Extremities Course

(All joints outside the spine) June 19 – 22, 2026 from 9 – 17 o'clock

• Thumb (carpometacarpal and interphalangeal joints)
• Metacarpal bones
• Carpal bones (dorsal and palmar subluxation)
• Carpal tunnel syndrome

Dear course participants,

please note the following regulations in case the unexpected occurs:

Unfortunately, short-notice "no-shows" have occurred frequently in the past, which unfortunately compels me to take this "measure," which I am hereby communicating in advance of a course booking, as I must also plan a course with colleagues and assistants.

General terms and conditions for cancellation of a booked seminar participation (regardless of the reason):
Cancellation 60 or more days before the start of the course/seminar: No cancellation fees
Cancellation 59 to 30 days before the start of the course/seminar: 5% of the total amount
Cancellation 29 to 15 days before the start of the course/seminar: 20% of the total amount
