Total hours: 15 hours.
