CERVICAL CONDITIONING
Recently, the exercise program portion of the ODES software has been reintroduced. Included
in this feature is a protocol for cervical conditioning. This function was created specifically for
Multi-Cervical™ Units and allows evaluators to customize cervical exercise programs for their
clients. Results are directly integrated into the software, making this feature extremely user
friendly, functional, and efficient.
The Rehabilitation Program on the MCU for patients suffering cervical conditions is covered
extensively during the training program on The Melbourne Protocol. This training program in-
cludes basic to advanced set-up to accommodate various patients groups including:
• Whiplash and Associated Disorders (WAD)
• Acute and Chronic Cervical Injury Management
• Specific Cervical Pathologies
• Hypertrophy Training for the Athlete

The cervical conditioning protocol can be located within the Exercise Program Menu. To locate
it, click on the Exercise Program Button located on the main screen of your ODES software
