OUR HOSTS AND STUDENTS
REFLECT ON THEIR EXPERIENCE.
"Cindy (Marti) provided the 6 day Level 1 course for our 10 therapists. As a course instructor, she was organized, detailed and supportive of our organization's efforts to host this course for our employees. Her willingness to engage in several pre-course conference calls helped ensure that our site and therapists were ready to host the training. Attendees were positive in their reviews of the course, including that 'Cindy presents the concepts and detailed information very clearly and she thoroughly answers questions. Lectures were engaging.' Cindy is clearly an expert in her field, and all therapists attending felt supported with her teaching style. We look forward to working with Cindy in the future to train additional team members and advance the skills of those who have already taken the initial training."

"Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) is very grateful for the teaching and education provided by the clinicians and educators of the BSPTS Schroth Based Method. These educators have brought this method to Texas Children’s as a conservative approach to treating scoliosis and kyphosis. Because of their education and instruction, the TCH system now has a total of 16 certified therapists that can now serve the community using this non-surgical treatment approach. The chief of orthopedics at TCH offers the BSPTS Schroth Based Method to all appropriate patients that he sees in his clinic because of the positive results he has seen in his patients. Families and patients are grateful that there is a conservative option in the Houston area for treating scoliosis. Overall bringing this knowledge and method of treatment to our facility has been a true blessing for patients in our community." - Sandra Engle, PT, DPT, C1 &C2 Certified, Texas Children's Hospital
"This was one of the best continuing education classes I have ever taken.” - Course Attendee
"We have hosted BSPTS-North America at our practice, Scoliosis Specialty Center. I was provided with all the necessary information with ample time for me to prepare for hosting the classes. We were given all the specific requirements to obtain CEU approvals in the state of NJ. Amy was very flexible in the class structure and was able to strike a balance between course content and least impact on our day to day functioning of our practice and current patients. For one of the classes, Amy drove with one of her portable wall bars so we wouldn’t have to cancel any patients, which was definitely above and beyond what I was expecting. I am hosting BSPTS-North America again for a C2 class and this time, Amy also connected me with the BSPTS-North America web manager to ensure all the registration paperwork was accurate and posted in a timely manner. PTs who have attended the course at our site have always had high remarks and feedback for the course content and delivery of the important information to help them provide the highest quality of care to their patients. As a PT, a practice owner with ten certified therapists, and clinic providing scoliosis specific exercises for almost a decade, we have always utilized the courses provided by the BSPTS-North America team and they continue to provide the highest quality of education. We highly recommend BSPTS-North America to provide the most current and thorough education for scoliosis specific exercise/ Schroth." - Chintan A.

"Ivy Rehab is committed to providing access to high-quality and innovative post-professional education. We strive to partner with industry leading education providers and that is why we chose the Barcelona Scoliosis Physical Therapy School to certify our therapists in the evidence-based Rigo Concept. We worked directly with Amy Sbihli, MPT, DPT who was a rockstar instructor! Planning the course does take commitment and effort but the process was made much easier because of our direct partnership with Amy. Once the course was complete and we saw the incredible feedback from our clinicians, we started planning our next course. We are now going to reach a new population of patients and be able to provide them with exceptional care. Thank you BSPTS!" - Kara Halsey PT, DPT, Director of Clinical Education, Ivy Rehab
“Starting a scoliosis treatment program is a big commitment with the initial training being a large investment for a clinic. After a lot of debate, we chose to host the (BSPTS) L1 training at our facility - and it was such a rich experience! Using this model, we were able to get double the staff trained at the same or less cost with less stress on our staff. Also the unofficial benefits of having Cindy (Marti) on site to see our equipment, space and the casual conversations we had about referral systems was unexpectedly valuable. Cindy made the process easy with clear steps, equipment lists, timelines and support for completeing the course set up and hosting. It was such a great experience that we are making plans for hosting another L1 or L2 course in 2023." - Carrie Van Quathem MS, PT, CBIS-T, Director of Pediatric Rehabilitation, ChildServe
