Two months ahead of NPAO’s annual conference, join Kintec’s clinical team for a high value, fast-paced webinar designed specifically for Nurse Practitioners. In this pre conference primer, we’ll break down the most common conditions you see weekly—plantar fasciitis, bunions, metatarsalgia, knee OA—and show you how our evidence-driven, data powered model guides assessment, treatment, and follow-up.
You’ll learn:
• When to treat in clinic vs. when a biomechanical referral adds value
• What happens when your patient is assessed in our system
• Early management strategies you can apply immediately
• How our continuous data loop supports your care plan
This webinar sets the foundation for the hands-on pre-conference workshop. Come prepared, confident, and ready to get even more out of the in-person session. Perfect for NPs who want practical tools, clearer referral pathways, and better outcomes for patients with foot and lower-limb pain.
