WRK-04 - (Movement Workshop) Thriving Clinicians, Thriving Patients: Transforming Movement Anxiety into Healing Motion for Resilience, Self-Leadership, and Sustainable Care
Physical Therapist Clinical Specialist Kaiser Permanente UCSF Graduate Program in PT, Evidence in Motion San Jose, California
Start your morning with Mindful Movement!
This intensive workshop focuses on experiential learning and practical skill development, equipping healthcare professionals with movement-based and self-regulation tools to enhance self-awareness, resilience, and sustainable practice. The ultimate goal is to improve patient outcomes in pain management. With clinician burnout and nervous system dysregulation on the rise—leading to reduced clinical effectiveness, impaired decision-making, weakened therapeutic alliances, and poorer patient outcomes—these tools are increasingly vital. As pain care shifts toward biopsychosocial and patient-centered models, clinicians must cultivate emotional regulation, pacing, and presence to deliver effective and compassionate care.
Learning Objectives:
Practice movement-based and self-regulation techniques to enhance their own emotional regulation, resilience, and self-awareness, fostering sustainable clinical practice.
Explore how mindful movement and self-regulation tools can be integrated into biopsychosocial and patient-centered care models to improve therapeutic alliances and patient outcomes in pain management.
Identify the impact of nervous system dysregulation and burnout on clinical effectiveness and decision-making, and apply strategies to mitigate these challenges through mindful practices.
Develop skills to maintain presence, emotional balance, and effective pacing during patient interactions, enabling compassionate and effective care delivery.
