DN jhess orthopt. Hess has more than 28 years of clinical physical therapy experience, primarily in the outpatient orthopedics, as well as many years as a hospital administrator and academic faculty member. Her goal is to develop diverse leaders in equitable and inclusive clinical, research, and teaching environments, and by doing so, shape the future of physical therapy practice.
As a researcher, her focus is driven by questions developed in dialogue with the dance community. Within just three months of entering the AAMT Fellowship program, each of our clinics went from standard or general physical therapy providers seeing predominantly post-op patients to specialty clinics with the ability to diagnose and treat much more complex patients, including: cervicogenic headaches, migraine, tension type headaches, post-partum pelvic pain, plantar fasciitis, second and third rib syndrome, cervicothoracic myofascial pain syndrome, and a variety of maxillofacial pain syndromes.
We believe this has been paramount in our ability to effectively market our services directly to the consumer i. In addition to an online journal club whereby we continuously appraise the latest literature on manual therapy, exercise, dry needling and Western acupuncture, we receive intensive training in research design, research methodology, biostatistics, grant writing, emerging technologies in physical therapy research, and the biopsychosocial and pharmaceutical aspects of pain management.
We were blown away by the lectures provided by Dr. Moreover, the hands-on instruction with fMRI, non-invasive brain stimulation, gait-rite technology and diagnostic ultrasound more than surpassed our expectations.
We particularly enjoyed the advanced musculoskeletal imaging course with Dr. Paul Beattie and the applied musculoskeletal anatomy course with real cadavers! Nevertheless, regardless of the didactic coursework and all of the scientific literature that we have critically appraised over the past year in the AAMT Fellowship, evidence-based medicine is not restricted to randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Without clinical expertise, practice risks becoming tyrannized by evidence, for even excellent external evidence may be inapplicable to or inappropriate for an individual patient.
We believe the curriculum, hands-on training, and osteopractic approach to patient care offered through the AAMT Fellowship program is second to none. Dunning has truly created a team of faculty members that are both academic and clinical experts. For example, each AAMT faculty member is adept at manipulating or adjusting the upper cervical spine 16 , 17 and masterful in the use of the 9-point semi-standardized dry needling protocol for the management of knee osteoarthritis —thus, you can learn by seeing as well as by doing.
Dunning has also been able to handpick the most qualified and well-suited fellows-in-training. We have particularly enjoyed the camaraderie with exceptionally talented physical therapists throughout the United States. It has been a privilege to be a part of such a fine group of individuals that have the ability to move the profession forward. We are thankful for the friendship and professional connections that we have made through the AAMT Fellowship program.

I am looking forward to taking the advanced Osteopractic Spinal Manipulation course. James Dunning is a master clinician and educator.
He is able to condense a considerable amount of material and make it clinically applicable. The idea of using thrust manipulation in practice can raise concern with some clinicians with limited experience; however, Dr. Dunning makes the participants at ease and comfortable with learning the techniques.
Thrust manipulation techniques are demonstrated and instructed for the entire spine and pelvis with a strong evidence-based explanation. Unlike other dry needling courses that I have attended, Dr. Spinal Manipulative Therapy. Certification in. Dry Needling. Diploma in. Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapy.
