Sports & Conditioning Specialist 14. Health Education Specialist 15. Case Management 16. Health Promotion & Wellness 11. Assistive Technology Other specific intervention certifications would include training in SI, NDT, weight training, ergonomic assessment specialists, pilates, yoga, Arjuna techniques, Alexander techniques, and probably many more that keep popping up.
