General
Who is this course for?
Our training is designed for sports medicine professionals, including athletic trainers, physical therapists, chiropractors, and physicians who want to improve their diagnostic ultrasound skills.
What body regions are covered in the course?
Coverage depends on your training. Lower Extremity Soft Tissue Ultrasound focuses on lower extremity tendon and ligament assessment. Advanced Diagnostic Ultrasound & Dry Needling covers cervical, shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, ankle, and lumbar regions. Review the individual course page for its scope.
Do I need prior ultrasound experience?
Experience requirements depend on the training you choose. Review the individual course page and contact us if you need help deciding which option fits your background.
Can the course content be customized to our sport or clinical setting?
Yes! Our training is highly adaptable. Whether you work with team sports, runners, military personnel, or orthopedic patients, we tailor the scanning protocols, case examples, and hands-on practice to match your most common injuries and needs.
Can we combine diagnostic ultrasound with another training topic like dry needling or rehab strategies?
Absolutely. Hybrid courses (e.g., “Ultrasound-Guided Dry Needling for the Lower Limb”) are a great way to connect your skills across disciplines. We’ll co-design the experience with you.
Logistics & Scheduling
How long is the course?
Lower Extremity Soft Tissue Ultrasound is delivered directly to teams, with participant access to its learning portal. Advanced Ultrasound & Dry Needling is self-paced with 12-month access. Mentorship follows a structured progression; review the program details for its format.
Can this course be hosted at our facility?
Yes, we offer on-site training tailored to your team’s schedule and injury patterns. You can also join upcoming regional workshops.
What’s included in the course package?
For in-person workshops, Pura Health lists hands-on instruction, a course guide, post-course scan references, and a certificate of completion. Online and mentorship resources vary; check your selected training for the materials included.
Accreditation & Certification
Is this course eligible for CEUs or CMEs?
Credit information is specific to your training and profession. For team-delivered Lower Extremity training, refer to the documentation for your team session or contact Pura Health. A certificate of completion does not automatically confer CME credit.
Will I receive a certificate of completion?
Yes. All participants receive a digital certificate upon completion of the course, which includes course hours and content breakdown for CEU or CME reporting. This can be submitted to your licensing board, employer, or credentialing body as needed.
Is this course accepted for physical therapy CEUs in my state?
Continuing education acceptance depends on the course, profession, licensing board, and jurisdiction. Confirm the current approval and required documentation for your selected session before enrolling.
Is this course approved for athletic trainers (ATs)?
Pura Health lists BOC-approved provider status. Confirm the number of credits and the approval details for your selected course or session before enrolling.
Results & Value
How is this different from other ultrasound courses?

What can I expect to gain from the course?
